Rabbit anti-Human SYNE3 Polyclonal Antibody

Uniprot Id

Q6ZMZ3

Target Species

Human

Target Name

SYNE3

Target Full Name

Nesprin-3

Target Function

As a component of the LINC (LInker of Nucleoskeleton and Cytoskeleton) complex involved in the connection between the nuclear lamina and the cytoskeleton. The nucleocytoplasmic interactions established by the LINC complex play an important role in the transmission of mechanical forces across the nuclear envelope and in nuclear movement and positioning. Probable anchoring protein which tethers the nucleus to the cytoskeleton by binding PLEC which can associate with the intermediate filament system. Plays a role in the regulation of aortic epithelial cell morphology, and is required for flow-induced centrosome polarization and directional migration in aortic endothelial cells.

Target Subcellular Location

Nucleus outer membrane; Single-pass type IV membrane protein. Nucleus envelope. Rough endoplasmic reticulum.

Target Protein Families

Nesprin family

Target Tissue Specificity

Expressed in aortic endothelial cells (at protein level).

Target Synonyms

Target Background

Enables actin filament binding activity and cytoskeleton-nuclear membrane anchor activity. Involved in cytoskeleton organization; establishment of protein localization to membrane; and regulation of cell shape. Located in nuclear membrane. Part of meiotic nuclear membrane microtubule tethering complex. Biomarker of Huntington's disease.
