NCBI Description

Present mainly in the mitochondrial compartment of peripheral tissues, the protein encoded by this gene interacts with some benzodiazepines and has different affinities than its endogenous counterpart. The protein is a key factor in the flow of cholesterol into mitochondria to permit the initiation of steroid hormone synthesis. Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been reported; one of the variants lacks an internal exon and is considered non-coding, and the other variants encode the same protein. [provided by RefSeq, Feb 2012]

Uniprot Description

TSPO: Responsible for the manifestation of peripheral-type benzodiazepine recognition sites and is most likely to comprise binding domains for benzodiazepines and isoquinoline carboxamides. May play a role in the transport of porphyrins and heme. Plays a role in the transport of cholesterol across mitochondrial membranes in steroidogenic cells. Belongs to the TspO/BZRP family. Interacts with BZRAP1. May interact with STAR. Interacts with MOST-1. 2 isoforms of the human protein are produced by alternative splicing.

Protein type: Apoptosis; Membrane protein, integral; Membrane protein, multi-pass; Mitochondrial; Receptor, misc.

Chromosomal Location of Human Ortholog: 22q13.2

Cellular Component: integral component of membrane; mitochondrial outer membrane

Molecular Function: androgen binding; benzodiazepine receptor activity; cholesterol binding; cholesterol transporter activity; protein binding

Biological Process: adrenal gland development; aging; anion transport; apoptosis; axon regeneration in the peripheral nervous system; behavioral response to pain; C21-steroid hormone biosynthetic process; cell proliferation; chloride transport; cholesterol transport; glial cell migration; heme biosynthetic process; negative regulation of nitric oxide biosynthetic process; negative regulation of protein ubiquitination; negative regulation of tumor necrosis factor production; positive regulation of apoptosis; positive regulation of calcium ion transport; positive regulation of mitochondrial depolarization; protein targeting to mitochondrion; regulation of cholesterol transport; regulation of steroid biosynthetic process; response to drug; response to manganese ion; response to progesterone; response to testosterone stimulus; response to vitamin B1; signal transduction; steroid metabolic process

Product Notes

The TSPO tspo (Catalog #AAA2026404) is an Antibody produced from Rabbit and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The Polyclonal Antibody to Translocator Protein (TSPO) reacts with Human and may cross-react with other species as described in the data sheet. AAA Biotech's Translocator Protein can be used in a range of immunoassay formats including, but not limited to, Western Blot (WB), Immunocytochemistry (ICC), Immunohistochemistry (IHC) Formalin/Paraffin, ELISA (EIA). Western blotting: 0.5-2ug/mL Immunohistochemistry: 5-20ug/mL Immunocytochemistry: 5-20ug/mL Optimal working dilutions must be determined by end user. Researchers should empirically determine the suitability of the TSPO tspo 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 "Translocator Protein, 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.
