Anti-TCHP

function:May act as a 'capping' or 'branching' protein for keratin filaments in the cell periphery. May regulate K8/K18 filament and desmosome organization mainly at the apical or peripheral regions of simple epithelial cells.,similarity:Belongs to the TCHP family.,subunit:Interacts specifically with keratin proteins including, KRT5, KRT6A, KRT8, KRT14, KRT16 and KRT18., Protein function: Tumor suppressor which has the ability to inhibit cell growth and be pro-apoptotic during cell stress. Inhibits cell growth in bladder and prostate cancer cells by a down-regulation of HSPB1 by inhibiting its phosphorylation. May act as a 'capping' or 'branching' protein for keratin filaments in the cell periphery. May regulate K8/K18 filament and desmosome organization mainly at the apical or peripheral regions of simple epithelial cells (PubMed:15731013, PubMed:18931701). Is a negative regulator of ciliogenesis (PubMed:25270598). [The UniProt Consortium] Recommended dilutions: WB 1:500-2000 ELISA 1:5000-20000. Cellular localization: Cytoplasm, cytoskeleton . Cytoplasm . Cell membrane . Mitochondrion . Cell junction, desmosome .
