Western blot analysis of PPEF1 over-expressed 293 cell line, cotransfected with PPEF1 Validated Chimera RNAi ( Cat # H00005475-R01V ) (Lane 2) or non-transfected control (Lane 1). Blot probed with PPEF1 monoclonal antibody (M01), clone 1F6-1A5 (Cat # H00005475-M01 ). GAPDH ( 36.1 kDa ) used as specificity and loading control.
This gene encodes a member of the serine/threonine protein phosphatase with EF-hand motif family. The protein contains a protein phosphatase catalytic domain, and at least two EF-hand calcium-binding motifs in its C terminus. Although its substrate(s) is unknown, the encoded protein has been suggested to play a role in specific sensory neuron function and/or development. This gene shares high sequence similarity with the Drosophila retinal degeneration C (rdgC) gene. Several alternatively spliced transcript variants, each encoding a distinct isoform, have been described. [provided by RefSeq
