Anti-PEX5 [6.0E9] Monoclonal Antibody -Knockout Validated

[KO] PEX5 Monoclonal Antibody from Assay Genie is a high quality antibody for research use only. Protein Function: Receptor that mediates peroxisomal import of proteins containing a C-terminal PTS1-type tripeptide peroxisomal targeting signal (SKL-type) (PubMed:11101887, PubMed:11336669, PubMed:12456682, PubMed:16314507, PubMed:17157249, PubMed:17428317, PubMed:21976670, PubMed:26344566, PubMed:7706321, PubMed:7719337, PubMed:7790377). Binds to cargo proteins containing a PTS1 peroxisomal targeting signal in the cytosol, and translocates them into the peroxisome matrix by passing through the PEX13-PEX14 docking complex along with cargo proteins (PubMed:12456682, PubMed:17157249, PubMed:21976670, PubMed:26344566). PEX5 receptor is then retrotranslocated into the cytosol, leading to release of bound cargo in the peroxisome matrix, and reset for a subsequent peroxisome import cycle (PubMed:11336669, PubMed:24662292) , In addition to promoting peroxisomal translocation of proteins containing a PTS1 peroxisomal targeting signal, mediates peroxisomal import of proteins containing a C-terminal PTS2-type peroxisomal targeting signal via its interaction with PEX7 (PubMed:11336669, PubMed:11546814, PubMed:25538232, PubMed:33389129, PubMed:9668159). Interaction with PEX7 only takes place when PEX7 is associated with cargo proteins containing a PTS2 peroxisomal targeting signal (PubMed:25538232). PEX7 along with PTS2-containing cargo proteins are then translocated through the PEX13-PEX14 docking complex together with PEX5 (PubMed:25538232) , Does not mediate translocation of peroxisomal import of proteins containing a C-terminal PTS2-type peroxisomal targeting signal [The Uniprot Consortium]
