Melanoma Antigen Family A 8, also known as MAGEA8 belongs to the MAGEgene family, which includes twelve known genes, of which six are expressed intumors. Furthermore, the MAGE genes were at first isolated from different kindsof tumors, and according to their virtually exclusive tumor-specific expressionin adult tissues, they have been used as targets for cancer immunotherapy.
MAGEA8 Human Recombinant produced in E.Coli is a single, non-glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 341 amino acids (1-318 a.a) and having a molecular mass of 37.6kDa.MAGEA8 is fused to a 23 amino acid His-tag at N-terminus & purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques.
UniProt Protein Function: | Not known, though may play a role in embryonal development and tumor transformation or aspects of tumor progression. |

NCBI Summary: | This gene is a member of the MAGEA gene family. The members of this family encode proteins with 50 to 80% sequence identity to each other. The promoters and first exons of the MAGEA genes show considerable variability, suggesting that the existence of this gene family enables the same function to be expressed under different transcriptional controls. The MAGEA genes are clustered at chromosomal location Xq28. They have been implicated in some hereditary disorders, such as dyskeratosis congenita. Multiple alternatively spliced variants, encoding the same protein, have been identified. [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2009] |
