Research AreasMetabolism

Function

Represents a potent melanoma-specific antigen. Among melanoma non-mutated self-peptides, G9-154 (KTWGQYWQV), G9-209 (ITDQVPFSV) and G9-280 (YLEPGPVTA), appear to act as immunodominant common epitopes that stimulate anti-tumor immune response mediated by HLA-A-restricted cytotoxic T cells.

Biological Context

Subcellular Location: Endoplasmic reticulum membrane (Single-pass type I membrane protein); Golgi apparatus, cis-Golgi network membrane (Single-pass type I membrane protein); Endosome, multivesicular body; Melanosome; Extracellular vesicle; Secreted
Tissue Specificity: Normally expressed at low levels in quiescent adult melanocytes but overexpressed by proliferating neonatal melanocytes and during tumor growth. Overexpressed in melanomas. Some expression was found in dysplastic nevi

Product Specifications

Subunit

Homodimer; disulfide-linked. Dimerization in the endoplasmic reticulum and early Golgi prevents premature fibril formation. The dimers are resolved to monomers in late- or post-Golgi compartments (PubMed:26694611). Heterooligomer; amyloid-type. Processed amyloidogenic fragments assemble into fibrils that further organize into beta-sheet quaternary amyloid structures (PubMed:28272432, PubMed:30988362). Interacts (via luminal C-terminal fragment) with CD63; this is important for sorting of the luminal fragment in tetraspanin rich microdomains in stage I melanosomes to prevent premature lysosomal degradation (PubMed:21962903). Interacts with APOE; this allows the loading of the luminal fragment on ILVs to induce fibril nucleation (PubMed:26387950). Interacts with MLANA (PubMed:15695812)
