indirect immunofluorescence: 1:10,000-1:20,000 using HEK-293T cells overexpressing human dystrobrevin-a variant 6 western blot: 1:5,000-1:10,000 using lysates of HEK-293T cells overexpressing human dystrobrevin-a variant 6
Dystrobrevin-α (α-DB or DTNA) belongs to the dystrobrevin (DB) subfamily of the dystrophin-related-protein family.α-DB is a component of the dystrophin-glycoprotein complex (DGC) that is located at the muscle sarcolemma and forms a transmembrane link between the cytoskeleton and the basal lamina. The DB family includes two isoforms α- and β-DB encoded by the different genes. α-DB is also abundantly expressed in developing neurons and in the adult central nervous system (CNS). The DTNA gene is located on the human chromosome at 18q12.1.
特異性
Anti-Dystrobrevin-α specifically recognizes human dystrobrevin-α.
免疫原
synthetic peptide corresponding to a sequence at the C-terminal region of human dystrobrevin-a (DTNA), conjugated to KLH
アプリケーション
Anti-Dystrobrevin-α antibody produced in rabbit may be used in immunoblotting and immunofluorescence.
生物化学的／生理学的作用
Dystrobrevin- α (α -DB) is involved in the formation and stability of synapses and the clustering of nicotinic acetylcholine receptors. Mutations in the DTNA gene are associated with congenital heart defects. Dystrobrevin is markedly reduced or absent in the sarcolemma of patients with Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD).
物理的形状
solution in 0.01 M phosphate buffered saline, pH 7.4, containing 15 mM sodium azide
保管および安定性
For continuous use, store at 2-8 °C for up to one month. For extended storage, freeze in working aliquots. Repeated freezing and thawing, or storage in “frost-free” freezers,is not recommended. If slight turbidity occurs upon prolonged storage, clarify the solution by centrifugation before use. Working dilutions should be discarded if not used within 12 hours.

The dystrophin glycoprotein complex (DGC) is a multimeric protein assembly associated with either the X-linked cytoskeletal protein dystrophin or its autosomal homologue utrophin. In striated muscle cells, the DGC links the extracellular matrix to the actin cytoskeleton and mediates three
