Charged Multivesicular Body Protein 6 Protein

CHMP6 antibody

Probable core component of the endosomal sorting required for transport complex III(ESCRT-III) which is involved in multivesicular bodies(MVBs) formation and sorting of endosomal cargo proteins into MVBs. MVBs contain intraluminal vesicles(ILVs) that are generated by invagination and scission from the limiting membrane of the endosome and mostly are delivered to lysosomes enabling degradation of membrane proteins, such as stimulated growth factor receptors, lysosomal enzymes and lipids. The MVB pathway appears to require the sequential function of ESCRT-O,-I,-II and-III complexes. ESCRT-III proteins mostly dissociate from the invaginating membrane before the ILV is released. The ESCRT machinery also functions in topologically equivalent membrane fission events, such as the terminal stages of cytokinesis and the budding of enveloped viruses(HIV-1 and other lentiviruses). ESCRT-III proteins are believed to mediate the necessary vesicle extrusion and/or membrane fission activities, possibly in conjunction with the AAA ATPase VPS4. In the ESCRT-III complex, it probably serves as an acceptor for the ESCRT-II complex on endosomal membranes.

Recombinant Human CHMP6

Charged Multivesicular Body Protein 6 (CHMP6) Antibody

CHMP6 Antibody is a Rabbit Polyclonal antibody against CHMP6. This gene encodes a member of the chromatin-modifying protein/charged multivesicular body protein family. Proteins in this family are part of the ESCRT-III (endosomal sorting complex required for transport III) which degrades surface receptors, and in biosynthesis of endosomes.
