NBR1 (7C3) Mouse Monoclonal Antibody

The protein encoded by this gene was originally identified as an ovarian tumor antigen monitored in ovarian cancer. The encoded protein contains a B-box/coiled-coil motif, which is present in many genes with transformation potential. It functions as a specific autophagy receptor for the selective autophagic degradation of peroxisomes by forming intracellular inclusions with ubiquitylated autophagic substrates. This gene is located on a region of chromosome 17q21.1 that is in close proximity to the BRCA1 tumor suppressor gene. Alternative splicing of this gene results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Apr 2014], caution:Was originally (PubMed:8069304) thought to be the ovarian carcinoma antigen CA125., domain:The OPR domain mediates interaction with SQSTM1., similarity:Contains 1 OPR domain., similarity:Contains 1 UBA domain., similarity:Contains 1 ZZ-type zinc finger., subunit:Homooligomer and heterooligomer. Interacts with SQSTM1, titin/TTN and RNF29.
