Melanoma Antigen Family A, 6 (MAGEA6) (Middle Region) Peptid

This is a synthetic peptide designed for use in combination with anti-MAGEA6 antibody ( ARP46125_P050). It may block above mentioned antibody from binding to its target protein in western blot and/or immunohistochecmistry under proper experimental settings. There is no guarantee for its use in other applications. Please inquire for more details.

Background Information: MAGEA6 gene is a member of the MAGEA gene family. The members of this family encode proteins with 50 to 80 % sequence identity to each other. The promoters and first exons of the MAGEA genes show considerable variability, suggesting that the existence of this gene family enables the same function to be expressed under different transcriptional controls. The MAGEA genes are clustered at chromosomal location Xq28. They have been implicated in some hereditary disorders, such as dyskeratosis congenita.This gene is a member of the MAGEA gene family.

The MAGEA genes are clustered at chromosomal location Xq28. They have been implicated in some hereditary disorders, such as dyskeratosis congenita. Two transcript variants encoding the same protein have been identified for this gene.
