Biological background
Protein function (datasheet): GGA1: Plays a role in protein sorting and trafficking betweenthe trans-Golgi network (TGN) and endosomes. Mediates the ARF-dependent recruitment of clathrin to the TGN and bindsubiquitinated proteins and membrane cargo molecules with acytosolic acidic cluster-dileucine (AC-LL) motif.|GGA2: Plays a role in protein sorting and trafficking betweenthe trans-Golgi network (TGN) and endosomes.

Scientific background (datasheet): Gamma-tubulin is a universal component of microtubule organizing centers, which is essential for nuclear division and microtubule assembly in Aspergillus nidulans. TUBG1 mapped to within 20 kb of TUBG2 at 17q21. Gamma-tubulin is a minor protein, present at less than 1% the level of alpha- and beta-tubulin, and is limited to the centrosome. Gamma-tubulin is present in Drosophila melanogaster and Homo sapiens.

Tissue details (datasheet): GGA1: Ubiquitously expressed.
Sequence similarities (datasheet): Belongs to the GGA protein family.
Research relevance and current trends
- Commonly studied in contexts related to Golgi Proteins,Protein Trafficking,Signal Transduction.
- Supports comparative expression analysis across conditions, genotypes, or treatments when paired with appropriate controls.
- Useful for confirming target presence and subcellular distribution using orthogonal readouts (e.g., microscopy vs. immunoblotting).
Common research applications
- Western blot (WB): Compare relative target abundance and apparent size/isoforms across samples; interpret bands in light of expected MW and potential PTMs.
- Immunofluorescence / ICC: Visualize subcellular localization and co-localization patterns; consider fixation/permeabilization compatibility and controls.
Notes for experimental interpretation
- Consider isoforms, post-translational modifications, and processing that can shift apparent molecular weight or localization.
- Cross-reactivity (datasheet): No cross-reactivity with other proteins
- Use appropriate positive and negative controls (e.g., KO/KD, blocking peptide, or isotype controls) to support specificity interpretation.
As a monoclonal antibody, this reagent is expected to recognize a defined epitope, which can support consistency across lots when epitope accessibility is preserved.
