Gene Information

human ... SCG5(6447)

General description

Secretogranin-5 (SCG5) is present in cells which contain secretory granules, such as neurons and endocrine cells. The gene encoding this protein is located on chromosome 15q13-q14.

Immunogen

Neuroendocrine protein 7B2 precursor 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

Secretogranin-5 (SCG5) functions as an anti-aggregation chaperone which is associated with many neurodegenerative diseases like Alzheimer disease. In vitro, it inhibits fibrillation and formation of amyloid-β (Aβ) and α-synuclein aggregates. SCG5 also plays a role as a molecular chaperone for proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 2 (PCSK2) and prevents its premature activation in the secretory pathway. SCG5 also has an important role in pituitary hormone secretion. It may be useful as a marker in human lung cancer diagnosis.

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.

The neuroendocrine polypeptide 7B2 is a highly conserved secretory protein selectively present in prohormone-producing cells equipped with a regulated secretory pathway. We find that the amino-terminal half of 7B2 is distantly related to chaperonins, a subclass of molecular chaperones. When
