PALS / MPP5 Immunizing Peptide
NCBI and Uniprot Product Information
NCBI Description
This gene encodes a member of the p55-like subfamily of the membrane-associated guanylate kinase (MAGUK) gene superfamily. The encoded protein participates in the polarization of differentiating cells, has been shown to regulate myelinating Schwann cells (PMID: 20237282), and is one of the components of the Crumbs complex in the retina. Mice which express lower levels of the orthologous protein have retinal degeneration and impaired vision (PMID: 22114289). Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Feb 2012]
Uniprot Description
MPP5: May play a role in tight junctions biogenesis and in the establishment of cell polarity in epithelial cells. May modulate SC6A1/GAT1-mediated GABA uptake by stabilizing the transporter. Required for localization of EZR to the apical membrane of parietal cells and may play a role in the dynamic remodeling of the apical cytoskeleton. Belongs to the MAGUK family. 2 isoforms of the human protein are produced by alternative splicing.
Protein type: Adaptor/scaffold
Chromosomal Location of Human Ortholog: 14q23.3
Cellular Component: cytoplasm; endomembrane system; lateral loop; nucleoplasm; plasma membrane; protein complex; tight junction
Molecular Function: protein binding; protein domain specific binding
Biological Process: morphogenesis of an epithelial sheet; myelin formation; myelin maintenance in the peripheral nervous system

Product Notes
The MPP5 mpp5 (Catalog #AAA426216) is a Blocking Peptide and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The PALS / MPP5 Immunizing Peptide reacts with Human, Dog, Pig and may cross-react with other species as described in the data sheet. The amino acid sequence is listed below: NKASPPFPLI SNAQ-C. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "PALS / MPP5, Blocking Peptide" 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.Precautions
