Gene Information

human ... GSN(2934)

Immunogen

Synthetic peptide directed towards the C terminal region of human GSN

Application

Anti-GSN antibody produced in rabbit is suitable for western blotting at a concentration of 1μg/mL.

Biochem/physiol Actions

GSN gene encodes a 93,000-dalton actin-modulating protein localized in the cytoplasm of cells. It plays a pivotal role in regulating actin filament length as well as prevents monomer exchange by blocking or capping the "plus" ends of actin monomers and filaments. Defects in GSN gene leads to familial amyloidosis Finnish type (FAF).

Sequence

Synthetic peptide located within the following region: KPMIIYKGGTSREGGQTAPASTRLFQVRANSAGATRAVEVLPKAGALNSN

Physical form

Purified antibody supplied in 1x PBS buffer with 0.09% (w/v) sodium azide and 2% sucrose.

Gelsolin is representative of a class of actin-modulating proteins found in lower eukaryotes to mammals, which sever actin filaments. Gelsolin found in the cytoplasm of cells is functionally similar to a mammalian plasma protein of similar size, originally called ADF

Gelsolin is a widely distributed actin binding protein that regulates actin filament length. It exists in both an intracellular and an extracellular form that is derived from a single gene by alternative splicing. Both forms contain the six homologous domains

Dominantly inherited familial amyloidosis, Finnish type (FAF) is caused by the accumulation of a 71-amino acid amyloidogenic fragment of mutant gelsolin (GSN). FAF is common in Finland but is very rare elsewhere. In Finland and in two American families, the
