epitope corresponding to amino acids 1-45 representing full length Tβ-15a/b of human origin
Modification Notes
∫-thymosins are a family of small, water-soluble peptides. They are molecules with multiple and diverse intracellular and extracellular functions. ∫-thymosins are known for binding G-Actin and disturbing the assembly of F-Actin. T∫-15a (TMSB15A), also designated neuroblastoma thymosin ∫ (NB T∫), or thymosin-like protein 8, is significantly similar to its family members thmyosin-∫15b (T∫-15b), thmyosin-∫4 (T∫-4) and thymosin-∫10 (T∫-10). T∫-15a is a 44 amino acid protein expressed in neuroblastomas that localizes to the cytoplasm. It interacts with G-Actin and is involved in tissue invasion, cell growth and cell motility. Interference of T∫-15a expression has been shown to decrease cell invasion. T∫-15a may play a role in tumor development and progression. A newly described isoform of thmyosin-∫15, T∫-15b is transcribed from a different gene (TMSB15B) and encodes a protein identical to T∫-15a. The two gene isoforms are subject to different transcriptional regulation and have distinct expression.
