Anti-ITM2C Antibody Picoband® (Biotine Conjugate)

Integral membrane protein 2C is a protein that in humans is encoded by the ITM2C gene. The Integral membrane protein 2C (ITM2C) is a type II integral transmembrane protein belonging to a family composed of at least two other members, ITM2A and ITM2B. ITM2C, often called transmembrane protein BRI3, is highly expressed in brain tissue. Yeast two-hybrid screen system revealed that BRI3 could interact with beta-secretase beta-amyloid protein converting enzyme (BACE)1 and the microtubule-destabilizing protein SCG10 (STMN2). It may play a role in TNF-induced cell death and neuronal differentiation. BRI3 was found to inhibit the various processing of amyloid precursor protein (APP) by blocking the access of alpha- and beta-secretases to APP, competitive inhibition of APP processing by BRI3 may provide a new approach to Alzheimer disease (AD) therapy and prevention.

E.coli-derived human ITM2C recombinant protein (Position: E33-D226). Human ITM2C shares 94.8% amino acid (aa) sequence identity with mouse and rat ITM2C.
