Target/Specificity | VTI1a; VTI1a antibody is human, mouse and rat reactive. At least two isoforms of VTI1a are known to exist; this antibody will detect both isoforms. VTI1a antibody is predicted to not cross-react with VTI1b. |
Reconstitution & Storage | VTI1a antibody can be stored at 4℃ for three months and -20℃, stable for up to one year. |
Precautions | VTI1a Antibody is for research use only and not for use in diagnostic or therapeutic procedures. |
Name | VTI1A |
---|---|
Function | V-SNARE that mediates vesicle transport pathways through interactions with t-SNAREs on the target membrane. These interactions are proposed to mediate aspects of the specificity of vesicle trafficking and to promote fusion of the lipid bilayers. Involved in vesicular transport from the late endosomes to the trans-Golgi network. Along with VAMP7, involved in an non-conventional RAB1-dependent traffic route to the cell surface used by KCNIP1 and KCND2. May be involved in increased cytokine secretion associated with cellular senescence. |
Cellular Location | Cytoplasmic vesicle. Golgi apparatus membrane; Single-pass type IV membrane protein |

Background
Vesicle transport through interaction with t-SNAREs homolog 1 (VTI1a and VTI1b) are involved in vesicular transport from the late endosomes to the trans-Golgi network (1). They are both localized in the trans-Golgi network, with VTI1a also found in the Golgi apparatus and VTI1b in endosomes (2,3). VTI1a mediates vesicle transport pathways through interactions with t-SNAREs on the target membrane and promotes fusion of the lipid bilayers (4). VTI1a may be concerned with increased secretion of cytokines associated with cellular senescence (5).
