Peptide Synthesis> | the KLH-conjugated peptide CPPNSTEEKYKFMN, corresponding to the amino acids 97–110 in PfGet4 (PF3D7_1438600), was used as an immunogen in New Zealand rabbits and custom-generated by Genscript (USA). Antibodies were also affinity purified against the same peptide. | Get A Quote |
Tail-anchored (TA) proteins are defined by the absence of N-terminus signal sequence and the presence of a single transmembrane domain (TMD) proximal to their C-terminus. They play fundamental roles in cellular processes including vesicular trafficking, protein translocation and quality control. Some of the TA proteins are post-translationally integrated by the Guided Entry of TA (GET) pathway to the cellular membranes; with their N-terminus oriented towards the cytosol and C-terminus facing the organellar lumen. The TA repertoire and the GET machinery have been extensively characterized in the yeast and mammalian systems, however, they remain elusive in the human malaria parasite Plasmodium falciparum.
