Recombinant Human Exocyst complex component 1 (EXOC1), Truncated

Uniprot Id

Q9NV70

Target Species

Human

Target Name

EXOC1

Target Full Name

Exocyst complex component 1

Target Function

Component of the exocyst complex involved in the docking of exocytic vesicles with fusion sites on the plasma membrane.; (Microbial infection) Has an antiviral effect against flaviviruses by affecting viral RNA transcription and translation through the sequestration of elongation factor 1-alpha (EEF1A1). This results in decreased viral RNA synthesis and decreased viral protein translation.

Target Subcellular Location

Midbody, Midbody ring. Cytoplasm. Cytoplasm, perinuclear region.

Target Protein Families

SEC3 family

Target Synonyms

BM-012; exoc1; EXOC1_HUMAN; Exocyst complex component 1; Exocyst complex component Sec3; FLJ10893; SEC3; SEC3 like 1; SEC3L1; SEC3P

Target Background

The protein encoded by this gene is a component of the exocyst complex, a multiple protein complex essential for targeting exocytic vesicles to specific docking sites on the plasma membrane. Though best characterized in yeast, the component proteins and functions of the exocyst complex have been demonstrated to be highly conserved in higher eukaryotes. At least eight components of the exocyst complex, including this protein, are found to interact with the actin cytoskeletal remodeling and vesicle transport machinery. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding distinct isoforms have been described.
