ANT4 rabbit polyclonal, anti-human, mouse

Backgroud: The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the ADP/ATP carrier family of proteins that exchange cytosolic ADP for matrix ATP in the mitochondria. Cells over-expressing this gene have been shown to display an anti-apoptotic phenotype. This protein is also thought to play a role in spermatogenesis, where it is believed to associate with a part of the flagellar cytoskeleton and with glycolytic enzymes. Male mice with mutations in the mouse ortholog of this gene are sterile and spermatocytes display an early meiotic arrest phenotype. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms. [provided by RefSeq, Jan 2016],function:Catalyzes the exchange of ADP and ATP across the mitochondrial inner membrane. May serve to mediate energy generating and energy consuming processes in the distal flagellum, possibly as a nucleotide shuttle between flagellar glycolysis, protein phosphorylation and mechanisms of motility.,similarity:Belongs to the mitochondrial carrier family.,similarity:Contains 3 Solcar repeats.,subcellular location:In sperm flagellum this protein is located in the fibrous sheath, a non-mitochondrial region.,tissue specificity:Expressed in brain, liver, sperm and testis.,
