Gene Information

human ... BVES(11149)

General description

BVES (blood vessel epicardial substance) is the prototypic member of Popeye Domain Containing (Popdc) family, and is also called POPDC1. This family has two other members called POPDC2 and POPDC3. BVES is a transmembrane epithelial adhesion protein, containing the characteristic Popeye domain made of amino acids 172-266. It spans the membrane 3 times, and its C-terminal faces the cytoplasm. Homotypic interaction of BVES-BVES is essential for its localization to plasma membrane. It was initially identified in the cDNA library of developing heart.

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

BVES (blood vessel epicardial substance) is involved in the control of tight junction formation in epithelial cells. These tight junctions in turn control RhoA and ZONAB/DbpA, which is a y-box transcription factor. Therefore, the expression and residence of BVES has a regulatory effect on RhoA and ZONAB/DbpA activity. Suppression of this protein leads to DNA hypermethylation or the silencing of transcription. It is down-regulated in all stages of human colorectal carcinoma (CRC) and in adenomatous polyps. Its down-regulation is associated with epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT), and consequent colon tumorigenesis. BVES is also down-regulated in gastric cancer, and this is associated with enhanced tumorigenesis and poor patient prognosis. This protein is a key player in the development of embryo and cardiocyte differentiation. It is over-expressed in patients with congenital defects of septa and is linked with tetralogy of Fallot (TOF).

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.
