- BACKGROUND
Primary Accession | Q8WWG1 |
---|
Gene ID | 145957 |
---|---|
Other Names | Pro-neuregulin-4, membrane-bound isoform, Pro-NRG4, Neuregulin-4, NRG-4, NRG4 |
Target/Specificity | The synthetic peptide sequences used to generate the antibody AP6225a was selected from the center and C-terminal region of human NRG4. A 10 to 100 fold molar excess to antibody is recommended. Precise conditions should be optimized for a particular assay. |
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 | NRG4 |
---|---|
Function | Low affinity ligand for the ERBB4 tyrosine kinase receptor. Concomitantly recruits ERBB1 and ERBB2 coreceptors, resulting in ligand-stimulated tyrosine phosphorylation and activation of the ERBB receptors. Does not bind to the ERBB1, ERBB2 and ERBB3 receptors (By similarity). |
Cellular Location | [Pro-neuregulin-4, membrane-bound isoform]: Cell membrane; Single-pass type I membrane protein. Note=Does not seem to be active. |

Background
The nuclear protein p100 is a proliferation-associated protein whose expression is restricted to cell cycle phases S, G2, and M. Exclusively expressed in proliferating cells from the transition G1/S until the end of cytokinesis. During mitosis it is strictly associated with the spindle pole and with the mitotic spindle, whereas during S and G2, it is diffusely distributed throughout the nucleus. The full-length cDNA encodes a 747-amino acid protein with a putative ATP/GTP-binding site motif. RT-PCR analysis demonstrated strong expression of in lung carcinoma cell lines but not in normal lung tissues. Expression was also found in adult placenta, skeletal muscle, thymus, testis, and small intestine and in fetal brain, liver, and kidney. P100 is also correlated to cancer prognosis.
