Foundational characteristics of cancer include proliferation, angiogenesis, migration, evasion of apoptosis, and cellular immortality. Find key markers for these cellular processes and antibodies to detect them.
The SUMOplot™ Analysis Program predicts and scores sumoylation sites in your protein. SUMOylation is a post-translational modification involved in various cellular processes, such as nuclear-cytosolic transport, transcriptional regulation, apoptosis, protein stability, response to stress, and progression through the cell cycle.
The Autophagy Receptor Motif Plotter predicts and scores autophagy receptor binding sites in your protein. Identifying proteins connected to this pathway is critical to understanding the role of autophagy in physiological as well as pathological processes such as development, differentiation, neurodegenerative diseases, stress, infection, and cancer.

| Reactivity | Human |
| Clonality | Polyclonal |
Application 
| WB, E, I, LCI |
| Application Note | This affinity purified antibody has been tested for use in ELISA and by western blot. Specific conditions for reactivity should be optimized by the end user. Expect a band approximately 43 kDa in size corresponding to UBP43 by western blotting in the appropriate cell lysate or extract. |
| Physical State | Liquid (sterile filtered) |
| Buffer | 0.02 M Potassium Phosphate, 0.15 M Sodium Chloride, pH 7.2 |
| Immunogen | This affinity purified antibody was prepared from whole rabbit serum produced by repeated immunizations with a synthetic peptide corresponding to an internal region near aa 25-50 of human UBP43 protein. |
| Preservative | 0.01% (w/v) Sodium Azide |
| Gene ID | 11274 |

| Other Names | 11274 |
| Purity | This affinity-purified antibody is directed against human UBP43 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, chimpanzee and orangutan based on 100% homology for the immunogen sequence. The core 7 amino acid sequence QPRERPR of the 10 amino acid immunogen sequence may be reactive with UBP43 from mouse and dog. This core sequence also shows partial homology with proteins other than UBP43. Cross reactivity with UBP43 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. |

| Synonyms | ISG43 |
| Function | Interferon-induced ISG15-specific protease that plays a crucial role for maintaining a proper balance of ISG15-conjugated proteins in cells (PubMed:11788588). Regulates protein ISGylation by efficiently cleaving ISG15 conjugates linked via isopeptide bonds. Regulates T-cell activation and T-helper 17 (Th17) cell differentiation by deubiquitinating TAK1, likely to keep TAK1-TAB complexes in steady conditions (PubMed:23825189). In turn, restricts activation of NF- kappa-B, NFAT, and JNK as well as expression of IL2 in T-cells after TCR activation (PubMed:23825189). Acts as a molecular adapter with USP20 to promote innate antiviral response through deubiquitinating STING1 (PubMed:27801882). Involved also in the negative regulation of the inflammatory response triggered by type I interferon (PubMed:27325888, PubMed:28165510). Upon recruitment by STAT2 to the type I interferon receptor subunit IFNAR2 interferes with the assembly of the ternary interferon-IFNAR1-IFNAR2 complex and acts as a negative regulator of the type I interferon signaling pathway (PubMed:28165510). |

Background
UBP43 (also known as ISG43, Ubl thiolesterase 18, ISG15-specific processing protease, 43 kDa ISG15-specific protease, ubiquitin specific protease 18 or USP18) is a member of the deubiquitinating protease family of enzymes, which removes ubiquitin adducts from a broad range of protein substrates. Deletion of the UBP43 gene in mouse leads to a massive increase of ISG15 conjugates in tissues indicating that UBP43 is a major ISG15-specific protease. UBP43 is the first ISG15-specific protease reported. Both ISG15 and UBP43 genes are known to be strongly induced by interferon, genotoxic stress, and viral infection. Thus UBP43 may be necessary to maintain a critical cellular balance of ISG15-conjugated proteins in both healthy and stressed organisms.
