Foundational characteristics of cancer include proliferation, angiogenesis, migration, evasion of apoptosis, and cellular immortality. Find key markers for these cellular processes and antibodies to detect them.
The SUMOplot™ Analysis Program predicts and scores sumoylation sites in your protein. SUMOylation is a post-translational modification involved in various cellular processes, such as nuclear-cytosolic transport, transcriptional regulation, apoptosis, protein stability, response to stress, and progression through the cell cycle.
The Autophagy Receptor Motif Plotter predicts and scores autophagy receptor binding sites in your protein. Identifying proteins connected to this pathway is critical to understanding the role of autophagy in physiological as well as pathological processes such as development, differentiation, neurodegenerative diseases, stress, infection, and cancer.
MTMR1 Antibody (N-term) Blocking Peptide
Synthetic peptide
- SPECIFICATION
- CITATIONS
- PROTOCOLS
- BACKGROUND
| Primary Accession | Q9Z2C4 |
|---|---|
| Clone Names | 2020511 |
| Gene ID | 53332 |
|---|---|
| Other Names | Myotubularin-related protein 1, Phosphatidylinositol-3-phosphate phosphatase, Mtmr1 |
| Target/Specificity | The synthetic peptide sequence used to generate the antibody AP6801a was selected from the N-term region of human MTMR1 . 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 | Mtmr1 |
|---|---|
| Function | Lipid phosphatase that has high specificity for phosphatidylinositol 3-phosphate and has no activity with phosphatidylinositol 4-phosphate, phosphatidylinositol (4,5)- bisphosphate and phosphatidylinositol (3,4,5)-trisphosphate (PubMed:12217958). Activity with phosphatidylinositol (3,5)- bisphosphate is controversial; it has been shown for the human ortholog (By similarity). In contrast, PubMed:12217958 find no activity with this substrate. |
| Cellular Location | Cell membrane; Peripheral membrane protein; Cytoplasmic side. Cytoplasm |
| Tissue Location | Widely expressed. Detected in skeletal muscle, heart, lung, liver and brain. |

Background
MTM1 gene mutations cause X-linked myotubular myopathy. The corresponding protein, myotubularin, contains the consensus active site of tyrosine phosphatases (PTP) and is a tyrosine/serine phosphatase. The 3.7-kb MTMR1 mRNA is expressed ubiquitously. An additional 3.1-kb transcript was detected only in placenta. Analysis of the genomic region containing MTM1 and MTMR1 reveals that the 2 genes share a similar structure, suggesting that they are related and arose from an intrachromosomal gene duplication. The 2 main MTMR1 protein muscular isoforms, like myotubularin, dephosphorylate PI(3)P in vitro. There is a striking reduction in the level of the muscle-specific isoform and the appearance of an abnormal MTMR1 transcript in cultured differentiated muscle cells and in skeletal muscle from congenital myotonic dystrophy patients. MTMR1 may play a role in muscle formation, and may represent another target for abnormal mRNA splicing in myotonic dystrophy.
