General description
Adenomatous polyposis coli protein (APC) is encoded by the gene mapped to human chromosome 5q. The encoded protein is composed of 2843 amino acids. The protein contains armadillo (ARM) repeats at N-terminal end, 15- and 20-amino acid β-catenin-binding repeats in the central region and a basic region and a TXV sequence involved in discs Large (Dlg) binding in the C-terminal end. APC consists of numerous transcripts and they are expressed in a tissue specific manner.

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
APC (adenomatous polyposis coli) gene encodes a protein that functions as an antagonist of the Wnt signaling pathway. The gene is a tumor suppressor as mutations in this gene are associated with colorectal carcinomas and adenoma. It is found to be associated with β-catenin and functions in cell adhesion. Alterations in this gene can cause familial adenomatous polyposis (FAP).
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:
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.
