The gene C17orf97, also referred to as Liat1 (ligand of Ate1), encodes a protein that interacts with arginyltransferase Ate1, a component of N-end rule pathway. Liat proteins are characterized by the presence of tandem repeats of a 10-residue sequence, whose quantity varies among different primates. Human gene contains 17 of such repeats. In primates, the gene is found to be subtelomeric, a location that is associated with evolutionary instability. The encoded protein is largely uncharacterized and may be associated with evolution of primates.
Synonyms: Anti-Uncharacterized protein C17orf97

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.
