Kelch-like protein 6 (KLHL6) is a member of BTB (broad-complex, tramtrack and bric à brac)-kelch protein family. Gene coding for the protein is mapped to human chromosome 3q27. The encoded protein expression is confined to lymphoid tissue. KLHL6 exhibits high activity within the germinal center (GC) B cells. The protein structure consists of a BTB domain at N- terminal and six kelch repeats at the C terminal. KLHL6 protein is primarily expressed in human tonsil B lymphocytes.
Synonyms: Anti-Kelch-like protein 6
Storage: -20C
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: Kelch-like protein 6 (KLHL6) plays a vital role in B-cell receptor (BCR) cell signaling and differentiation pathway of germinal center with in B-cell. Aberration in the expression of protein leads to chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL).
