Description_x000D_ General description_x000D_ Coiled-coil and C2 domain containing 1A (CC2D1A) gene codes for a signaling scaffold, which has multiple functions. It is also called Freud-1 (Five prime REpressor Under Dual repression binding protein 1), and belongs to CC2D1A gene family, which also contains the homologous gene CC2D1B/Freud-2. CC2D1A is expressed in cytosol, centrosome and nucleus and is also known as Akt kinase-interacting protein 1 (Aki1). The CC2D1A family consists of a DM14 domain, a C2 domain and two conserved motifs. CC2D1A gene is localized to the chromosomal region 19p13.12._x000D_ Immunogen_x000D_ Coiled-coil and C2 domain-containing protein 1A recombinant protein epitope signature tag (PrEST)_x000D_ Application_x000D_ All Prestige Antibodies Powered by Atlas Antibodies are developed and validated by the Human Protein Atlas (HPA) project (www.proteinatlas.org)and as a result, are supported by the most extensive characterization in the industry._x000D_ The Human Protein Atlas project can be subdivided into three efforts: Human Tissue Atlas, Cancer Atlas, and Human Cell Atlas. The antibodies that have been generated in support of the Tissue and Cancer Atlas projects have been tested by immunohistochemistry against hundreds of normal and disease tissues and through the recent efforts of the Human Cell Atlas project, many have been characterized by immunofluorescence to map the human proteome not only at the tissue level but now at the subcellular level. These images and the collection of this vast data set can be viewed on the Human Protein Atlas (HPA) site by clicking on the Image Gallery link.

LLC_x000D_ Biochem/physiol Actions_x000D_ CC2D1A (Coiled-coil and C2 domain containing 1A) protein plays an important role in nuclear factor κB (NF-κB) pathway as well as pathways involving protein kinase B (PKB). It also mediates intracellular trafficking and neuronal differentiation. This protein has a long and a short isoform, and the long isoform is the major isoform involved in the regulation, expression and localization of the 5-HT1A receptor gene. It acts as a scaffold in the phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K)/3-phosphoinositide-dependent protein kinase 1 (PDK1)/Akt pathway, when present in the cytosol. During mitosis, CC2D1A helps centriole cohesion by mediating the spindle pole localization of cohesin subunit Scc1. It also regulates cell survival by interacting with Epidermal Growth Factor (EGF), and thus inducing AKT phosphorylation. Mutations in this gene have been linked to non-syndromic mental retardation (NSMR). In humans, CC2D1A plays a supposed role in development of cognitive functions._x000D_ Features and Benefits_x000D_ Prestige Antibodies® are highly characterized and extensively validated antibodies with the added benefit of all available characterization data for each target being accessible via the Human Protein Atlas portal linked just below the product name at the top of this page. The uniqueness and low cross-reactivity of the Prestige Antibodies® to other proteins are due to a thorough selection of antigen regions, affinity purification, and stringent selection. Prestige antigen controls are available for every corresponding Prestige Antibody and can be found in the linkage section._x000D_ Every Prestige Antibody is tested in the following ways:_x000D_ • IHC tissue array of 44 normal human tissues and 20 of the most common cancer type tissues._x000D_ • Protein array of 364 human recombinant protein fragments._x000D_ • Validated for multiple commonly used applications such as IHC (Immunohistochemistry), IF (Immunofluorescence), and WB (Western Blot)_x000D_ Linkage_x000D_ Corresponding Antigen APREST70744.
