Gene Information
human ... HTT(3064)
General description
Huntingtin (HTT) is a 3144 amino-acid scaffold protein. The gene encoding it is localized on human chromosome 4p16.3 and has 67 exons.
Immunogen
Huntingtin recombinant protein epitope signature tag (PrEST)
Application
Anti-HTT 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
Huntingtin (HTT) takes part in various cellular functions. It associates with dynein and is involved in organelle transport in neurons. Mutations in the gene encoding HTT have been linked to Huntington′s disease.
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:
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.

Huntingtin is the protein mutated in Huntington disease, a dominant inherited neurodegenerative disorder. Huntingtin is ubiquitously expressed throughout the body, however its role outside the central nervous system has been overlooked. This review focuses on the peripheral distribution of huntingtin.
