Gene Information

human ... GPM6B(2824)

General description

Neuronal membrane glycoprotein M6-b is a protein encoded by the GPM6B gene in humans and is located at Xp22.2. The protein belongs to the proteolipid protein family.

Immunogen

Neuronal membrane glycoprotein M6-b recombinant protein epitope signature tag (PrEST)

Application

Anti-GPM6B 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

Neuronal membrane glycoprotein M6-b is a protein encoded by the GPM6B gene in humans and is located at Xp22.2. The protein belongs to the proteolipid protein family. It plays an important role in neural development. Defect in this gene is associated with several neurological disorders such as Aicardi syndrome, Rett syndrome, X-linked Charcot-Marie-Tooth neuropathy and X-linked mental retardation syndromes. The gene is up-regulated during osteoblast differentiation. It is a novel regulator of osteoblast function and bone formation. The gene is considered as a good candidate gene for Pelizaeus-Merzbacher-like syndrome.

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.
