Anti-TRAPPC3 Antibody

TRAPPC3 (trafficking protein particle complex 3, also known as Bet3) is a component of TRAPP, a complex involved in the tethering of transport vesicles to the cis-Golgi membrane. There are three TRAPP complexes identified in yeast with distinct roles: TRAPPI in ER-Golgi traffic, TRAPPII in intra-Golgi and endosome-Golgi traffic, and TRAPPIII in autophagy. Recently it has been proposed that at least two complexes exist in mammals. TRAPPC3 is the most conserved subunit of TRAPP and has been used to precipitate the intact tethering complex both from yeast and from human cells. It has also been reported that TRAPPC3 is required for Rabin8 centrosome trafficking and ciliogenesis. Expressed ubiquitously, TRAPPC3 protein is present in both membrane-bound and cytosolic forms. This antibody recognizes the endogenous 20-22 kDa TRAPPC3 in multiple cell lines. (15728249, 21273506, 23394947)
