General description: The gene KIF3A (kinesin family member 3A) is mapped to human chromosome 5q31.1. The gene encodes a subunit of heterotrimeric kinesin-2, which is a canonical plus-oriented anterograde IFT (intraflagellar transport) motor.
Application: Anti-KIF3A antibody produced in rabbit has been used in immunohistochemistry and immunofluorescence.
Biochem/physiol Actions: The gene KIF3A (kinesin family member 3A) encodes a motor subunit of kinesin-2, a protein that functions in the formation and mechanism of cilia. The chromosomal region to which the gene is mapped is linked to immune diseases, such as asthma.
Immunogen: synthetic peptide corresponding to the C-terminus of mouse KIF3A (amino acids 682-701) conjugated to KLH.
Physical form: Solution in 0.01 M phosphate buffered saline, pH 7.4, containing 15 mM sodium azide.
