Rabbit anti-Human YWHAH Polyclonal Antibody

Uniprot Id

Q04917

Target Species

Human

Target Name

YWHAH

Target Full Name

14-3-3 protein eta

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. Negatively regulates the kinase activity of PDPK1.

Target Protein Families

14-3-3 family

Target Tissue Specificity

Expressed mainly in the brain and present in other tissues albeit at lower levels.

Target Research Area

Signal Transduction

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 99% identical to the mouse, rat and bovine orthologs. This gene contains a 7 bp repeat sequence in its 5' UTR, and changes in the number of this repeat have been associated with early-onset schizophrenia and psychotic bipolar disorder.
