Related Product Information for anti-CLU antibody
The protein encoded by this gene appears to be involved in several basic biological events such as cell death, tumor progression, and neurodegenerative disorders. However, the function of this protein is unknown. Three transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene, and one of them is secreted and processed into a mature form.

NCBI Description

The protein encoded by this gene is a secreted chaperone that can under some stress conditions also be found in the cell cytosol. It has been suggested to be involved in several basic biological events such as cell death, tumor progression, and neurodegenerative disorders. Alternate splicing results in both coding and non-coding variants.[provided by RefSeq, May 2011]

Uniprot Description

Function: Isoform 1 functions as extracellular chaperone that prevents aggregation of nonnative proteins. Prevents stress-induced aggregation of blood plasma proteins. Inhibits formation of amyloid fibrils by APP, APOC2, B2M, CALCA, CSN3, SNCA and aggregation-prone LYZ variants (in vitro). Does not require ATP. Maintains partially unfolded proteins in a state appropriate for subsequent refolding by other chaperones, such as HSPA8/HSC70. Does not refold proteins by itself. Binding to cell surface receptors triggers internalization of the chaperone-client complex and subsequent lysosomal or proteasomal degradation. Secreted isoform 1 protects cells against apoptosis and against cytolysis by complement. Intracellular isoforms interact with ubiquitin and SCF (SKP1-CUL1-F-box protein) E3 ubiquitin-protein ligase complexes and promote the ubiquitination and subsequent proteasomal degradation of target proteins. Promotes proteasomal degradation of COMMD1 and IKBKB. Modulates NF-kappa-B transcriptional activity. Nuclear isoforms promote apoptosis. Mitochondrial isoforms suppress BAX-dependent release of cytochrome c into the cytoplasm and inhibit apoptosis. Plays a role in the regulation of cell proliferation. Ref.24 Ref.25 Ref.26 Ref.27 Ref.28 Ref.33 Ref.37 Ref.38 Ref.40 Ref.42 Ref.46 Ref.47 Ref.50 Ref.51 Ref.52

Subunit structure: Antiparallel disulfide-linked heterodimer of an alpha chain and a beta chain. Self-associates and forms higher oligomers. Interacts with a broad range of misfolded proteins, including APP, APOC2 and LYZ. Slightly acidic pH promotes interaction with misfolded proteins. Forms high-molecular weight oligomers upon interaction with misfolded proteins. Interacts with APOA1, LRP2, CLUAP1 AND PON1. Interacts with the complement complex. Interacts (via alpha chain) with XRCC6. Interacts with SYVN1, COMMD1, BTRC, CUL1 and with ubiquitin and SCF (SKP1-CUL1-F-box protein) E3 ubiquitin-protein ligase complexes. Interacts (via alpha chain) with BAX in stressed cells, where BAX undergoes a conformation change leading to association with the mitochondrial membrane. Does not interact with BAX in unstressed cells. Found in a complex with LTF, CLU, EPPIN and SEMG1. Ref.1 Ref.9 Ref.10 Ref.11 Ref.14 Ref.18 Ref.20 Ref.21 Ref.22 Ref.25 Ref.26 Ref.27 Ref.30 Ref.33 Ref.37 Ref.39 Ref.40 Ref.42 Ref.44 Ref.46 Ref.51

Subcellular location: Isoform 1: Secreted. Note: Can retrotranslocate from the secretory compartments to the cytosol upon cellular stress. Ref.1 Ref.10 Ref.11 Ref.13 Ref.22 Ref.24 Ref.27 Ref.33 Ref.37 Ref.38 Ref.40 Ref.44 Ref.47 Ref.51Nucleus. Cytoplasm. Mitochondrion membrane; Peripheral membrane protein; Cytoplasmic side. Cytoplasm › cytosol. Microsome. Endoplasmic reticulum. Cytoplasmic vesicle › secretory vesicle › chromaffin granule

By similarity. Note: Isoforms lacking the N-terminal signal sequence have been shown to be cytoplasmic and/or nuclear. Secreted isoforms can retrotranslocate from the secretory compartments to the cytosol upon cellular stress. Detected in perinuclear foci that may be aggresomes containing misfolded, ubiquitinated proteins. Detected at the mitochondrion membrane upon induction of apoptosis. Ref.1 Ref.10 Ref.11 Ref.13 Ref.22 Ref.24 Ref.27 Ref.33 Ref.37 Ref.38 Ref.40 Ref.44 Ref.47 Ref.51

Tissue specificity: Detected in blood plasma, cerebrospinal fluid, milk, seminal plasma and colon mucosa. Detected in the germinal center of colon lymphoid nodules and in colon parasympathetic ganglia of the Auerbach plexus (at protein level). Ubiquitous. Detected in brain, testis, ovary, liver and pancreas, and at lower levels in kidney, heart, spleen and lung. Ref.1 Ref.2 Ref.10 Ref.11 Ref.13 Ref.14 Ref.22 Ref.24 Ref.37 Ref.40 Ref.43

Induction: Up-regulated in response to enterovirus 71 (EV71) infection (at protein level). Up-regulated by agents that induce apoptosis, both at mRNA and protein level. Isoform 1 is up-regulated by androgen. Isoform 2 is down-regulated by androgen. Ref.34 Ref.38 Ref.41

Post-translational modification: Isoform 1 is proteolytically cleaved on its way through the secretory system, probably within the Golgi lumen. Ref.10Polyubiquitinated, leading to proteasomal degradation.Heavily N-glycosylated. About 30% of the protein mass is comprised of complex N-linked carbohydrate. Ref.10 Ref.18 Ref.23 Ref.29 Ref.37

Researchers commonly develop new applications and it is an integral, important part of the investigative research process. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "CLU, Polyclonal Antibody" to become dispersed throughout the inside of the vial, particularly around the seal of said vial, during shipment and storage. We always suggest centrifuging these vials to consolidate all of the liquid away from the lid and to the bottom of the vial prior to opening. Please be advised that certain products may require dry ice for shipping and that, if this is the case, an additional dry ice fee may also be required.
