Rabbit anti-Human YWHAG Polyclonal Antibody

Uniprot Id

P61981

Target Species

Human

Target Name

YWHAG

Target Full Name

14-3-3 protein gamma

Target Function

Adapter protein implicated in the regulation of a large spectrum of both general and specialized signaling pathways. Binds to a large number of partners, usually by recognition of a phosphoserine or phosphothreonine motif. Binding generally results in the modulation of the activity of the binding partner.

Target Subcellular Location

Cytoplasm.

Target Protein Families

14-3-3 family

Target Tissue Specificity

Highly expressed in brain, skeletal muscle, and heart.

Target Synonyms

14 3 3 gamma; 14 3 3 protein gamma; 14 3 3 protein gamma subtype; 14 3 3gamma; 14-3-3 protein gamma; 1433G_HUMAN; 3 monooxygenase/tryptophan 5 monooxgenase activation protein gamma polypeptide; KCIP 1; KCIP-1; KCIP1; N-terminally processed; Protein kinase C inhibitor protein 1; Tyrosine 3 monooxygenase/tryptophan 5 monooxygenase activation protein gamma polypeptide; Ywhag

Target Background

This gene product belongs to the 14-3-3 family of proteins which mediate signal transduction by binding to phosphoserine-containing proteins. This highly conserved protein family is found in both plants and mammals, and this protein is 100% identical to the rat ortholog. It is induced by growth factors in human vascular smooth muscle cells, and is also highly expressed in skeletal and heart muscles, suggesting an important role for this protein in muscle tissue. It has been shown to interact with RAF1 and protein kinase C, proteins involved in various signal transduction pathways.
