It is expressed in a variety of tissues including epithelial cells and is highly present in the skin lungs and certain immune cells. EMP-1 belongs to the peripheral myelin protein 22 (PMP22) family sharing structural homology with other tetraspan membrane proteins. The protein serves as a cellular marker for epithelial and some mesenchymal-derived tissues.\u003cbr\u003e\nBiological function summary\u003cbr\u003e\nEMP-1 plays a significant role in cell-cell interactions and maintenance of cellular structures. It acts as part of a larger protein complex that contributes to cellular differentiation and tissue integrity. EMP-1 influences cell proliferation and modulates cell morphology which is essential during development and tissue repair. This protein also has a function in signal transduction where it may impact cellular responses to external stress.\u003cbr\u003e\nPathways\u003cbr\u003e\nEMP-1 integrates into multiple signaling pathways such as the MAPK\/ERK pathway and the Wnt signaling pathway. These pathways are important for processes like cell growth apoptosis and differentiation. EMP-1 interacts with proteins such as β-catenin and ERK thereby influencing the transcriptional regulation of genes involved in cell survival and growth. The protein’s presence in these pathways highlights its role in cellular physiological adaptations.\u003cbr\u003e\nEMP-1 has been associated with cancers such as lung cancer and head and neck squamous cell carcinoma. Its expression correlates with tumor progression and metastasis. EMP-1 interacts with proteins like E-cadherin potentially disrupting cell adhesion therefore facilitating cancer cell invasion. Understanding the role of EMP-1 in these diseases could help in developing therapeutic strategies targeting its molecular interactions.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Abcam","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46854375702697,"sku":"ab230445","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/iright.com\/ar\/products\/abcam-ab230445","provider":"Iright","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
