特异性
This REST antibody is generated from rabbits immunized with a KLH conjugated synthetic peptide between 542-570 amino acids from the Central region of human REST.
背景介绍
Transcriptional repressor which binds neuron-restrictive silencer element (NRSE) and represses neuronal gene transcription in non-neuronal cells. Restricts the expression of neuronal genes by associating with two distinct corepressors, mSin3 and CoREST, which in turn recruit histone deacetylase to the promoters of REST-regulated genes. Mediates repression by recruiting the BHC complex at RE1/NRSE sites which acts by deacetylating and demethylating specific sites on histones, thereby acting as a chromatin modifier.
组织表达
Expressed in neurons of the prefrontal cortex, in hippocampal pyramidal neurons, dentate gyrus granule neurons and cerebellar Purkinje and granule neurons (at protein level) (PubMed:24670762). Expressed in dopaminergic neurons of the substantia nigra (at protein level) (PubMed:30684677). Expressed in neural progenitor cells (at protein level) (PubMed:21258371). In patients suffering from Alzheimer disease, frontotemporal dementia or dementia with Lewy bodies, decreased nuclear levels have been observed in neurons of the prefrontal cortex and the hippocampus, but not in neurons of the dentate gyrus and cerebellum (at protein level) (PubMed:24670762). In patients with Parkinson disease or dementia with Lewy bodies, decreased nuclear levels have been observed in dopaminergic neurons and in cortical neurons and localization to Lewy bodies and pale bodies was detected (at protein level) (PubMed:30684677). Expressed at higher levels in weakly invasive breast cancer cell lines and at lower levels in highly invasive breast cancer lines (at protein level) (PubMed:26053433). Ubiquitous (PubMed:8568247). Expressed at higher levels in the tissues of the lymphocytic compartment, including spleen, thymus, peripheral blood lymphocytes and ovary (PubMed:8568247).
细胞定位
Nucleus. Cytoplasm. Note=Colocalizes with ZFP90 in the nucleus (By similarity). In response to hypoxia, there is a more pronounced increase in levels in the nucleus as compared to the cytoplasm (PubMed:27531581). In aging neurons, increased levels in the nucleus as compared to the cytoplasm (PubMed:24670762, PubMed:30684677). {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q8VIG1, ECO:0000269|PubMed:24670762, ECO:0000269|PubMed:27531581, ECO:0000269|PubMed:30684677} [Isoform 3]: Nucleus
