Related Product Information for anti-PRICKLE1 antibody

PRICKLE1, also known as RILP or EPM1B, is a Disheveled-associated protein that serves as a nuclear translocation receptor for REST/NRSF and REST4 (1, 2). It contains three N-terminal LIM domains and three C-terminal nuclear localization signals. It localizes to the cytoplasm, as well as to the nuclear membrane and expressed at higher levels in placenta. PRICKLE1 is a negative regulator of the Wnt / beta-catenin signaling pathway and is a putative tumor suppressor in human HCCs. Defects in the gene encoding PRICKLE1 are associated with autosomal recessive progressive myoclonic epilepsy.

NCBI Description

This gene encodes a nuclear receptor that may be a negative regulator of the Wnt/beta-catenin signaling pathway. The encoded protein localizes to the nuclear membrane and has been implicated in the nuclear trafficking of the transcription repressors REST/NRSF and REST4. Mutations in this gene have been linked to progressive myoclonus epilepsy. Alternate splicing results in multiple transcript variants. A pseudogene of this gene is found on chromosome 3.

Uniprot Description

PRICKLE1: Involved in the planar cell polarity pathway that controls convergent extension during gastrulation and neural tube closure. Convergent extension is a complex morphogenetic process during which cells elongate, move mediolaterally, and intercalate between neighboring cells, leading to convergence toward the mediolateral axis and extension along the anteroposterior axis. Necessary for nuclear localization of REST. May serve as nuclear receptor. Defects in PRICKLE1 are the cause of progressive myoclonic epilepsy type 1B (EPM1B). EPM1B is an autosomal recessive disorder characterized by myoclonus that progresses in severity over time, tonic-clonic seizures and ataxia. Defects in PRICKLE1 may be a cause of susceptibility to neural tube defects (NTD). Congenital malformations of the central nervous system and adjacent structures related to defective neural tube closure during the first trimester of pregnancy. Failure of neural tube closure can occur at any level of the embryonic axis. Common NTD forms include anencephaly, myelomeningocele and spina bifida, which result from the failure of fusion in the cranial and spinal region of the neural tube. NTDs have a multifactorial etiology encompassing both genetic and environmental components. Belongs to the prickle / espinas / testin family.
