Western Blot (WB)
(Western Blot analysis of SUFU expression in transfected 293T cell line by SUFU polyclonal antibody. Lane 1: SUFU transfected lysate (53.9kD). Lane 2: Non-transfected lysate.)
Testing Data
(Proximity Ligation Analysis (PLA) of protein-protein interactions between SUFU and GLI1 HeLa cells were stained with SUFU rabbit purified polyclonal 1:1200 and GLI1 mouse monoclonal antibody 1:50. Signals were detected by 30 Detection Kit 613 (red), and nuclei were counterstained with DAPI (blue). Each red dot represents the detection of protein-protein interaction complex.)
NCBI and Uniprot Product Information
NCBI Description
The Hedgehog signaling pathway plays an important role in early human development. The pathway is a signaling cascade that plays a role in pattern formation and cellular proliferation during development. This gene encodes a negative regulator of the hedgehog signaling pathway. Defects in this gene are a cause of medulloblastoma. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants.[provided by RefSeq, May 2010]
Uniprot Description
SUFU: a transcriptional regulator which negatively regulates the hedgehog signaling pathway. Down-regulates GLI1-mediated transactivation of target genes. Part of a corepressor complex that acts on DNA-bound GLI1. Modulates nuclear-cytoplasmic shuttling of Gli-1. May also act by linking GLI1 to BTRC and thereby targeting GLI1 to degradation by the proteasome. Sequesters GLI1, GLI2 and GLI3 in the cytoplasm, this effect is overcome by binding of FUSED to both SUFU and a GLI protein. Mutations in SUFU predispose to medulloblastoma. Part of a DNA-bound corepressor complex containing SAP18, GLI1 and SIN3. Part of a complex containing CTNNB1. Binds BTRC, GLI2, GLI3, SAP18 and STK36. Binds both free and DNA-bound GLI1. Defects in SUFU are a cause of medulloblastoma (MDB). MDB is a malignant, invasive embryonal tumor of the cerebellum with a preferential manifestation in children. Three alternatively spliced isoforms have been described.
