Human C4.4A / LYPD3 Protein (His Tag)

C4.4A

Catalog Number P11836-H08H
Organism Species Human
Host Human Cells
Synonyms C4.4A
Molecular Weight The recombinant human LYPD3 consists of 267 amino acids and predictes a molecular mass of 28.3 kDa. In SDS-PAGE under reducing conditions, the apparent molecular mass of rhLYPD3 is approximately 45-60 kDa due to glycosylation.
predicted N Leu 31
SDS-PAGE
Purity > 95 % as determined by SDS-PAGE
Protein Construction A DNA sequence encoding the human LYPD3 (NP_055215.2) C-terminal segment (Met 1-His 286) was expressed, with a polyhistidine tag at the C-terminus.

Background Ly6 / PLAUR domain-containing protein 3, also known as GPI-anchored metastasis-associated protein C4.4A homolog, Matrigel-induced gene C4 protein, MIG-C4 and LYPD3, is a cell membrane protein which contains two UPAR/Ly6 domains. Human LYPD3 contains two UPAR/Ly6 domains. LYPD3 is expressed in placenta, skin and urothelium. It is found in suprabasal keratinocytes of chronic wounds. Weak expression of LYPD3 is found in esophagus and peripheral blood mononuclear cells. It is found in the majority of primary and metastatic transitional cell carcinomas (TCCs) and as well in breast cancer tissues, but not in adjacent normal tissues. High expression of LYPD3 is found in the tumor component of some noninvasive superficial lesions and in invasive and metastatic urothelial cancers. LYPD3 is up-regulated in migrating keratinocytes during epithelisation of incisional skin wounds. LYPD3 supports cell migration. It may be involved in urothelial cell-matrix interactions. It may also be involved in tumor progression
