Background

ARC, officially called activity-regulated cytoskeleton-associated protein, is a plasticity protein first characterized in 1995. It is a member of the immediate-early gene (IEG) family. The ARC gene is mapped to chromosome 8q24. It has got 460 amino acid protein which shares significant similarity with rat Arc. The Arc is highly expressed in heart, brain, lung, skeletal muscle, pancreas, prostate and testis and has got weak expression in small intestine, colon, and peripheral blood leukocytes. Arc is widely considered to be an important protein in neurobiology and also a significant tool for systems neuroscience.

Cross Reactivity

No cross-reactivity with other proteins.

Immunogen

A synthetic peptide corresponding to a sequence at the C-terminus of human Arc, different from the related mouse sequence by two amino acids, and from the related rat sequence by three amino acids.

Clonality

Polyclonal

Tissue Specificity

Expressed in heart, brain, liver and prostate, but not in kidney, lung, adrenal, aorta and pituitary. Within the prostate, expressed in the apex, base, periurethral and lateral lobe. Isoform 4 is the most abundant isoform expressed in the prostate with high levels also detected in liver and heart. .

Function

Required for consolidation of synaptic plasticity as well as formation of long-term memory. Regulates endocytosis of AMPA receptors in response to synaptic activity. Required for homeostatic synaptic scaling of AMPA receptors (By similarity). Plays a role in the regulation of cell morphology and cytoskeletal organization. Required in the stress fiber dynamics and cell migration. .
