HERV-R_7q21.2 provirus ancestral Env polyprotein, also known as ERV3-1, is a protein that in humans is encoded by the ERV3 gene. By radiation hybrid analysis, the ERV3 gene is mapped to chromosome 7q11.2. The human genome includes many retroelements including the human endogenous retroviruses (HERVs). ERV3, one of the most studied HERVs, is thought to have integrated 30 to 40 million years ago and is present in higher primates with the exception of gorillas. Taken together, the observation of genome conservation, the detection of transcript expression, and the presence of conserved ORFs is circumstantial evidence for a functional role. A functional role is also suggested by the observation that downregulation of ERV3 is reported in choriocarcinoma. Functional note: Retroviral envelope proteins mediate receptor recognition and membrane fusion during early infection. Endogenous envelope proteins may have kept, lost or modified their original function during evolution. This endogenous envelope protein has lost its fusogenic properties. It can inhibit cell growth through decrease expression of cyclin B1 and increased expression of p21 in vitro. . Reported localization: Virion. Expression\/tissue context: Expressed at higher level in adrenal, sebaceous glands and placenta. Expressed at lower level in bone marrow, brain, breast, colon, heart, kidney, liver, lung, ovary, PBL, prostate, skin, spleen, testis, thymus, thyroid, trachea. .\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch2\u003eResearch relevance and current trends\u003c\/h2\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eMechanistic pathway studies: Researchers commonly examine how ERV3-1 (Endogenous retrovirus group 3 member 1 Env polyprotein) relates to this theme using model systems and orthogonal readouts.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBiomarker profiling across models: Researchers commonly examine how ERV3-1 (Endogenous retrovirus group 3 member 1 Env polyprotein) relates to this theme using model systems and orthogonal readouts.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePerturbation-response experiments (time-course\/dose–response): Researchers commonly examine how ERV3-1 (Endogenous retrovirus group 3 member 1 Env polyprotein) relates to this theme using model systems and orthogonal readouts.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e \u003ch2\u003eCommon research applications\u003c\/h2\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eWestern blotting: compare relative ERV3-1 (Endogenous retrovirus group 3 member 1 Env polyprotein) levels across conditions; band patterns may reflect isoforms and processing.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e \u003ch2\u003eNotes for experimental interpretation\u003c\/h2\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSpecificity notes:\u003c\/strong\u003e No cross reactivity with other proteins.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCross-reactivity:\u003c\/strong\u003e No cross-reactivity with other proteins\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIsoforms and PTMs:\u003c\/strong\u003e Apparent size and signal patterns can differ across splice isoforms, proteolytic processing, and post-translational modifications.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eControls:\u003c\/strong\u003e Include an isotype control (as relevant), no-primary control for imaging, and orthogonal validation such as KD\/KO samples when available.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e \u003c!-- Sources (internal): - UniProt entry for Q14264: https:\/\/www.uniprot.org\/uniprotkb\/Q14264\/entry - PubMed search (ERV3-1): https:\/\/pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/?term=ERV3-1 - NCBI Gene search (ERV3-1): https:\/\/www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/gene\/?term=ERV3-1 - Antibody validation concepts (NIH): https:\/\/www.nih.gov\/research-training\/rigor-reproducibility --\u003e","brand":"Boster Bio","offers":[{"title":"100 ug\/vial \/ Unconjugated","offer_id":53066833002861,"sku":"RP1091","price":370.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"100 ug\/vial \/ Biotin","offer_id":53067122311533,"sku":"RP1091-Biotin","price":570.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"100 ug\/vial \/ Cy3","offer_id":53067122344301,"sku":"RP1091-Cy3","price":570.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"100 ug\/vial \/ Fluoro488","offer_id":53067122377069,"sku":"RP1091-Fluoro488","price":570.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"100 ug\/vial \/ Fluoro550","offer_id":53067122409837,"sku":"RP1091-Fluoro550","price":570.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"100 ug\/vial \/ Fluoro594","offer_id":53067122442605,"sku":"RP1091-Fluoro594","price":570.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"100 ug\/vial \/ FITC","offer_id":53067122475373,"sku":"RP1091-FITC","price":570.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"100 ug\/vial \/ HRP","offer_id":53067122508141,"sku":"RP1091-HRP","price":570.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"100 ug\/vial \/ APC","offer_id":53067122540909,"sku":"RP1091-APC","price":820.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"100 ug\/vial \/ PE","offer_id":53067122573677,"sku":"RP1091-PE","price":820.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"100 ug\/vial \/ Fluoro647","offer_id":53067122606445,"sku":"RP1091-Fluoro647","price":670.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"100 ug\/vial \/ Carrier Free","offer_id":53067122639213,"sku":"RP1091-carrier-free","price":370.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0949\/7424\/7277\/files\/rp1091-erv31-primary-antibodies-wb-testing-1.jpg?v=1772608192","url":"https:\/\/www.ebiohippo.com\/products\/anti-erv31-erv3-1-antibody-picoband-bha21000648","provider":"BioHippo","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
