MTPN Polyclonal Antibody

function:Potential role in cerebellar morphogenesis. May function in differentiation of cerebellar neurons, particularly of granule cells. Seems to be associated with cardiac hypertrophy.,induction:By IFNA1.,miscellaneous:Elicits IgG antibody response in a subset of polycythemia vera patients and as well in patients with chronic myelogenous leukemia and prostate cancer receiving IFNA1 or other therapy, suggesting that it is broadly immunogenic.,miscellaneous:This protein is produced by a bicistronic gene which also produces the MPD6 protein from a non-overlapping reading frame. MPD6 belongs to a group of cryptic antigens without conventional genomic structure. It is encoded by a cryptic open reading frame located in the 3'-untranslated region of MTPN.,miscellaneous:This protein is produced by a bicistronic gene which also produces the MTPN protein from a non-overlapping reading frame. LUZP6 belongs to a group of cryptic antigens without conventional genomic structure. It is encoded by a cryptic open reading frame located in the 3'-untranslated region of MTPN.,similarity:Belongs to the myotrophin family.,similarity:Contains 3 ANK repeats.,tissue specificity:Ubiquitous.,tissue specificity:Widely expressed, highest levels found in brain, placenta, spleen, testis, and ovary. Up-regulated in some tumor cells.,
