Oncoproteins are produced from oncogenic gene expression as result of mutation of a normal gene into an onco gene, a gene which may have the potential to cause cancer.
Proto oncogenes are normal ones which carry the potential to be cancer forming ones and can be triggered through mutagenic processes, cell growth misregulation or an abnormal translocation of a chromosome
New research indicates that antibodies can target intracelluar oncoproteins. Most recently it was thought that oncoproteins like PRL-3 could not be accessed via antibody attack as antibodies were too big to relocate them selves into the cell via the cell membrane.

EAPP Antibody ; Mouse Anti-EAPP
Transcription activator that binds DNA cooperatively with dp proteins through the E2 recognition site, 5'-TTTC[CG]CGC-3' found in the promoter region of a number of genes whose products are involved in cell cycle regulation or in DNA replication. The DRTF1/E2F complex functions in the control of cell-cycle progression from G1 to S phase. E2F-1 binds preferentially RB1 protein, in a cell-cycle dependent manner. It can mediate both cell proliferation and p53-dependent apoptosis

HDAC3 Antibody ; Mouse Anti-HDAC3
Responsible for the deacetylation of lysine residues on the N-terminal part of the core histones (H2A, H2B, H3 and H4). Histone deacetylation gives a tag for epigenetic repression and plays an important role in transcriptional regulation, cell cycle progression and developmental events. Histone deacetylases act via the formation of large multiprotein complexes. Probably participates in the regulation of transcription through its binding to the zinc-finger transcription factor YY1; increases YY1 repression activity. Required to repress transcription of the POU1F1 transcription factor. Acts as a molecular chaperone for shuttling phosphorylated NR2C1 to PML bodies for sumoylation

MERTK Antibody- Mouse Anti-Mer Receptor Tyrosine Kinase
In vertebrates the photoreceptor cells are the basic sensory apparatus of the retina primarily converting photon energy absorbed from light into neuronal signals The photoreceptor proximal outer segments are synthesized daily by cell bodies and outer segment tips are removed with a circadian rhythm The shed outer segments are endocytosed by adjacent retinal pigment epithelial (RPE) cells and are recycled to photoreceptors The receptor tyrosine kinase MERTK protein is an approximately 120-122 kDa (994 amino acids) protein expressed in RPEs MERTK has a tyrosine kinase domain close to the C-terminal region and putative phosphorylation sites Mutation of MERTK in the Royal College of Surgeons (RCS) rat results in defective phagocytosis of photoreceptor outer segments by the retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) and retinal degeneration resulting in retinitis pigmentosa

OVCA1 Antibody- Rabbit Anti-OVCA1
Chromosome 17 is a hotspot for chromosomal aberrations in breast and ovarian cancer. Candidate oncogenes and tumor suppressors located on this chromosome include OVCA1 and OVCA2, p53, BRCA1, HER2/neu and others. OVCA1 and 2 map to a highly conserved region on human chromosome 17p13.3 that is deleted in 80% of ovarian cancers and shows frequent loss of heterozygosity in breast cancers . OVCA1 is induced by BRCA1 and is closely linked to p53, a well-known tumor suppressor gene. The close linkage of OVCA1 and p53 suggests that coordinated loss of the two genes may lead to ovarian, breast and other tumor types
