PTRF Polymerase I and transcript release factor Cavin-1
Molecular Weight(MW)
43476 Da
Function
Plays an important role in caveolae formation and organization. Required for the sequestration of mobile caveolin into immobile caveolae. Termination of transcription by RNA polymerase I involves pausing of transcription by TTF1, and the dissociation of the transcription complex, releasing pre-rRNA and RNA polymerase I from the template. PTRF is required for dissociation of the ternary transcription complex
Tissue Specificity
This PTRF antibody is generated from rabbits immunized with a KLH conjugated synthetic peptide between 361~390 amino acids from the C-terminal region of human PTRF.
Cellular Localization
Membrane, caveola. Cell membrane. Microsome. Endoplasmic reticulum. Cytoplasm, cytosol. Mitochondrion. Nucleus Note=Found at the surface of the caveolae. Also found in the plasma membrane, microsomal and cytosolic fractions and at a low level in the mitochondrial and nuclear fractions. Translocates to the cytoplasm from the caveolae upon insulin stimulation. CAV1 is necessary to recruit it to the cell membrane (By similarity). Co- localizes with CAV1 in lipid rafts in adipocytes
Western blot analysis of anti-PTRF Antibody (N-term) Pab in A375 cell line lysates (35ug/lane). PTRF(arrow) was detected using the purified Pab.
