|
| Background Information | Myc-Tag is a short synthetic peptide sequence derived from C-terminal region of human c-myc that is used as an epitope tag. The Myc tag can be cloned either upstream or downstream of the target gene, resulting in a fusion protein that allows efficient purification, detection, and localization of target proteins. The relatively small size of this tag vs. other commonly used tags such as GST (30 kDa) makes it less likely to interfere with target protein structure or function. The myc epitope tag is widely used to detect expression of recombinant proteins in bacterial, yeast, insect, and mammalian systems. |

| Entrez Gene Number |
|
| Entrez Gene Summary | The protein encoded by this gene is a multifunctional, nuclear phosphoprotein that plays a role in cell cycle progression, apoptosis and cellular transformation. It functions as a transcription factor that regulates transcription of specific target genes. Mutations, overexpression, rearrangement and translocation of this gene have been associated with a variety of hematopoietic tumors, leukemias and lymphomas, including Burkitt lymphoma. There is evidence to show that alternative translation initiations from an upstream, in-frame non-AUG (CUG) and a downstream AUG start site result in the production of two isoforms with distinct N-termini. The synthesis of non-AUG initiated protein is suppressed in Burkitts lymphomas, suggesting its importance in the normal function of this gene. |
