Rabbit anti-Human PRAP1 Polyclonal Antibody

Uniprot Id

Q96NZ9

Target Species

Human

Target Name

PRAP1

Target Full Name

Proline-rich acidic protein 1

Target Function

Lipid-binding protein which promotes lipid absorption by facilitating MTTP-mediated lipid transfer (mainly triglycerides and phospholipids) and MTTP-mediated apoB lipoprotein assembly and secretion. Protects the gastrointestinal epithelium from irradiation-induced apoptosis. May play an important role in maintaining normal growth homeostasis in epithelial cells. Involved in p53/TP53-dependent cell survival after DNA damage. May downregulate the expression of MAD1L1 and exert a suppressive role in mitotic spindle assembly checkpoint in hepatocellular carcinomas.

Target Subcellular Location

Secreted. Endoplasmic reticulum.

Target Tissue Specificity

Highly expressed in the intestinal epithelial cells (at protein level). Abundantly expressed in the epithelial cells of the liver, kidney and cervix. Significantly down-regulated in hepatocellular carcinoma and right colon adenocarcinoma compared with the

Target Background

Predicted to enable triglyceride binding activity. Involved in DNA damage response, signal transduction by p53 class mediator resulting in cell cycle arrest; deactivation of mitotic spindle assembly checkpoint; and negative regulation of apoptotic process. Predicted to be located in endoplasmic reticulum and extracellular region.
