epitope corresponding to amino acids 177-281 mapping within an internal region of FPGS of human origin
Modification Notes
FPGS (folylpolyglutamate synthase) is a 587 amino acid protein that localizes to both the nucleus and the cytoplasm in an isoform-dependent manner and is involved in tetrahydrofolylpolyglutamate biosynthesis. Existing as a monomer, FPGS catalyzes the ATP-dependent conversion of folates to polyglutamate derivatives, thus allowing tissues to have a higher concentration of folate than the surrounding plasma. The gene encoding FPGS maps to human chromosome 9, which houses over 900 genes and comprises nearly 4% of the human genome. Hereditary hemorrhagic telangiectasia, which is characterized by harmful vascular defects, and Familial dysautonomia, are both associated with chromosome 9. Notably, chromosome 9 encompasses the largest interferon family gene cluster.
