Function
Keeps in an inactive conformation TGFBR1, the TGF-beta type I serine/threonine kinase receptor, preventing TGF-beta receptor activation in absence of ligand. Recruits SMAD7 to ACVR1B which prevents the association of SMAD2 and SMAD3 with the activin receptor complex, thereby blocking the activin signal. May modulate the RYR1 calcium channel activity. PPIases accelerate the folding of proteins. It catalyzes the cis-trans isomerization of proline imidic peptide bonds in oligopeptides.

- Activity summary
FKBP12 also known as FKBP-12 or FKBP12 protein is a small protein with a molecular weight of approximately 12 kDa. It belongs to the family of immunophilins and acts as a peptidyl-prolyl cis-trans isomerase (PPIase) facilitating the folding of proteins by catalyzing the isomerization of proline residues in polypeptides. The FKBP12 protein is expressed in various tissues throughout the body including the brain heart and skeletal muscles. It plays a mechanical role in binding certain macrolide antibiotics such as FK506 (tacrolimus) influencing their biological effects by altering protein conformation.
- Biological function summary
FKBP12 is significant in cellular mechanisms beyond protein folding. It interacts with and forms complexes with other proteins such as ryanodine receptors and transforming growth factor-beta (TGF-β) receptors impacting calcium signaling and cell growth. FKBP12's interaction with FK506 has been extensively studied because it forms a complex that inhibits calcineurin ultimately leading to immunosuppressive effects. This property of FKBP12 makes it important for modulating the immune response and has importance in transplant medicine.
- Pathways
FKBP12 is actively involved in calcium signaling and TGF-β signaling pathways. FKBP12 influences these pathways by binding to ryanodine receptors affecting calcium release from intracellular stores and also modulating the function of TGF-β receptors impacting cellular growth and proliferation processes. It is associated with proteins such as calcineurin and Smad proteins in these pathways maintaining cellular homeostasis and regulating immune and inflammatory responses.
- Associated diseases and disorders
FKBP12 plays a role in immunological and proliferative diseases. It is implicated in autoimmune disorders due to its interaction with FK506 leading to the suppression of unwanted immune responses. FKBP12 is also linked to cardiac hypertrophy as its modulation of calcium release through ryanodine receptors can affect heart muscle function. The protein interacts with calcineurin in these contexts contributing to pathological processes in these diseases. Researchers target FKBP12 with ELISA and other assays to investigate its involvement in these disorders and assess therapeutic interventions.

Western blot - Anti-FKBP12 antibody [EPR3888] - BSA and Azide free (ab240931)
Lane 1: Wild-type HAP1 whole cell lysate (20 μg)
Lane 2: FKBP12 knockout HAP1 whole cell lysate (20 μg)
Lane 3: SH-SY5Y whole cell lysate (20 μg)
Lane 4: Human brain whole cell lysate (20 μg)Lanes 1 - 4: Merged signal (red and green). Green - Anti-FKBP12 antibody [EPR3888] ab92459 observed at 12 kDa. Red - loading control, Anti-GAPDH antibody [mAbcam 9484] - Loading Control ab9484, observed at 37 kDa.
Anti-FKBP12 antibody [EPR3888] ab92459 was shown to specifically react with FKBP12 in wild-type HAP1 cells as signal was lost in FKBP12 knockout cells. Wild-type and FKBP12 knockout samples were subjected to SDS-PAGE. Anti-FKBP12 antibody [EPR3888] ab92459 and Anti-GAPDH antibody [mAbcam 9484] - Loading Control ab9484 (Mouse anti-GAPDH loading control) were incubated overnight at 4°C at 1/10000 dilution and 1/20000 dilution respectively. Blots were developed with Goat anti-Rabbit IgG H&L (IRDye® 800CW) preabsorbed Goat anti-Rabbit IgG H&L (IRDye® 800CW) preadsorbed ab216773 and Goat anti-Mouse IgG H&L (IRDye® 680RD) preabsorbed Goat anti-Mouse IgG H&L (IRDye® 680RD) preadsorbed ab216776 secondary antibodies at 1/20000 dilution for 1 hour at room temperature before imaging.
This data was developed using the same antibody clone in a different buffer formulation containing BSA, glycerol, sodium azide, tris glycine and tissue culture supernatant (Anti-FKBP12 antibody [EPR3888] ab92459).
