TMEM25 polyclonal antibody

TMEM25 is a novel member of the immunoglobulin superfamily. BC042896 and AY358919 cDNAs are derived from human TMEM25 gene. TMEM25 isoform 1 (BC042896), consisting of exons 1-9, encodes a 366-aa transmembrane protein. TMEM25 isoform 2 (AY358919), consisting of exons 1-4 and 6-9, encodes a 322-aa secreted protein (PMID:15254712). Human TMEM25 gene are found to encode transmembrane-type as well as secreted-type proteins due to alternative splicing of exon-skipping type. TMEM25 mRNA is expressed in brain, including cerebellar cortex and hippocampus, as well as in neuroblastoma, brain tumors, and gastric cancer. TMEM25 is a target of pharmacogenomics in the field of oncology and regenerative medicine. TMEM25 mRNAs may be useful members of a panel of favorable prognostic and predictive markers for breast cancer( PMID:19776672).
