The gene TPRN (taperin) is mapped to human chromosome 9q34. In mouse, TPRN is expressed in the inner ear, the organ of Corti and is present within the supporting cells and inner ear hair cell stereocilia. TPRN is also referred to as C9orf75 (chromosome 9 open reading frame 75).
Synonyms: Anti-C9orf75; Anti-Uncharacterized protein C9orf75
Storage: -20C
Application: Anti-C9orf75 antibody produced in rabbit, a Prestige Antibody, is developed and validated by the Human Protein Atlas (HPA) project (www.proteinatlas.org). Each antibody is tested by immunohistochemistry against hundreds of normal and disease tissues. These images can be viewed on the Human Protein Atlas (HPA) site by clicking on the Image Gallery link. The antibodies are also tested using immunofluorescence and western blotting. To view these protocols and other useful information about Prestige Antibodies and the HPA, visit sigma.com/prestige.
Biochem Physiol Actions: Mutations in TPRN (taperin) are associated with hearing loss. It might be involved in actin dynamics.
