Related Product Information for anti-ASC/TMS1 antibody
ASC [apoptosis-associated speck-like protein containing a CARD (caspase-recruitment domain)] is a bimodel protein containing a pyrin/paad domain (PYD/PAAD) and a caspase recruitment domain (CARD) ASC is also known as TMS1 (target of methylation-induced silencing). In general proteins, like ASC/TMS1, containing PYD/PAAD and CARD domains play key roles in regulating apoptosis and inflammation signaling pathways. Mutations in a number of PYD/PAAD- and CARD-containing proteins have been linked to inflammatory diseases and cancer. There is evidence that ASC/TMS1 has roles in both apoptosis and inflammation signaling pathways.With respect to inflammation, ASC/TMS1 interacts with the CARD of procaspase-1 and induces aggregation of a protein complex called the inflammasome, thereby regulating caspase-1 activation and secretion of IL-1b. Additionally, ASC/TMS1 has been found to be subjected to methylation-mediated silencing in a significant proportion of human breast tumors and other cancers, including melanomas, glioblastomas, non-small lung cancers, gastric and colorectal cancers. The loss of ASC/TMS1 expression in breast tumors and other cancers through methylation-mediated (epigenetic) silencing suggests that ASC/TMS1 has a role in tumorigenesis. In general, it is thought that methylation-mediated gene silencing contributes to tumorigenesis by inactivating genes involved in tumor suppression, and by conferring resistance to cell death signals by silencing genes that promote apoptosis. Thus methylation-mediated silencing of ASC/TMS1 may confer a survival advantage to tumor cells by enabling them to escape apoptosis. However, the precise role of ASC/TMS1 in the pathogenesis of cancer remains to be fully elucidated.

NCBI Description

This gene encodes an adaptor protein that is composed of two protein-protein interaction domains: a N-terminal PYRIN-PAAD-DAPIN domain (PYD) and a C-terminal caspase-recruitment domain (CARD). The PYD and CARD domains are members of the six-helix bundle death domain-fold superfamily that mediates assembly of large signaling complexes in the inflammatory and apoptotic signaling pathways via the activation of caspase. In normal cells, this protein is localized to the cytoplasm; however, in cells undergoing apoptosis, it forms ball-like aggregates near the nuclear periphery. Two transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

Uniprot Description

PYCARD: Promotes caspase-mediated apoptosis. This proapoptotic activity is mediated predominantly through the activation of caspase-9. May be a component of the inflammasome, a protein complex which also includes NALP2, CARD8 and CASP1 and whose function would be the activation of proinflammatory caspases. Forms complexes with other DAPIN domain-containing proteins. Interacts with CIAS1/PYPAF1 and PYDC1. Widely expressed at low levels. Detected in peripheral blood leukocytes, lung, small intestine, spleen, thymus, colon and at lower levels in placenta, liver and kidney. Very low expression in skeletal muscle, heart and brain. Detected in the leukemia cell lines HL-60 and U-937, but not in Jurkat T- cell lymphoma and Daudi Burkitt's lymphoma. Detected in the melanoma cell line WM35, but not in WM793. Not detected in HeLa cervical carcinoma cells and MOLT-4 lymphocytic leukemia cells. 3 isoforms of the human protein are produced by alternative splicing.

Product Notes

The ASC/TMS1 pycard (Catalog #AAA668514) is an Antibody produced from Rabbit and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The Polyclonal Antibody to ASC/TMS1 reacts with Human and may cross-react with other species as described in the data sheet. AAA Biotech's ASC/TMS1 can be used in a range of immunoassay formats including, but not limited to, Western Blot (WB). WB: 1: 1000-1: 5000. Researchers should empirically determine the suitability of the ASC/TMS1 pycard 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. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "ASC/TMS1, 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.
