Description: Proteasome subunit alpha type-4, also known as macropain subunit C9, proteasome component C9, and 20S proteasome subunit alpha-3, is a protein that in humans is encoded by the PSMA4 gene. The proteasome is a multicatalytic proteinase complex with a highly ordered ring-shaped 20S core structure. The core structure is composed of 4 rings of 28 non-identical subunits; 2 rings are composed of 7 alpha subunits and 2 rings are composed of 7 beta subunits. Proteasomes are distributed throughout eukaryotic cells at a high concentration and cleave peptides in an ATP/ubiquitin-dependent process in a non-lysosomal pathway. An essential function of a modified proteasome, the immunoproteasome, is the processing of class I MHC peptides. This gene encodes a member of the peptidase T1A family, that is a 20S core alpha subunit. Three alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene.
Immunogen: Amino acids 84-123 (NVLTNELRLIAQRYLLQYQEPIPCEQLVTALCDIKQAYTQ) from the human protein were used as the immunogen for the PSMA4 antibody.
Storage: After reconstitution, the PSMA4 antibody can be stored for up to one month at 4oC. For long-term, aliquot and store at -20 °C. Avoid repeated freezing and thawing.
