Background

Mitochondrial tumor suppressor 1 (MTSG1) or Microtubule-Associated Scaffold Protein 1 (MTUS1) is a candidate tumor suppressor protein encoded by the MTUS1 gene in humans. It is mapped to 8p22. This gene encodes a protein which contains a C-terminal domain able to interact with the angiotension II (AT2) receptor and a large coiled-coil region allowing dimerization. Multiple alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. One of the transcript variants has been shown to encode a mitochondrial protein that acts as a tumor suppressor and partcipates in AT2 signaling pathways. Other variants may encode nuclear or transmembrane proteins but it has not been determined whether they also participate in AT2 signaling pathways.

Polyclonal

Tissue Specificity

Ubiquitously expressed (at protein level) . Highly expressed in brain. Down-regulated in ovarian carcinoma, pancreas carcinoma, colon carcinoma and head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) . Isoform 1 is the major isoform in most peripheral tissues. Isoform 2 is abundant in most peripheral tissues. Isoform 3 is the major isoform in brain, female reproductive tissues, thyroid and heart. Within brain it is highly expressed in corpus callosum and pons. Isoform 6 is brain-specific, it is the major isoform in cerebellum and fetal brain.

Applications

ELISA, IF, ICC, WB

Field of Research

Cancer, Cancer Susceptibility, Epigenetics and Nuclear Signaling, Oncoproteins/Suppressors, Transcription, Tumor Suppressors

Purification

Immunogen affinity purified.

Concentration

Adding 0.2 ml of distilled water will yield a concentration of 500 μg/ml.

Form

Lyophilized

Reconstitution

Add 0.2ml of distilled water will yield a concentration of 500ug/ml.

Function

Cooperates with AGTR2 to inhibit ERK2 activation and cell proliferation. May be required for AGTR2 cell surface expression. Together with PTPN6, induces UBE2V2 expression upon angiotensin-II stimulation. Isoform 1 inhibits breast cancer cell proliferation, delays the progression of mitosis by prolonging metaphase and reduces tumor growth.
