Anti-PAR-3/PARD3 Antibody Picoband®

Partitioning defective 3 homolog is a protein that in humans is encoded by the PARD3 gene. This gene encodes a member of the PARD protein family. PARD family members interact with other PARD family members and other proteins; they affect asymmetrical cell division and polarized cell growth. Multiple alternatively spliced transcript variants have been described for this gene.

C-C chemokine receptor type 1; C-C CKR-1; CC-CKR-1; CCR-1; CCR1; Macrophage inflammatory protein 1-alpha receptor; MIP-1alpha-R; RANTES-R; CD191; Ccr1; Cmkbr1

Receptor for a C-C type chemokine. Binds to MIP-1-alpha, RANTES, and less efficiently, to MIP-1-beta or MCP-1 and subsequently transduces a signal by increasing the intracellular calcium ions level. Responsible for affecting stem cell proliferation.
