Anti-SERINC3 Antibody Picoband® Fluoro594 Conjugated

Serine incorporator 3 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the SERINC3 gene. Also found on the membranes of the Golgi apparatus within cells, TDE1 is highly expressed in neuronal populations but is also found in thymus, kidney, liver and testis. Expression levels of TDE1 in tumors can be as much as tenfold the amount found in normal tissue of the same type. This increased expression implicates TDE1 as being involved in the cellular transformation from normal to malignant tissue. It is believed TDE1 contributes to oncogenesis by partially protecting cells from serum starvation and etoposide-induced apoptosis. The mechanism through which TDE1 protects cells is poorly understood, but may involve aberrant methylation of TDE1 complexes.

Expressed in breast, ductal and invasive ductal carcinomas of the breast, sporadic colorectal adenomas and carcinomas (at protein level) . Expressed in fetal brain. Expressed in lung, amygdala, eye, prostate, pancreatic and prostate cancers, head and neck tumors and embryonal tumor.

Transcriptional regulator that acts as an activator. Promotes beta-catenin transcriptional activity. Plays a role in tumorigenesis. Enhances the neoplastic transforming activity of CTNNB1.
