Rabbit anti-Human PLCZ1 Polyclonal Antibody

Uniprot Id

Q86YW0

Target Species

Human

Target Name

PLCZ1

Target Full Name

1-phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate phosphodiesterase zeta-1

Target Function

The production of the second messenger molecules diacylglycerol (DAG) and inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (IP3) is mediated by activated phosphatidylinositol-specific phospholipase C enzymes. In vitro, hydrolyzes PtdIns(4,5)P2 in a Ca(2+)-dependent manner. Triggers intracellular Ca(2+) oscillations in oocytes solely during M phase and is involved in inducing oocyte activation and initiating embryonic development up to the blastocyst stage. Is therefore a strong candidate for the egg-activating soluble sperm factor that is transferred from the sperm into the egg cytoplasm following gamete membrane fusion. May exert an inhibitory effect on phospholipase-C-coupled processes that depend on calcium ions and protein kinase C, including CFTR trafficking and function.

Target Involvement

Spermatogenic failure 17 (SPGF17)

Target Subcellular Location

Nucleus. Cytoplasm, perinuclear region.

Target Tissue Specificity

Expressed specifically in testis and sperm. Weakly expressed in pancreatic-duct cells. Up-regulated in pancreatic-duct cells from patients with cystic fibrosis.
