Background

Protein KIBRA also known as kidney and brain expressed protein (KIBRA) or WW domain-containing protein 1 (WWC1) is a protein that in humansl is encoded by the WWC1 gene. The protein encoded by this gene is a cytoplasmic phosphoprotein that interacts with PRKC-zeta and dynein light chain-1. Alleles of this gene have been found that enhance memory in some individuals. Three transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene.

Immunogen

E.coli-derived human KIBRA/WWC1 recombinant protein (Position: D990-Q1080) .

Clonality

Polyclonal

Tissue Specificity

Expressed at low levels in the more differentiated suprabasal regions of the small intestine, and at higher levels in the colon, mainly in the upper region and in scattered cells throughout the remaining epithelium. Also expressed in epithelial cells of bladder, ileum and stomach and at lower levels in pancreas and earskin. The phosphorylated form is nearly exclusively expressed in goblet cells of the small intestine and in the lumen-proximal cells of the colon (at protein level) . Also expressed in jejunum and duodenum.

Function

Catalytic histone acetyltransferase subunit of the RNA polymerase II elongator complex, which is a component of the RNA polymerase II (Pol II) holoenzyme and is involved in transcriptional elongation. Elongator may play a role in chromatin remodeling and is involved in acetylation of histones H3 and probably H4. Involved in acetylation of alpha-tubulin (PubMed:19185337) . May also have a methyltransferase activity. Involved in cell migration. Involved in neurogenesis. Regulates the migration and branching of projection neurons in the developing cerebral cortex, through a process depending on alpha-tubulin acetylation.
