Anti-ZAP75

The Uses of Anti-ZAP75

All Prestige Antibodies Powered by Atlas Antibodies are developed and validated by the Human Protein Atlas (HPA) project (www.proteinatlas.org)and as a result, are supported by the most extensive characterization in the industry.

The Human Protein Atlas project can be subdivided into three efforts: Human Tissue Atlas, Cancer Atlas, and Human Cell Atlas. The antibodies that have been generated in support of the Tissue and Cancer Atlas projects have been tested by immunohistochemistry against hundreds of normal and disease tissues and through the recent efforts of the Human Cell Atlas project, many have been characterized by immunofluorescence to map the human proteome not only at the tissue level but now at the subcellular level. These images and the collection of this vast data set can be viewed on the Human Protein Atlas (HPA) site by clicking on the Image Gallery link.

General Description

GP-2 is a membrane glycoprotein that is found in the secretory granules of the pancreatic exocrine components. This glycoprotein may modulate membrane transport in the acinar cells of the pancreas. GP-2 acts as an autoantigen in Crohn′s disease, thereby contributing to the pathogenesis of autoinflammatory responses associated with inflammatory bowel diseases . Anti-GP2 antibody is specific for GP-2 in humans.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Pancreatic secretory granule membrane major glycoprotein GP2 is a protein encoded by the GP2 gene in humans. It is found on the apical surface of microfold (M) intestinal cell and is expressed on cells vital to mucosal immune responses. It acts as an immunomodulator and is up-regulated on activated human T cells upon expression.
