Anti-SIP

0.5mg/ml if reconstituted with 0.2ml sterile DI water. CACYBP (Calcyclin-binding protein), also called SIP (SIAH Interacting Protein), is a protein that in humans is encoded by the CACYBP gene. The full-length SIP cDNA encodes a predicted 228-amino acid protein. Sequence analysis of the shortest cDNA derived by 2-hybrid screening revealed an 8-amino acid difference in the deduced open reading frame followed by a stop codon, resulting in a predicted 80-amino acid protein, SIP-short (SIPS). The CACYBP gene is mapped on 1q25.1. It may be involved in calcium-dependent ubiquitination and subsequent proteosomal degradation of target proteins. It probably serves as a molecular bridge in ubiquitin E3 complexes and participates in the ubiquitin-mediated degradation of beta-catenin. Two alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. The C-terminal region of SIP that is homologous to SGT1 was able to complement defects in yeast strains containing SGT1 mutant alleles, demonstrating conservation of SGT1 and SIP protein function. Protein function: May be involved in calcium-dependent ubiquitination and subsequent proteasomal degradation of target proteins. Probably serves as a molecular bridge in ubiquitin E3 complexes. Participates in the ubiquitin-mediated degradation of beta-catenin (CTNNB1). [The UniProt Consortium]
