Purity | This affinity purified antibody is directed against human PACRG protein. The product was affinity purified from monospecific antiserum by immunoaffinity purification. A BLAST analysis was used to suggest reactivity with this protein from human, mouse and chicken based on 100% homology for the immunogen sequence. Cross reactivity with PACRG protein from zebrafish and rat may occur as this sequence only varies by one amino acid residue (94% homology). Expect reactivity with both splice variants of this protein. Cross reactivity with PACRG homologues from other sources has not been determined. |
Storage Condition | Store vial at -20° C prior to opening. Aliquot contents and freeze at -20° C or below for extended storage. Avoid cycles of freezing and thawing. Centrifuge product if not completely clear after standing at room temperature. This product is stable for several weeks at 4° C as an undiluted liquid. Dilute only prior to immediate use. |
Precautions Note | This product is for research use only and is not intended for therapeutic or diagnostic applications. |

Function | Microtubule inner protein (MIP) part of the dynein-decorated doublet microtubules (DMTs) in cilia axoneme, which is required for motile cilia beating (PubMed:36191189). Suppresses cell death induced by accumulation of unfolded Pael receptor (Pael-R, a substrate of Parkin) (PubMed:14532270). Facilitates the formation of inclusions consisting of Pael-R, molecular chaperones, protein degradation molecules and itself when proteasome is inhibited (PubMed:14532270). May play an important role in the formation of Lewy bodies and protection of dopaminergic neurons against Parkinson disease (PubMed:14532270). |
Cellular Location | Cytoplasm, cytoskeleton, cilium axoneme. Cytoplasm, cytoskeleton, flagellum axoneme {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q9DAK2} |
Tissue Location | Expressed in all immune tissues, spleen, lymph nodes, thymus, tonsils, leukocyte and bone marrow. Expressed also in heart, brain, skeletal muscle, kidney, lung and pancreas. Expressed in primary Schwann cells and very weakly by monocyte-derived macrophages the primary host cells of Mycobacterium leprae, the causative agent of leprosy. Component of Lewy bodies, intraneuronal inclusions found in the brain of Parkinson disease patients. |

Background
PACRG (also known as Parkin coregulated gene protein and PARK2 coregulated) is a gene located very close to parkin, in reverse orientation on the chromosome. It is thought to be co-transcribed with parkin by a bi-directional promoter between the two genes. PACRG is expressed in all immune tissues, spleen, lymph nodes, thymus, tonsils, leukocyte and bone marrow and is also expressed in heart, brain, skeletal muscle, kidney, lung and pancreas. PACRG is expressed in primary Schwann cells and very weakly by monocyte-derived macrophages, which are the primary host cells of Mycobacterium leprae, the causative agent of leprosy. Splice variants have been described for this protein.
