Gene Information

human ... UBE3A(7337)

General description

The ubiquitin protein ligase E3A (UBE3A) gene is mapped to human chromosome 15q11-q13. UBE3A codes for E6-AP ubiquitin-protein ligase, which belongs to E3 ubiquitin ligase protein family. The members of this family consist of a homologous to E6AP C-terminus (HECT) domain involved in the transfer of ubiquitin from E2 to the substrate.

Immunogen

ubiquitin protein ligase E3A recombinant protein epitope signature tag (PrEST)

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

The ubiquitin protein ligase E3A (UBE3A) functions as an E3 ligase in the ubiquitin-proteasome pathway and acts as a transcriptional co-activator of steroid hormone receptors such as progesterone and estrogen. During papillomavirus infection, ubiquitin protein ligase E3A (UBE3A), along with E6 viral protein, plays a vital role in degradation of the cell cycle regulatory protein p53. Anomalistic degradation of p53 can cause cervical cancer. Inactivation or deletion of UBE3A gene leads to the neurodevelopmental disorder Angelman syndrome (AS), while overexpression of maternal UBE3A gene is associated with autism pathogenesis. Therefore, UBE3A level has to be properly controlled for normal brain development.

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.
