epitope mapping at the N-terminus of IFT88 of human origin
Modification Notes
The tetratricopeptide repeat (TPR) motif is a degenerate, 34 amino acid sequence found in many proteins and acts to mediate protein-protein interactions in various pathways. IFT88 (Intraflagellar transport protein 88), also known as TG737 or TTC10 (TPR repeat protein 10), is an 833 amino acid protein that contains 12 TPR repeats and belongs to the TPR family. Expressed in lung, heart, liver, brain, pancreas, kidney and skeletal muscle, IFT88 is thought to interact with other intraflagellar transport proteins and may play a role in the assembly and maintenance of the vertebrate outer segment. Additionally, IFT88 is thought to function as a centrosomal protein that may regulate the G1 to S phase cell cycle transition in non-ciliated cells. Defects in the gene encoding IFT88 may be associated with the pathogenesis of polycystic kidney disease, a genetic disorder that is characterized by the presence of cysts within the kidneys. IFT88 expression is downregulated in hepatocellular carcinomas, suggesting a role for IFT88 in tumor suppression. Multiple isoforms of IFT88 exist due to alternative splicing events.
