Key elements and design rationale
- Antibody format: Rabbit Polyclonal Rabbit IgG
- Immunogen / epitope context: E. coli-derived human NEDD4 recombinant protein (Position: N960-F1245). (reported region: N960-F1245).
- Molecular weight context: reported MW: 149 kDa; calculated MW: nan
- Reactivity: Human,Mouse,Rat
- Applications: ELISA, WB
As a polyclonal antibody, the reagent recognizes multiple epitopes on the target, which can improve detection robustness but may increase sensitivity to sample-dependent epitope changes.
Biological background
neural precursor cell expressed, developmentally down-regulated 4, E3 ubiquitin protein ligase. E3 ubiquitin-protein ligase NEDD4, also known as neural precursor cell expressed developmentally down-regulated protein 4 (NEDD4), is an enzyme that in humans is encoded by the NEDD4 gene. This gene is the founding member of the NEDD4 family of HECT ubiquitin ligases that function in the ubiquitin proteasome system of protein degradation. The encoded protein contains an N-terminal calcium and phospholipid binding C2 domain followed by multiple tryptophan-rich WW domains and, a C-terminal HECT ubiquitin ligase catalytic domain. It plays critical role in the regulation of a number of membrane receptors, endocytic machinery components and the tumor suppressor PTEN. Functional note: E3 ubiquitin-protein ligase which accepts ubiquitin from an E2 ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme in the form of a thioester and then ly transfers the ubiquitin to targeted substrates. Specifically ubiquitinates 'Lys-63' in target proteins (PubMed:23644597). Involved in the pathway leading to the degradation of VEGFR-2/KDFR, independently of its ubiquitin-ligase activity. Monoubiquitinates IGF1R at multiple sites, thus leading to receptor internalization and degradation in lysosomes. Ubiquitinates FGFR1, leading to receptor internalization and degradation in lysosomes. Promotes ubiquitination of RAPGEF2. According to PubMed:18562292 the link between NEDD4 and PTEN regulation through polyubiquitination described in PubMed:17218260 is questionable. Involved in ubiquitination of ERBB4 intracellular domain E4ICD. Involved in the budding of many viruses. Part of a signaling complex composed of NEDD4, RAP2A and TNIK which regulates neuronal dendrite extension and arborization during development. Ubiquitinates TNK2 and regulates EGF-induced degradation of EGFR and TNF2. Involved in the ubiquitination of ebola virus VP40 protein and this ubiquitination plays a role in facilitating viral budding. Ubiquitinates BRAT1 and this ubiquitination is enhanced in the presence of NDFIP1 (PubMed:25631046). Reported localization: Cytoplasm. Cell membrane; Recruited to the plasma membrane by GRB10. Once complexed with GRB10 and IGF1R, follows IGF1R internalization, remaining associated with early endosomes. Uncouples from IGF1R-containing endosomes before the sorting of the receptor to the lysosomal compartment (By similarity). May be recruited to exosomes by NDFIP1.
Research relevance and current trends
- Chromatin Modifying Enzymes: Researchers commonly examine how NEDD4 relates to this theme using model systems and orthogonal readouts.
- Epigenetics and Nuclear Signaling: Researchers commonly examine how NEDD4 relates to this theme using model systems and orthogonal readouts.
- Proteasome / Ubiquitin: Researchers commonly examine how NEDD4 relates to this theme using model systems and orthogonal readouts.
Common research applications
- Western blotting: compare relative NEDD4 levels across conditions; band patterns may reflect isoforms and processing.
- ELISA-compatible use: when applicable, interpret signal as relative abundance across sample sets with consistent handling and dilution strategy.
Notes for experimental interpretation
- Specificity notes: No cross reactivity with other proteins.
- Cross-reactivity: No cross-reactivity with other proteins.
- Isoforms and PTMs: Apparent size and signal patterns can differ across splice isoforms, proteolytic processing, and post-translational modifications.
- Controls: Include an isotype control (as relevant), no-primary control for imaging, and orthogonal validation such as KD/KO samples when available.
