Anti-PSE/SPDEF Antibody Picoband® fluoro488 Vervoeging

SAM pointed domain-containing Ets transcription factor is a protein that in humans is encoded by the SPDEF gene. The protein encoded by this gene belongs to the ETS family of transcription factors. It is highly expressed in the prostate epithelial cells, and functions as an androgen-independent transactivator of prostate-specific antigen (PSA) promoter. Higher expression of this protein has also been reported in brain, breast, lung and ovarian tumors, compared to the corresponding normal tissues, and it shows better tumor-association than other cancer-associated molecules, making it a more suitable target for developing specific cancer therapies. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene.

Liquid

Responsible for the deiodination of T4 (3,5,3',5'-tetraiodothyronine) into T3 (3,5,3'-triiodothyronine) and of T3 into T2 (3,3'-diiodothyronine) . Plays a role in providing a source of plasma T3 by deiodination of T4 in peripheral tissues such as liver and kidney.
