General description

EVC (Ellis van Creveld) gene is localized to the human chromosome 4p16, and is composed of 21 exons, spanning 120kb. The encoded protein is composed of 992 amino acids. This gene, along with EVC2 gene, forms the EVC gene family.

Immunogen

Ellis-van Creveld syndrome protein recombinant protein epitope signature tag (PrEST)

Application

Anti-EVC 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

Mutations in EVC (Ellis van Creveld) gene are responsible for EVC syndrome, which is an autosomal recessive disorder and is characterized by postaxial polydactyly, short ribs and limbs and dysplastic teeth and nails. This gene is over-expressed in adult T-cell leukemia (ATL) and human T-cell leukemia virus type I (HTLV-1)-infected cells. Thus, it has potential as a marker and therapeutic target in HTLV-1-infected T-cells. This gene plays a key role in hedgehog signaling, especially during the growth of cartilage plate. It is localized at the basal body and cilia membrane.

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.
