Perilipin-3/TIP47 Antibody [FITC]

TIP47 (tail-interacting protein 47) is a member of PAT family of proteins (perilipin, ADRP, S3-12 and OXPAT) which plays a key role in the packaging/storage of neutral lipids and is required for mannose 6-phosphate receptors (M6PR) transport from endosomes to trans-Golgi network (TGN). TIP47 localizes in cytoplasm, endosome membrane as peripheral membrane protein towards cytoplasmic side, core of lipid bodies/ lipid droplet, in lipid sails and in the envelope, and it interacts with M6PR, IGF2R etc. via the cytoplasmic domain. As a cargo protein, TIP47 facilitates the delivery of M6PR from endosomes to TGN where it binds to cytoplasmic domains of cation-independent/-dependent M6PR and translocates to late endosomes by binding to Rab9 GTPase. Like other PAT family members, TIP47 associates with lipid droplets and influence insulin signaling as evidenced by combined knockout of ADRP /TIP47 leading to decreased insulin sensitivity. During HIV-1 infection, TIP47 acts as a cellular cofactor playing a part in Env incorporation, allowing the encounter and physical association between HIV-1 Gag and Env proteins during viral assembly process. TIP47 is identical to pregnancy-related placental tissue protein 17b (PP17b) and is overexpressed in cervical carcinoma patients wherein it is considered a serum tumor marker.
