BUD31 Polyclonal Antibody

BUD31 (Protein G10 homolog, EDG-2) is a 144 amino acid protein encoded by the human gene BUD31. BUD31 is a nuclear protein that belongs to the BUD31 (G10) family. BUD31 is found on chromosome 7 which is about 158 milllion bases long, encodes over 1,000 genes and makes up about 5% of the human genome. Chromosome 7 has been linked to osteogenesis imperfecta, Pendred syndrome, lissencephaly, citrullinemia and Shwachman-Diamond syndrome. The deletion of a portion of the long (q) arm of human chromosome 7 is associated with Williams-Beuren syndrome, a condition characterized by mild mental retardation, an unusual comfort and friendliness with strangers and an elfin appearance. Deletions of portions of the q arm of chromosome 7 are also seen in a number of myeloid disorders including cases of acute myelogenous leukemia and myelodysplasia.
