Anti-S100 alpha 6/S100A6 Antibody Picoband® (FITC Conjugate)

S100 calcium-binding protein A6 (S100A6) is a protein that in humans is encoded by the S100A6 gene. The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the S100 family of proteins containing 2 EF-hand calcium-binding motifs. S100 proteins are localized in the cytoplasm and/or nucleus of a wide range of cells, and involved in the regulation of a number of cellular processes such as cell cycle progression and differentiation. And S100 genes include at least 13 members which are located as a cluster on chromosome 1q21. This protein may function in stimulation of Ca2+-dependent insulin release, stimulation of prolactin secretion, and exocytosis. Chromosomal rearrangements and altered expression of this gene have been implicated in melanoma.

E.coli-derived human S100 alpha 6 recombinant protein (Position: M1-G90). Human S100 alpha 6 shares 96.6% and 95.5% amino acid (aa) sequence identity with mouse and rat S100 alpha 6, respectively.

May function as calcium sensor and modulator, contributing to cellular calcium signaling. May function by interacting with other proteins, such as TPR-containing proteins, and inly play a role in many physiological processes such as the reorganization of the actin cytoskeleton and in cell motility. Binds 2 calcium ions. Calcium binding is cooperative. .
