Gene Information

human ... GSN(2934)

General description

Gelsolin (GSN) gene codes for gelsolin, a calcium-regulated actin regulatory protein. The GSN gene is mapped on human chromosome 9q33.2.

Immunogen

GSN (AAH26033, 673 a.a. ~ 782 a.a) partial recombinant protein with GST tag. MW of the GST tag alone is 26 KDa.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Gelsolin (GSN) protein plays a key role in inflammation, cell movement, apoptosis, and cancer progression. It can prevent the fibrillization of β-amyloid protein (Aβ) and defibrillate its produced fibrils. Mutations of the GSN gene can result in hereditary amyloidosis (HA). The deposition of amyloid fibrils formed from the gelsolin protein in many organs and tissues is characterized by familial amyloidosis, Finnish type (FAF), or AGel amyloidosis (AGel).

Physical form

Solution in phosphate buffered saline, pH 7.4

In the disease familial amyloidosis, Finnish type (FAF), also known as AGel amyloidosis (AGel), the mechanism by which point mutations in the calcium-regulated actin-severing protein gelsolin lead to furin cleavage is not understood in the intact protein. Here, we provide

Amyloid protein deposition is a common mechanism of hereditary amyloidosis (HA) and Alzheimer's disease (AD). Mutations of gelsolin (GSN), cystatin C (CST3), transthyretin (TTR), and integral membrane protein 2B (ITM2B) genes can lead to HA. But the relationship is unclear
