NGEP Rabbit Polyclonal Antibody

This prostate-specific gene encodes a cytoplasmic protein, as well as a polytopic membrane protein which may serve as a target in prostate cancer diagnosis and immunotherapy. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms. [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2011], caution:It is uncertain whether Met-1 or Met-55 is the initiator., function:May act as a calcium-activated chloride channel. May play a role in cell-cell interactions., induction:Up-regulated by androgen., similarity:Belongs to the anoctamin family., subcellular location:Concentrates at sites of cell-cell contact., tissue specificity:Specifically expressed in epithelial cells of the prostate (at protein level) .
