Leucine-rich glioma inactivated gene 1 (LGI1), also known as Epitempin-1 (EPT), is a member of a family of highly related proteins containing leucine-rich repeats (LRRs) regulating voltage-gated potassium channels assembled from KCNA1, KCNA4 and KCNAB1. LGI1 may play a role in the control of neuroblastoma cell survival and may play a role in other cancers. It is expressed in neural tissue, especially brain. Mutations in LGI1 have been associated with nearly half of autodominant lateral temporal epilepsy (ADTLE).
Specificity
This antibody recognizes the N-terminus of LGI1.
Immunogen
