Anti-RARRES3 (Retinoic Acid Receptor Responder Protein 3, RAR-responsive Protein TIG3, Retinoid-indu

RARRES3 also called Tig3 or RIG1 is an 18kD, 164aa cytoplasmic protein within the LRAT family of growth inhibitory proteins, which are class II tumor-suppressors. RARRES3 is expressed in a variety of cells including epidermal keratinocytes, and may be downregulated in tumor cells and cell lines. It shows phospholipase activity and interaction with type I transglutaminase. A C-terminal hydrophobic region allows perinuclear localization. RARRES3 is not structurally related to other RARRES genes. A canine ortholog shares 72% aa identity within the region used as an immunogen, orthologs are unlikely in rodents.
