Biochem/physiol Actions

Centrosomal protein 164 (CEP164) plays an essential role in primary cilium formation. In addition, it also acts as a potential marker for distal appendages on mature centrioles or basal bodies. Mutation in the gene is associated with early defects in ciliogenesis. CEP164 directs tau tubulin kinase 2 (TTBK2) to the mother centriole and thus stimulates ciliogenesis.

Features and Benefits

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.Every Prestige Antibody is tested in the following ways: IHC tissue array of 44 normal human tissues and 20 of the most common cancer type tissues. Protein array of 364 human recombinant protein fragments.

General description

Centrosomal protein 164 (CEP164) is a centriole appendage protein encoded by the gene mapped to human chromosome 11q23.3. CEP164 is apparently a 164kDa protein composed of 1,460 amino acids and is specifically localized on mature centrioles. The encoded protein mainly contains a putative N-terminal WW domain and three coiled-coil domains.
