    Protocol

    Specificity / Sensitivity

    GIMAP5 Antibody recognizes endogenous levels of total GIMAP5 protein. This antibody also recognizes proteins of unknown origin at 12 kDa and 50 kDa.

    Species Reactivity:

    Human

    Source / Purification

    Polyclonal antibodies are produced by immunizing animals with a synthetic peptide corresponding to residues near the amino terminus of human GIMAP5 protein. Antibodies are purified by protein A and peptide affinity chromatography.

    Background

    GTPase immune-associated proteins (GIMAP), also known as immune-associated nucleotide-binding (IAN) proteins, are evolutionarily conserved GTP-binding proteins involved in lymphocyte development, inflammation, and autoimmune diseases (reviewed in 1,2). Human GTPase IMAP family member 5 (GIMAP5, hIan5) is the homolog of the rat Ian4 protein that is mutated in severe cases of T-cell lymphopenia and insulin-dependent diabetes in Biobreeding diabetes-prone (BB-DP) rats (3,4). GIMAP5 protein is preferentially expressed in CD4- and CD8-positive T-cells as well as B-cell lymphomas (4). Research studies using GIMAP5-deficient mice show that GIMAP5 protein is critical for survival of peripheral T-cells, hematopoietic stem cells, and progenitor cells (5-7). Additional studies indicate that GIMAP5 deficiency leads to a loss of immunological tolerance (8). Polymorphisms in the human GIMAP5 gene are associated with systemic lupus erythematosus and type I diabetes (9-11). Potential mechanisms for GIMAP5 control of cell survival include regulation of Bcl-2 family proteins, mitochondrial integrity, lysosomal function, and calcium regulation (5,7, 11-14).
