Anti-HIC5/TGFB1I1 Antibody Picoband® Fluoro594 Conjugated

Transforming growth factor beta-1-induced transcript 1 protein is a protein that in humans is encoded by the TGFB1I1 gene. This gene encodes a coactivator of the androgen receptor, a transcription factor which is activated by androgen and has a key role in male sexual differentiation. The encoded protein is thought to regulate androgen receptor activity and may have a role to play in the treatment of prostate cancer. Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene.

Solute carrier family 12 member 5; Electroneutral potassium-chloride cotransporter 2; K-Cl cotransporter 2; hKCC2; Neuronal K-Cl cotransporter; SLC12A5; KCC2; KIAA1176

Mediates electroneutral potassium-chloride cotransport in mature neurons and is required for neuronal Cl- homeostasis. As major extruder of intracellular chloride, it establishes the low neuronal Cl- levels required for chloride influx after binding of GABA-A and glycine to their receptors, with subsequent hyperpolarization and neuronal inhibition. Involved in the regulation of dendritic spine formation and maturation.
