MAGI3 antibody [SLP-32]MAGI3 (membrane-associated guanylate cyclase of inverted orientation-3) is a member of the family of membrane-associated guanylate kinases (MAGUKs) that comprise peripheral membrane proteins involved in the formation of specialized cell-cell junctions. MAGI3, as well as other proteins in this family are characterized by three types of protein-protein interaction modules: five PDZ domains, an N-terminal guanylate kinase (GK) domain, and a WW domain. The WW domain, named for two conserved tryptophan residues and first identified as two repeats in mouse YAP65, mediates protein-protein interactions through binding to short proline-rich sequences). MAGI3 and PTEN/MMAC together modulate the kinase activity of AKT/protein kinase B (PKB). MAGI3 positions PTEN/MMAC phosphatase to specific subcellular locations that are involved in the regulation of cell proliferation and survival. |
