Description
Product Characteristics:
TANC (tetratricopeptide repeat, ankyrin repeat and coiled-coil domain-containing protein), also known as TANC1, is a 1,861 amino acid postsynaptic cell membrane protein that contains eleven ANK repeats, three TPR repeats and belongs to the TANC family. Considered a scaffolding component in the postsynaptic density, TANC interacts with TNIK, SAPAP1, Alpha-internexin, CaMKII, NMDA 2 and GluR-1. It is also thought that TANC interacts directly with SAP 97, PSD-95 and Homer. Upon stimulation by Rap 2, MINK1 and TNIK may phosphorylate TANC. The TANC gene encodes two alternatively spliced isoforms, contains approximately 264,025 bases and maps to human chromosome 2q24.2. Making up approximately 8 % of the human genome, chromosome 2 consists of 237 million bases and encodes over 1,400 genes. A number of genetic diseases are linked to genes on chromosome 2 including Harlequin icthyosis, sitosterolemia and Alstr syndrome.
