NCBI and Uniprot Product Information
NCBI Description
The protein encoded by this gene is a highly hydrophobic integral membrane protein belonging to the MAL family of proteolipids. The protein has been localized to the endoplasmic reticulum of T-cells and is a candidate linker protein in T-cell signal transduction. In addition, this proteolipid is localized in compact myelin of cells in the nervous system and has been implicated in myelin biogenesis and/or function. The protein plays a role in the formation, stabilization and maintenance of glycosphingolipid-enriched membrane microdomains. Down-regulation of this gene has been associated with a variety of human epithelial malignancies. Alternative splicing produces four transcript variants which vary from each other by the presence or absence of alternatively spliced exons 2 and 3. [provided by RefSeq, May 2012]
Uniprot Description
MAL: Could be an important component in vesicular trafficking cycling between the Golgi complex and the apical plasma membrane. Could be involved in myelin biogenesis and/or myelin function. Belongs to the MAL family. 4 isoforms of the human protein are produced by alternative splicing.

Product Notes
The MAL mal (Catalog #AAA7019773) is a Recombinant Protein produced from Cell Free Expression and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The immunogen sequence is 1-153aa; Full length protein. This is a recombinant transmembrane protein expressed in a cell-free expression system. Researchers should empirically determine the suitability of the MAL mal for an application not listed in the data sheet. Researchers commonly develop new applications and it is an integral, important part of the investigative research process. The amino acid sequence is listed below: MAPAAATGGS TLPSGFSVFT TLPDLLFIFE FIFGGLVWIL VASSLVPWPL VQGWVMFVSV FCFVATTTLI ILYIIGAHGG ETSWVTLDAA YHCTAALFYL SASVLEALAT ITMQDGFTYR HYHENIAAVV FSYIATLLYV VHAVFSLIRW KSS. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "Myelin and lymphocyte protein (MAL), Recombinant Protein" 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
