Cdc42 effector protein 1 is a protein encoded by the CDC42EP1 gene in humans. It is referred to as CEP1, BORG5 and MSE55. Cdc42 is a member of the Rho GTPase family that regulates multiple cellular activities that includes actin polymerization, kinase-signaling activation and cell polarization.
Synonyms: Anti-Binder of ρ-GTPases 5 antibody produced in rabbit; Anti-Cdc42 effector protein 1 antibody produced in rabbit; Anti-Serum protein MSE55 antibody produced in rabbit

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: CDC42EP1 (CDC42 effector protein 1) interacts with CDC42, and causes the formation of long extensions in fibroblasts. It also causes the reorganization of actin cytoskeleton at the plasma membrane.
