Gene Information
human ... PICALM(8301)
General description
The gene clathrin assembly lymphoid myeloid leukemia (CALM or PICALM) is mapped to human chromosome 11q14. PICALM transcripts are ubiquitously expressed.
Immunogen
Phosphatidylinositol-binding clathrin assembly protein recombinant protein epitope signature tag (PrEST)
Application
Anti-PICALM antibody produced in rabbit, a Prestige Antibody, is developed and validated by the Human Protein Atlas (HPA) project . Each antibody is tested by immunohistochemistry against hundreds of normal and disease tissues. These images can be viewed on the Human Protein Atlas (HPA) site by clicking on the Image Gallery link. The antibodies are also tested using immunofluorescence and western blotting. To view these protocols and other useful information about Prestige Antibodies and the HPA, visit sigma.com/prestige.
Biochem/physiol Actions
Clathrin assembly lymphoid myeloid leukemia (CALM or PICALM) works as an endocytosis adaptor. It acts along with clathrin, adaptor ptotein-2 and PI(4,5)P2 (phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate) in the initial stages of coated pit invagination at the membrane. It regulates size and maturation of clathrin coated vesicles. PICALM-AF10 (ALL1-fused gene from chromosome 10 protein) fusion protein is involved in t(10;11)(p13;q14) associated leukemogenesis. Polymorphism in PICALM is associated with Alzheimer′s disease and influences the episodic memory performance in old age.
Features and Benefits
Prestige Antibodies® are highly characterized and extensively validated antibodies with the added benefit of all available characterization data for each target being accessible via the Human Protein Atlas portal linked just below the product name at the top of this page. The uniqueness and low cross-reactivity of the Prestige Antibodies® to other proteins are due to a thorough selection of antigen regions, affinity purification, and stringent selection. Prestige antigen controls are available for every corresponding Prestige Antibody and can be found in the linkage section.
Every Prestige Antibody is tested in the following ways:
Every Prestige Antibody is tested in the following ways:
- IHC tissue array of 44 normal human tissues and 20 of the most common cancer type tissues.
- Protein array of 364 human recombinant protein fragments.

Neurofibrillary tangles (NFTs), a cardinal pathological feature of neurodegenerative disorders, such as Alzheimer's disease (AD) are primarily composed of hyper-phosphorylated tau protein. Recently, several other molecules, including flotillin-1, phosphatidylinositol-4,5-bisphosphate [PtdIns(4,5)P2] and cyclin-dependent kinase 5 (CDK5), have also been revealed as

PICALM, BIN1, CLU, and APOE are top candidate genes for Alzheimer's disease, and they influence episodic memory performance in old age. Physical activity, however, has been shown to protect against age-related decline and counteract genetic influences on cognition. The aims
