It has a molecular mass of approximately 82 kDa. You will find HGS expressed broadly especially in epithelial tissues where it contributes to regulating various cellular mechanisms. Alternative names for HGS include HRS and HGS products which reflect its involvement in various signaling pathways and functions.\u003cbr\u003e\nBiological function summary\u003cbr\u003e\nThe HGS acts as a central player in endosomal sorting and targeting processes. It forms a part of the ESCRT-0 complex important for the degradation of surface receptors as it directs ubiquitinated membrane proteins to lysosomes for degradation. HGS interacts with other proteins in the complex such as STAM (Signal transducing adaptor molecule). This role explains its importance in maintaining proper cellular signaling and balance.\u003cbr\u003e\nPathways\u003cbr\u003e\nThe HGS protein participates in the endocytosis and ubiquitin-proteasome pathways. HGS plays a critical role in the degradation of epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) by assisting its trafficking to lysosomes. This function ties it to cellular communication and signal transduction particularly related to growth signals. Within these pathways HGS closely interacts with proteins such as the hepatocyte growth factor (HGF) and c-Met playing a regulatory role in signal attenuation.\u003cbr\u003e\nAberrations in the HGS function link to cancer and neurodegenerative disorders. Dysregulation of the HGS-mediated pathways can lead to abnormal cell growth and cancer progression particularly in epithelial tissues. Additionally research indicates a connection between HGS dysfunction and Alzheimer's disease as it may influence amyloid-beta processing. Interactions with proteins like EGFR and c-Met suggest that alterations in the HGS activity could have significant implications for disease pathogenesis and progression.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Abcam","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46853948637353,"sku":"ab72053","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/iright.com\/products\/abcam-ab72053","provider":"Iright","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
