Target data

Function

Plus-end tracking protein (+TIP) that binds to the plus-end of microtubules and regulates the dynamics of the microtubule cytoskeleton (PubMed:19255245, PubMed:28814570). Promotes microtubule growth (PubMed:19255245, PubMed:28814570). May be involved in spindle function by stabilizing microtubules and anchoring them at centrosomes (PubMed:19255245, PubMed:28814570). Also acts as a regulator of minus-end microtubule organization: interacts with the complex formed by AKAP9 and PDE4DIP, leading to recruit CAMSAP2 to the Golgi apparatus, thereby tethering non-centrosomal minus-end microtubules to the Golgi, an important step for polarized cell movement (PubMed:28814570). Promotes elongation of CAMSAP2-decorated microtubule stretches on the minus-end of microtubules (PubMed:28814570).

Notes

ab246357 is the carrier-free version of Anti-EB3 antibody [EPR11421(B)] ab157217.

Our RabMAb® technology is a patented hybridoma-based technology for making rabbit monoclonal antibodies. For details on our patents, please refer to RabMAb® patents.

This product is a recombinant monoclonal antibody, which offers several advantages including:

  • - High batch-to-batch consistency and reproducibility
  • - Improved sensitivity and specificity
  • - Long-term security of supply
  • - Animal-free batch production

For more information, read more on recombinant antibodies.

Our carrier-free antibodies are typically supplied in a PBS-only formulation, purified and free of BSA, sodium azide and glycerol. The carrier-free buffer and high concentration allow for increased conjugation efficiency.

This conjugation-ready format is designed for use with fluorochromes, metal isotopes, oligonucleotides, and enzymes, which makes them ideal for antibody labelling, functional and cell-based assays, flow-based assays (e.g. mass cytometry) and Multiplex Imaging applications.

Use our conjugation kits for antibody conjugates that are ready-to-use in as little as 20 minutes with 1 minute hands-on-time and 100% antibody recovery: available for fluorescent dyes, HRP, biotin and gold.

This product is compatible with the Maxpar® Antibody Labeling Kit from Fluidigm, without the need for antibody preparation. Maxpar® is a trademark of Fluidigm Canada Inc.

Activity summary

EB3 also known as End-binding protein 3 is a microtubule-associated protein with a molecular weight of approximately 32 kDa. This protein belongs to the EB family of proteins which includes EB1 and EB2. EB3 facilitates microtubule dynamics by binding to the plus ends of microtubules and playing a role in their stabilization and elongation. Researchers have observed its expression in various tissues with a notable presence in neuronal tissues where it supports complex cellular activities.

Biological function summary

EB3 interacts with other end-binding proteins as part of the plus-end tracking complex often abbreviated as +TIPs. This complex modulates the behavior of microtubules essential for processes like mitosis and cell migration. EB3’s interaction within this complex stabilizes microtubules at the growing edge important for neuronal development and synaptic function. Additionally EB3 helps in intracellular signaling through direct interaction with other microtubule-associated proteins thereby contributing to cellular structural integrity.

Pathways

EB3 plays an integral role in the Wnt signaling pathway and the microtubule polymerization regulation pathway. These pathways are important for normal cell division and signaling. In the Wnt signaling pathway EB3 interacts with proteins like APC essential for the pathway’s downstream signaling events that influence cell polarity and differentiation. Moreover its involvement in the polymerization regulation pathway helps in facilitating effective cargo transport along microtubules.

Associated diseases and disorders

EB3 has been linked to neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer’s disease and certain types of cancer. Abnormalities in EB3 expression and function can lead to disruptions in microtubule stability contributing to the pathogenesis of these conditions. EB3's connection with tau protein further highlights its role in Alzheimer’s where tau aggregation negatively affects microtubule function. In cancer alterations in EB3 expression influence tumor progression by impacting cell motility and invasiveness with implications for metastasis development.
