Format | Peptides are lyophilized in a solid powder format. Peptides can be reconstituted in solution using the appropriate buffer as needed. |
Storage | Maintain refrigerated at 2-8°C for up to 6 months. For long term storage store at -20°C. |
Precautions | This product is for research use only. Not for use in diagnostic or therapeutic procedures. |
Name | IFT57 |
---|---|
Synonyms | DERP8, ESRRBL1, HIPPI |
Function | Required for the formation of cilia. Plays an indirect role in sonic hedgehog signaling, cilia being required for all activity of the hedgehog pathway (By similarity). Has pro-apoptotic function via its interaction with HIP1, leading to recruit caspase-8 (CASP8) and trigger apoptosis. Has the ability to bind DNA sequence motif 5'- AAAGACATG-3' present in the promoter of caspase genes such as CASP1, CASP8 and CASP10, suggesting that it may act as a transcription regulator; however the relevance of such function remains unclear. |
Cellular Location | Cell projection, cilium {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q8BXG3}. Cytoplasm, cytoskeleton, cilium basal body {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q5EA95}. Note=Concentrates within the inner segment of cilia. |
Tissue Location | Present in many tissues such as brain, thymus, lymph node, lung, liver, skin and kidney (at protein level) |
