This is a synthetic peptide designed for use in combination with anti-MPP7 antibody (Catalog #: ARP53247_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.
MPP7 acts as an important adapter that promotes epithelial cell polarity and tight junction formation via its interaction with DLG1. MPP7 is involved in the assembly of protein complexes at sites of cell-cell contact.Membrane-associated guanylate kinases (MAGUKs) are important adaptor proteins involved in the assembly of protein complexes at sites of cell-cell contact. They are found in synapses, adherens junctions, and tight junctions. All MAGUKs contain at least 1 PDZ domain, an SH3 domain, and a GUK domain, and many contain 1 or 2 L27 domains, which are involved in multimerization of MAGUKs. MPP7 belongs to the p55 stardust subfamily of MAGUKs, which is named for a Drosophila gene required for establishment of cell polarity in the developing fly embryo (Bohl et al., 2007 [PubMed 17237226]).[supplied by OMIM].
