Gene Information

human ... DST(667)

General description

DST gene encodes dystonin, a cytoskeletal linker protein. Dystonin proteins are present as several isoforms in neural and muscle cells. DST gene is located on the human chromosome 6p12.1. Dystonin protein encompasses plakin and spectrin domains.

Immunogen

dystonin recombinant protein epitope signature tag (PrEST)

Application

Anti-DST antibody produced in rabbit is suitable for human dystonin detection in live cell microscopy.

Biochem/physiol Actions

DST integrates microtubules, actin and intermediate filaments and is essential for cytoskeleton network in neuronal cells. A frame shift mutation in the DST gene affects sensory and autonomous nervous system, leading to hereditary sensory autonomic neuropathy type VI. The incidence of nonsense mutation in the DST gene is implicated in the skin disorder.

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:
  • 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.

Physical form

Solution in phosphate-buffered saline, pH 7.2, containing 40% glycerol and 0.02% sodium azide.
