Gene Information

human ... PEX3(8504)

General description

Peroxisomal biogenesis factor 3 (PEX3, TRG18), a PEX19 docking protin, and PEX19 have key roles in the biogenesis of peroxisomes. Membrane-anchored PEX3 functions as a PEX19 receptor, wherein PEX19 recognizes newly synthesized peroxisomal membrane proteins (PMP) and recruits them to the peroxisomal membrane.

Specificity

Anti-PEX3 polyclonal antibody reacts with bovine, human, mouse, rat, canine, zebrafish, and chicken peroxisomal biogenesis factor 3 proteins.

Immunogen

Synthetic peptide directed towards the N terminal region of human PEX3

Application

Anti-PEX3 polyclonal antibody is used to tag peroxisomal biogenesis factor 3 for detection and quantitation by Western blotting and in plasma by immunohistochemical (IHC) techniques. It is used as a probe to determine the roles of peroxisomal biogenesis factor 3 in peroxisome biosynthesis.

Biochem/physiol Actions

PEX3 is involved in peroxisome biosynthesis and integrity. It assembles membrane vesicles before the matrix proteins are translocated. As a docking factor for PEX19, it is necessary for the import of peroxisomal membrane proteins in the peroxisomes.

Sequence

Synthetic peptide located within the following region: KYGQKKIREIQEREAAEYIAQARRQYHFESNQRTCNMTVLSMLPTLREAL

Physical form

Purified antibody supplied in 1x PBS buffer with 0.09% (w/v) sodium azide and 2% sucrose.
