Antibodies are purified by protein A and peptide affinity chromatography.\n\u003cb\u003eBackground\u003c\/b\u003e\nGTPase immune-associated proteins (GIMAP), also known as immune-associated nucleotide-binding (IAN) proteins, are evolutionarily conserved GTP-binding proteins involved in lymphocyte development, inflammation, and autoimmune diseases (reviewed in 1,2). Human GTPase IMAP family member 5 (GIMAP5, hIan5) is the homolog of the rat Ian4 protein that is mutated in severe cases of T-cell lymphopenia and insulin-dependent diabetes in Biobreeding diabetes-prone (BB-DP) rats (3,4). GIMAP5 protein is preferentially expressed in CD4- and CD8-positive T-cells as well as B-cell lymphomas (4). Research studies using GIMAP5-deficient mice show that GIMAP5 protein is critical for survival of peripheral T-cells, hematopoietic stem cells, and progenitor cells (5-7). Additional studies indicate that GIMAP5 deficiency leads to a loss of immunological tolerance (8). Polymorphisms in the human gene are associated with systemic lupus erythematosus and type I diabetes (9-11). Potential mechanisms for GIMAP5 control of cell survival include regulation of Bcl-2 family proteins, mitochondrial integrity, lysosomal function, and calcium regulation (5,7, 11-14).\n\u003cb\u003eAlternate Names\u003c\/b\u003e\nFLJ11296; GIMA5; GIMAP5; GTPase IMAP family member 5; GTPase, IMAP family member 5; hIAN5; HIMAP3; IAN-5; IAN4; IAN4L1; IAN5; IMAP3; immune associated nucleotide 4 like 1; Immune-associated nucleotide-binding protein 5; immunity associated protein 3; Immunity-associated nucleotide 4-like 1 protein; Immunity-associated nucleotide 5 protein; Immunity-associated protein 3; inhibitor of radiation- and OA-induced apoptosis, Irod\/Ian5; IROD\n\n\u003cb\u003eSpecification\u003c\/b\u003e\n\nREACTIVITY: H\nSENSITIVITY: Endogenous\nMW (kDa): 30,32\nSOURCE: Rabbit","brand":"CST","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46797604651177,"sku":"14108S","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/iright.com\/products\/cst-14108s","provider":"Iright","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
