This antibody can also detect a carboxy-terminal GGA3 fragment derived from caspase-mediated cleavage. This antibody may also cross-react with other proteins of unknown origin.\nSpecies Reactivity: Human, Mouse, Rat\n\u003cb\u003eSource \/ Purification\u003c\/b\u003e\nPolyclonal antibodies are produced by immunizing animals with a synthetic peptide corresponding to residues surrounding Asp520 of human GGA3. Antibodies are purified by protein A and peptide affinity chromatography.\n\u003cb\u003eBackground\u003c\/b\u003e\nGGA3 is a member of the GGA family of proteins which also includes GGA1 and GGA2. These proteins consist of four distinct segments: a VHS domain that binds the di-leucine sorting signal DXXLL; a GAT domain that binds Arf-GTP; a hinge region that recruits clathrin; and a GAE domain that has sequence similarity to Î³-adaptin and recruits a number of proteins. Arf1-GTPase recruits GGA3 to the trans-Golgi network. GGAs sort acid hydrolases to the lysosome and are involved in transporting proteins containing the DXXLL signal from the Golgi complex to the endosome (1). During apoptosis or cerebral ischemia, GGA3 is cleaved by caspase-3 at Asp313, reducing GGA3 levels and lysosomal degradation of Î²-secretase (BACE). The resulting elevated amount and activity of BACE plays a role in amyloid-Î² (AÎ²) production, consistent with BACE elevation and AÎ² accumulation in Alzheimer's Disease (2).\n\u003cb\u003eAlternate Names\u003c\/b\u003e\nADP-ribosylation factor-binding protein GGA3; GGA3; golgi associated, gamma adaptin ear containing, ARF binding protein 3; golgi-associated, gamma adaptin ear containing, ARF binding protein 3; Golgi-localized, gamma ear-containing, ARF-binding protein 3; KIAA0154\n\n\u003cb\u003eSpecification\u003c\/b\u003e\n\nREACTIVITY: H M R\nSENSITIVITY: Endogenous\nMW (kDa): 90\nSOURCE: Rabbit","brand":"CST","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46799490220201,"sku":"4167S","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/iright.com\/products\/cst-4167s","provider":"Iright","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
