Gene Information

human ... PRCC(5546)

General description

The gene PRCC (papillary renal cell carcinoma translocation-associated gene) is mapped to human chromosome 1q21.1. It is ubiquitously expressed. The protein localizes in the nucleus.

Immunogen

Proline-rich protein PRCC recombinant protein epitope signature tag (PrEST)

Application

All Prestige Antibodies Powered by Atlas Antibodies are developed and validated by the Human Protein Atlas (HPA) project and as a result, are supported by the most extensive characterization in the industry.

The Human Protein Atlas project can be subdivided into three efforts: Human Tissue Atlas, Cancer Atlas, and Human Cell Atlas. The antibodies that have been generated in support of the Tissue and Cancer Atlas projects have been tested by immunohistochemistry against hundreds of normal and disease tissues and through the recent efforts of the Human Cell Atlas project, many have been characterized by immunofluorescence to map the human proteome not only at the tissue level but now at the subcellular level. These images and the collection of this vast data set can be viewed on the Human Protein Atlas (HPA) site by clicking on the Image Gallery link. We also provide Prestige Antibodies® protocols and other useful information.

Biochem/physiol Actions

In renal cell carcinoma, chromosomal translocation results in PRCC (papillary renal cell carcinoma translocation-associated gene)-TFE3 (bHLH-LZ transcription factor) fusion protein. The fusion protein induces expression of cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor p21-CIP1 (CDK-interacting protein 1) and thereby causes cell cycle delay. In addition, PRCC-TFE3 is unable to bind with PRCC-interacting mitotic checkpoint protein (MAD2B), resulting in mitotic checkpoint defect.

Features and Benefits

Prestige Antibodies® are highly characterized and extensively validated antibodies with the added benefit of all available characterization data for each target being accessible via the Human Protein Atlas portal linked just below the product name at the top of this page. The uniqueness and low cross-reactivity of the Prestige Antibodies® to other proteins are due to a thorough selection of antigen regions, affinity purification, and stringent selection. Prestige antigen controls are available for every corresponding Prestige Antibody and can be found in the linkage section.

Every Prestige Antibody is tested in the following ways:
  • IHC tissue array of 44 normal human tissues and 20 of the most common cancer type tissues.
  • Protein array of 364 human recombinant protein fragments.

Previously, we found that in t(X;1)(p11;q21)-positive renal cell carcinomas the bHLH-LZ transcription factor TFE3 is fused to a novel protein designated PRCC. In addition, we found that the PRCCTFE3 fusion protein, which has retained all known functional domains of TFE3

The papillary renal cell carcinoma (RCC)-associated (X;1)(p11;q21) translocation fuses the genes PRCC and TFE3 and leads to cancer by an unknown molecular mechanism. We here demonstrate that the mitotic checkpoint protein MAD2B interacts with PRCC. The PRCCTFE3 fusion protein retains
