Application: 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.

Biochem Physiol Actions: BAIAP2L1 (BAI1-associated protein 2-like 1) is a 53kDa scaffold protein of a newly discovered family. It is involved in the signal transducing and control of cytoskeleton assembly as well as membrane protrusion at the plasma membrane. Tyrosine phosphorylated BAIAP2L1 helps to deform the plasma membrane structure, which is an essential step in cell motility. BAIAP2L1 also has clinical association in the pathogenesis of malignant tumors, including hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). It has been studied that during proliferation of HCC, BAIAP2L1 interacts with epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) to phosphorylate extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK) via EGFR-ERK signalling pathway.
