Chemical compound and disease context of EMP1

 

Biological context of EMP1

  • EPO-mimetic peptides, such as EMP1, also bind and activate the receptor by dimerization [14].
  • The ability of this peptide to effectively serve as a mimetic capable of the induction of EPO-responsive cell proliferation appears to reside within a single residue, equivalent to position Tyr4 of EMP1, when present in a sequence that includes the cyclic core peptide structure [15].
  • cDNA cloning, genomic structure, and chromosome mapping of the human epithelial membrane protein CL-20 gene (EMP1), a member of the PMP22 family [16].
  • The hCL-20 gene contains five exons about 0.2, 0.12, 0.1, 0.14, and 2.2 kb and four introns about 15, 1.9, 0.1, and 0.7 kb [16].
  • Like PMP22, CL-20 is likely to play important roles in the regulation of cell proliferation, differentiation, and cell death [16].
 

Anatomical context of EMP1

  • One EPO mimetic peptide sequence, EMP1, was targeted and more than 25 derivatives of this sequence were evaluated for their ability to compete with [125I]EPO for receptor binding and for their ability to support the proliferation of two EPO-responsive cell lines [15].
  • Retinoic acid, which inhibits squamous differentiation, represses CL-20 expression in normal human bronchial epithelial cells [16].
  • CL-20 is a novel gene encoding a protein that is structurally related to but distinct from the peripheral myelin protein PMP22 [16].
  • The expression patterns of the TMP and PMP22 genes in NIH-3T3 fibroblasts were compared at different proliferation states [1].
  • B4B, a novel growth-arrest gene, is expressed by a subset of progenitor/pre-B lymphocytes negative for cytoplasmic mu-chain [17].
 

Associations of EMP1 with chemical compounds

  • A gene isolated in this screen, named TMP (tumor-associated membrane protein), codes for a putative glycoprotein with four transmembrane domains [1].
  • Epithelial membrane protein-1 is a biomarker of gefitinib resistance [2].
  • Effect of barrier-breaking agents on intracellular pH and epithelial membrane resistances: studies in isolated Necturus antral mucosa exposed to luminal acid [18].
  • In these studies, we define a monoclonal antibody, C5/D5, raised against epithelial membrane preparations, which markedly inhibits PMN migration across polarized monolayers of the human intestinal epithelial cell line T84 in a bidirectional fashion [19].
  • Finally the orientation of the galactose toward the gp41 lectin site appears to be controlled by the lipid microenvironment of the epithelial membrane [20].
 

Physical interactions of EMP1

  • Thus, positive staining with epithelial membrane antigen and the identification of a large number of rough endoplasmic reticulum-mitochondrial complexes are suggestive of metastatic chordoma [21].
 

Co-localisations of EMP1

 

Regulatory relationships of EMP1

 

Other interactions of EMP1

  • Identification of a 13 amino acid peptide mimetic of erythropoietin and description of amino acids critical for the mimetic activity of EMP1 [15].
  • A member of this peptide family, EMP1 (EPO mimetic peptide 1), was used to solve the crystal structure of the soluble EPO receptor in complex with this peptide [24].
  • In one strain of parasite there was a significant difference in relative mobility of the 125I-surface-labeled Pf EMP 1 and the biosynthetically labeled Pf EMP 2, further distinguishing these proteins [25].
  • As markers BCEI and D21S154 have previously been localized to 21q22.3 by physical methods, our findings place the EMP1 gene locus (for progressive myoclonus epilepsy of the Unverricht-Lundborg type) in chromosome 21 band q22 [26].
  • Immunohistochemical studies were performed with the avidin-biotin-peroxidase complex method using monoclonal antibodies to p53(DO7), CD99(O13), epithelial membrane antigen, CD5(NCL-CD5-4C7), vimentin (V9), and cytokeratins 7, 8, 18, and 19 [27].
