Gene Information

human ... CRABP1(1381)

General description

CRABP1 (cellular retinoic acid-binding protein 1) is a member of the family of fatty acid-binding proteins with high binding affinity for retinoic acid (RA). It is a 15.4kDa protein localized in the cytoplasm.

Immunogen

Cellular retinoic acid-binding protein 1 recombinant protein epitope signature tag (PrEST)

Application

Anti-CRABP1 antibody produced in rabbit, a Prestige Antibody, is developed and validated by the Human Protein Atlas (HPA) project . Each antibody is tested by immunohistochemistry against hundreds of normal and disease tissues. These images can be viewed on the Human Protein Atlas (HPA) site by clicking on the Image Gallery link. The antibodies are also tested using immunofluorescence and western blotting. To view these protocols and other useful information about Prestige Antibodies and the HPA, visit sigma.com/prestige.

Biochem/physiol Actions

CRABP1 (cellular retinoic acid-binding protein 1) is mainly involved in the regulation of RA (retinoic acid) activity as well as in neurogenesis. It influences the RA-mediated differentiation and proliferation processes. It acts as a tumor suppressor gene in the esophageal carcinogenesis. The characteristics of CRABP1 protein in identifying the serous and clear cell ovarian adenocarcinoma have been reported in several studies.

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 impairment of retinoic acid (RA)-dependent signaling is a frequent event during carcinogenesis. Cellular retinoic acid-binding proteins (CRABP1 and CRABP2) are important modulators of RA activity. Up to date, the role of these proteins in cancer progression remains poorly investigated.
