Anti-TWA1 GID8 Antibody

TWA1 was identified through a two hybrid-associated protein screen with RanBPM. TWA1 is well conserved through evolution and is localized within the nucleus. It interacts with RanBP9 and comprises a protein complex with RanBPM and Muskelin. TWA1 was found to possess the LisH-CTLH motif which is detected in proteins involved in microtubule dynamics, cell migration, nucleokinesis and chromosome segregation. These functions overlap with functions suggested for the RanGTPase cycle. Recent findings suggested that there is an as yet uncovered function of the RanGTPase cycle.

TWA1 antibody was raised against a 17 amino acid synthetic peptide near the carboxy terminus of human TWA1. The immunogen is located within the last 50 amino acids of TWA1.

Core component of the CTLH E3 ubiquitin-protein ligase complex that selectively accepts ubiquitin from UBE2H and mediates ubiquitination and subsequent proteasomal degradation of the transcription factor HBP1 (PubMed:29911972) . Acts as a positive regulator of Wnt signaling pathway by promoting beta-catenin (CTNNB1) nuclear accumulation (PubMed:28829046) .

TWA1 antibody can be stored at 4°C for three months and -20°C, stable for up to one year. Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles. Antibodies should not be exposed to prolonged high temperatures.
