Fhit (phospho Tyr114) Polyclonal Antibody

catalytic activity:P(1)-P(3)-bis(5'-adenosyl) triphosphate + H(2)O = ADP + AMP.,cofactor:Divalent cations. Magnesium, but manganese and to a lesser extent calcium or cobalt can be substituted; but not zinc, cadmium or nickel.,disease:A chromosomal aberration involving FHIT is observed in early onset bilateral and multifocal clear cell renal carcinoma [MIM:144700]. Translocation t(3;8) (3p14.2).,disease:Associated with digestive tract cancers. Numerous tumor types are found to have aberrant forms of FHIT protein due to deletions in a coding region of chromosome 3p14.2 including the fragile site locus FRA3B.,function:Cleaves A-5'-PPP-5'A to yield AMP and ADP. Possible tumor suppressor for specific tissues.,mass spectrometry: PubMed:15007172,similarity:Contains 1 HIT domain.,subunit:Homodimer.,tissue specificity:Low levels expressed in all tissues tested. Phospho-FHIT observed in liver and kidney, but not in brain and lung. Phospho-FHIT undetected in all tested human tumor cell lines.,
