Target/Specificity | This TM55B antibody is generated from rabbits immunized with a KLH conjugated synthetic peptide between 183-211 amino acids from the C-terminal region of human TM55B. |
Dilution | WB~~1:1000 IHC-P~~1:10~50 FC~~1:10~50 |
Format | Purified polyclonal antibody supplied in PBS with 0.09% (W/V) sodium azide. This antibody is purified through a protein A column, followed by peptide affinity purification. |
Storage | Maintain refrigerated at 2-8°C for up to 2 weeks. For long term storage store at -20°C in small aliquots to prevent freeze-thaw cycles. |
Precautions | TM55B Antibody (C-term) is for research use only and not for use in diagnostic or therapeutic procedures. |
Name | PIP4P1 (HGNC:19299) |

Function | Catalyzes the hydrolysis of phosphatidylinositol-4,5- bisphosphate (PtdIns-4,5-P2) to phosphatidylinositol-4-phosphate (PtdIns-4-P) (PubMed:16365287). Does not hydrolyze phosphatidylinositol 3,4,5-trisphosphate, phosphatidylinositol 3,4-bisphosphate, inositol 3,5-bisphosphate, inositol 3,4-bisphosphate, phosphatidylinositol 5- monophosphate, phosphatidylinositol 4-monophosphate and phosphatidylinositol 3-monophosphate (PubMed:16365287). Regulates lysosomal positioning by recruiting JIP4 to lysosomal membranes, thus inducing retrograde transport of lysosomes along microtubules (PubMed:29146937). Contributes to assembly of the V-ATPase complex in lipid rafts of the lysosomal membrane and to subsequent amino acid- dependent activation of mTORC1 (PubMed:29644770). May play a role in the regulation of cellular cholesterol metabolism (PubMed:25035345). |

Background
TMEM55B catalyzes the degradation of phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate (PtdIns-4,5-P2) by removing the 4-phosphate (Ungewickell et al., 2005 [PubMed 16365287]).
