General description
Tumor susceptibility gene 101 protein (TSG101) is mapped to human chromosome 11p15.1. TSG101 has ubiquitin E2 variant domain.
Immunogen
synthetic peptide corresponding amino acids 2-20 located at the N-terminus of human TSG101, conjugated to KLH. This sequence is identical in rat and mouse TSG101.
Biochem/physiol Actions
Tumor susceptibility gene 101 protein (TSG101) is a component of endosomal sorting complex required for transport (ESCRT) machinery. TSG101 interacts with arrestin domain-containing protein 1 and mediates its budding through plasma membrane. It binds to ubiquitinylated proteins and conveys them for degradation by lysosomes. TSG101 is also essential for the budding human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infected cells. TSG101 deficiency is associated with genome instability and is considered as a risk factor for tumor initiation.
Physical form
