Gene Information

human ... UFM1(51569)

General description

Ubiquitin fold modifier 1 (UFM1) is a 9.1kDa ubiquitin-like protein with 85 amino acids. It is encoded by the gene mapped to human chromosome 13q13.3. UFM1 is expressed both in nucleus and cytoplasm. UFM1 is expressed in human cells as a precursor with a C-terminal Ser-Cys dipeptide extension, which is then activated by ubiquitin-like modifier activating enzyme 5 (UBA5) by cleaving C- terminal end.

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

Ubiquitin-fold modifier 1 (UFM1) together with activating signal co-integrator 1 (ASC1) plays a vital role in regulation of breast cancer. Alteration in the UFM1 pathway due to ubiquitin-like modifier activating enzyme 5 (UBA5) mutation, leads to autosomal recessive cerebellar ataxia (ARCA).

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.
