Key elements and design rationale
- Antibody format: Rabbit Polyclonal Rabbit IgG
- Immunogen / epitope context: E.coli-derived human SCP3 recombinant protein (Position: E18-E223). Human SCP3 shares 72% and 73% amino acid (aa) sequences identity with mouse and rat SCP3, respectively. (reported region: E18-E223).
- Molecular weight context: reported MW: 28 kDa; calculated MW: 27729 MW
- Reactivity: Human
- Applications: 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
Synaptonemal complex protein 3; Synaptonemal complex protein 3. SYCP3, also known as COR1 or SCP3, is a protein that in humans is encoded by the SYCP3 gene. It is mapped to 12q23.2. This gene encodes an essential structural component of the synaptonemal complex. This complex is involved in synapsis, recombination and segregation of meiotic chromosomes. Mutations in this gene are associated with azoospermia in males and susceptibility to pregnancy loss in females. Alternate splicing results in multiple transcript variants that encode the same protein. SYCP3 has an essential meiotic function in human spermatogenesis that is compromised by the mutant protein by dominant-negative interference. SYCP3 is linked to inherited aneuploidy in female germ cells and provides a model system for studying age-dependent degeneration in oocytes. Functional note: Component of the transverse filaments of synaptonemal complexes (SCS), formed between homologous chromosomes during meiotic prophase. Has an essential meiotic function in spermatogenesis. May be important for testis development. Required for efficient phosphorylation of HORMAD1 and HORMAD2 (By similarity). . Reported localization: Nucleus . Chromosome . In tripartite segments of synaptonemal complexes, irrespective of whether these are synapsed or unsynapsed. . Expression/tissue context: Testis-specific. .
