Monoclonal Anti-SCARA3 antibody produced in mouse

This gene encodes a macrophage scavenger receptor-like protein. This protein has been shown to deplete reactive oxygen species, and thus play an important role in protecting cells from oxidative stress. The expression of this gene is induced by oxidative stress. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding distinct isoforms have been described. (provided by RefSeq)

SCARA3 (NP_057324, 316 a.a. ~ 415 a.a) partial recombinant protein with GST tag. MW of the GST tag alone is 26 KDa.

Scavenger receptor class A member 3 (SCARA3) protects cells against ultraviolet (UV) irradiation and oxidative stress. Reduced expression of SCARA3 increases oxidative stress in keratoconus (KC) cells in vitro. Quantitative polymerase chain reaction (PCR) analysis proves that SCARA3 transcript is highly expressed in ovarian/primary peritoneal carcinoma (OC/PPC) compared to breast carcinoma effusions. SCARA3 represses tumor growth and metastasis of prostate cancer. Therefore, it can be used as a potential therapeutic target for treating aggressive types of prostate cancer.
