Anti-VAC14 (aa 711-760) polyclonal antibody (CABT-BL5957) This product is for research use only and is not intended for diagnostic use.

PRODUCT INFORMATION

Product Overview Rabbit polyclonal antibody to Human VAC14.

Antigen Description The content of phosphatidylinositol 3, 5-bisphosphate (PtdInsP2) in endosomal membranes changes dynamically with fission and fusion events that generate or absorb intracellular transport vesicles. VAC14 is a component of a trimolecular complex that tightly regulates the level of PtdInsP2. Other components of this complex are the PtdInsP2-synthesizing enzyme PIKFYVE (MIM 609414) and the PtdInsP2 phosphatase (MIM 609390). VAC14 functions as an activator of PIKFYVE (Sbrissa et al., 2007

Introduction The content of phosphatidylinositol 3,5-bisphosphate (PtdIns(3,5)P2) in endosomal membranes changes dynamically with fission and fusion events that generate or absorb intracellular transport vesicles. VAC14 is a component of a trimolecular complex that tightly regulates the level of PtdIns(3,5)P2. Other components of this complex are the PtdIns(3,5)P2-synthesizing enzyme PIKFYVE (MIM 609414) and the PtdIns(3,5)P2 phosphatase FIG4 (MIM 609390). VAC14 functions as an activator of PIKFYVE (Sbrissa et al., 2007 [PubMed 17556371]).[supplied by OMIM, Feb 2010]
