Anti-EEA1

0.5mg/ml if reconstituted with 0.2ml sterile DI water. The gene EEA1 encodes for the 1400 amino acid protein, Early Endosome Antigen 1. It localizes exclusively to early endosomes and has an important role in endosomal trafficking. EEA1 binds directly to the phospholipid phosphatidylinositol 3-phosphate through its C-terminal FYVE domain and forms ahomodimer through a coiled coil. Furthermore, EEA1 acts as a tethering molecule that couples vesicle docking with SNAREs such as N-ethylmaleimide sensitive fusion protein, bringing the endosomes physically closer and ultimately resulting in the fusion and delivery of endosomal cargo. Protein function: Binds phospholipid vesicles containing phosphatidylinositol 3-phosphate and participates in endosomal trafficking. [The UniProt Consortium]
