General description

TIMM17A (translocase of inner mitochondrial membrane 17 homolog A) is a member of the TIM23 presequence translocase of the inner mitochondrial membrane complexes. It is highly conserved across eukaryotes. It is one of the two TIM17 genes, and is expressed in adult and fetal tissues, where it forms complexes with TIM23 protein.

Immunogen

translocase of inner mitochondrial membrane 17 homolog A (yeast) 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

TIMM17A (translocase of inner mitochondrial membrane 17 homolog A) is a part of the inner-membrane complexes, which participate in the membrane insertion of mitochondrial proteins. This protein connects TIM23 with PAM complex, and is responsible for the dynamics of TIM23 complex. Inactivation of this protein leads to the collapse of TIM23 channel into a single pore. Thus, it is essential for maintaining pore structure and voltage gating of TIM23 channels. It prevents mitochondrial (mt)DNA instability and hence, prevents mtDNA loss. In human breast cancers, its expression is linked with unfavorable parameters including, tumor grade, NPI (Nottingham prognostic index), TNM stage and nodal positivity. Thus, in breast cancer, its expression is linked with poor prognosis.

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.
