Anti-MNAT1 Antibody Picoband® Fluoro594 Conjugated

CDK-activating kinase assembly factor MAT1 is an enzyme that in humans is encoded by the MNAT1 gene. The protein encoded by this gene, along with cyclin H and CDK7, forms the CDK-activating kinase (CAK) enzymatic complex. This complex activates several cyclin-associated kinases and can also associate with TFIIH to activate transcription by RNA polymerase II. Two transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene.

Phospholipid-transporting ATPase IG (EC:7.6.2.1) ; ATPase IQ; ATPase class VI type 11C; P4-ATPase flippase complex alpha subunit ATP11C; ATP11C; ATPIG, ATPIQ

Catalytic component of a P4-ATPase flippase complex which catalyzes the hydrolysis of ATP coupled to the transport of aminophospholipids from the outer to the inner leaflet of various membranes and ensures the maintenance of asymmetric distribution of phospholipids. In the cell membrane of erythrocytes, it is required to maintain phosphatidylserine (PS) in the inner leaflet preventing its exposure on the surface. This asymmetric distribution is critical for the survival of erythrocytes in circulation since externalized PS is a phagocytic signal for splenic macrophages. Phospholipid translocation seems also to be implicated in vesicle formation and in uptake of lipid signaling molecules. Required for B cell differentiation past the pro-B cell stage. Seems to mediate PS flipping in pro-B cells. May be involved in the transport of cholestatic bile acids.
