Description_x000D_ General description_x000D_ The Tom (translocase of the mitochondrial outer membrane) complex consists of two integral membrane import receptors, Tom20 and Tom70 (translocase of outer mitochondrial membrane 70) and a GIP (general import pore) complex. TOM70/ TOMM70A has 12 coding exons and spans about 37kb. It is abundantly expressed in human tissues and is located on human chromosome 3q13.1-q13.2. It belongs to the tetratricopeptide repeat (TPR) co-chaperone family. TOM70 has a dicarboxylate TPR clamp domain that can interact with molecular chaperones like Hsp70 (heat shock protein 70)/Hsc70 and/or Hsp90._x000D_ Immunogen_x000D_ TOM70 antibody was raised against a 17 amino acid peptide near the amino terminus of human TOM70._x000D_ Physical form_x000D_ Supplied in PBS with 0.02% sodium azide._x000D_ Disclaimer_x000D_ Unless otherwise stated in our catalog or other company documentation accompanying the product(s), our products are intended for research use only and are not to be used for any other purpose, which includes but is not limited to, unauthorized commercial uses, in vitro diagnostic uses, ex vivo or in vivo therapeutic uses or any type of consumption or application to humans or animals._x000D_ Biochem/physiol Actions_x000D_ TOM70/ TOMM70A (translocase of outer mitochondrial membrane 70) has the capability to identify preproteins with internal hydrophobic targeting sequences. It contributes in the transportation of several large hydrophobic matrix proteins. The import receptor Tom70 acts as a docking site for cytosolic multichaperone complexes._x000D_ Features and Benefits_x000D_ Evaluate our antibodies with complete peace of mind.
