Gene Information

human ... TSPAN13(27075)

General description

TSPAN13 (tetraspanin 13) gene encodes a protein belonging to the transmembrane 4 superfamily, also known as the tetraspanin family of proteins. They are integral membrane proteins characterized by the presence of four transmembrane hydrophobic domains. They are 200-300 amino acid long and contain one small extracellular loop of 13-30 amino acids, a short intracellular sequence, and a second, large extracellular loop. This large loop contains a CCG motif (Cys-Cys-Gly) followed by 2-6 cys residues.

Immunogen

tetraspanin 13 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

TSPAN13 (tetraspanin 13) gene is found to be up-regulated in cases of prostate cancer and may play a role in its progression. It is also significantly overexpressed in mucinous, clear cell and endometrioid adenocarcinomas of the ovary, testicular germ cell tumors, bladder carcinoma and B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukaemia. It may serve as a potent breast cancer suppressor gene.

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.
