Anti-WDR36 Antibody Picoband® Fluoro550 Conjugated

WD repeat-containing protein 36 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the WDR36 gene. This gene encodes a member of the WD repeat protein family. WD repeats are minimally conserved regions of approximately 40 amino acids typically bracketed by gly-his and trp-asp (GH-WD), which may facilitate formation of heterotrimeric or multiprotein complexes. Members of this family are involved in a variety of cellular processes, including cell cycle progression, signal transduction, apoptosis, and gene regulation. Mutations in this gene have been associated with adult-onset primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG) .

Protein phosphatase 1 regulatory subunit 14A;17 kDa PKC-potentiated inhibitory protein of PP1; Protein kinase C-potentiated inhibitor protein of 17 kDa; CPI-17; PPP1R14A; CPI17, PPP1INL

Inhibitor of PPP1CA. Has over 1000-fold higher inhibitory activity when phosphorylated, creating a molecular switch for regulating the phosphorylation status of PPP1CA substrates and smooth muscle contraction.
