MyBioSource.com's TYROBP Antibody is a Rabbit Polyclonal antibody. This antibody has been shown to work in applications such as: ELISA, Immunohistochemistry, and Western Blot. The TYROBP Antibody was generated using TYROBP as the antigen and it reacts with Human.
Description
Description: This gene encodes a transmembrane signaling polypeptide which contains an immunoreceptor tyrosine-based activation motif (ITAM) in its cytoplasmic domain. The encoded protein may associate with the killer-cell inhibitory receptor (KIR) family of membrane glycoproteins and may act as an activating signal transduction element. This protein may bind zeta-chain (TCR) associated protein kinase 70kDa (ZAP-70) and spleen tyrosine kinase (SYK) and play a role in signal transduction, bone modeling, brain myelination, and inflammation. Mutations within this gene have been associated with polycystic lipomembranous osteodysplasia with sclerosing leukoencephalopathy (PLOSL), also known as Nasu-Hakola disease. Its putative receptor, triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cells 2 (TREM2), also causes PLOSL. Multiple alternative transcript variants encoding distinct isoforms have been identified for this gene.
Function: Non-covalently associates with activating receptors of the CD300 family. Cross-linking of CD300-TYROBP complexes results in cellular activation. Involved for instance in neutrophil activation mediated by integrin.
Subunit Structure: Homodimer; disulfide-linked (PubMed:20890284). Interacts with SIRPB1 and TREM1 (PubMed:10799849). Interacts with CLECSF5 (PubMed:10449773). Interacts with SIGLEC14 (PubMed:17012248). Interacts with CD300LB and CD300E (PubMed:15557162, PubMed:16920917, PubMed:17928527). Interacts with CD300D (By similarity). Interacts (via ITAM domain) with SYK (via SH2 domains); activates SYK mediating neutrophils and macrophages integrin-mediated activation (By similarity). Interacts with KLRC2, KIR2DS3 and KIR2DS5 (PubMed:18624290, PubMed:20890284).
Post-translational Modifications: Tyrosine phosphorylated.
Similarity: Belongs to the TYROBP family
