Opis

Opis ogólny

DCT (dopachrome tautomerase) belongs to melanocyte/melanoma differentiation antigens (MDA) family. It is a melanoma associated antigen. It contains 519 amino acids and has five isoforms in humans, due to alternative splicing. It contains a putative transmembrane domain, encoded by exon 8, which is essential for its activity. TRP-LT and TRP-2-6b isoforms of DCT are localized to the membrane of melanosomes, and possess dopachrome tautomerase activity. TRP-2-INT2 isoform is a shorter protein with only 237 amino acids. TRP- 2-8b isoform does not contain the transmembrane domain, and hence is devoid of dopachrome tautomerase activity. This gene is located on human chromosome 13q32.

Zastosowanie

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.

Działania biochem./fizjol.

DCT (dopachrome tautomerase) acts as an antigen to cytotoxic T-cell responses, in melanoma. It also acts an antigen to cytotoxic T-cells in malignant glioma. Thus, it has potential as a target antigen for developing immunotherapies for glioma patients. Polymorphisms in this gene are linked to increased susceptibility to degenerative disc disease, in Chinese Han population. DCT is absent in the peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) of vitiligo patients, but is present in low levels in healthy individuals. This lack of DCT in PBMC of vitiligo patients might be responsible for peripheral intolerance in vitiligo. It also prevents dopamine and hydroquinone-induced toxicity in human embryonic kidney (HEK) cells.

Cechy i korzyści

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.
