General description

Megakaryoblastic Leukemia-1 (MKL1, MAL, MRTF-A, BSAC) is a MRTF family transcription factor with evolutionary conserved domains required for actin-binding, homo- and heterodimerization, high-order chromatin organization and transcriptional activation. MKL1 regulates a wide range of cell processes including epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT); megakaryocytic differentiation and migration; neuronal network remodeling; cellular motile functions and muscle cell differentiation including cardiovascular development. It is a component of the Rho/megakaryoblastic leukemia 1 (MKL1) signaling pathway.

Specificity

Anti-MKL1 polyclonal antibody reacts with bovine, chicken, mouse, human, and rat megakaryoblastic leukemia-1 proteins.

Immunogen

Synthetic peptide directed towards the C terminal of human MKL1

Application

Anti-MKL1 polyclonal antibody is used to tag megakaryoblastic leukemia-1 for detection and quantitation by Western blotting and in plasma by immunohistochemical (IHC) techniques. It is used as a probe to determine the roles of megakaryoblastic leukemia-1 in the Rho/megakaryoblastic leukemia 1 (MKL1) signaling pathway and a variety of cell processes such as cell mobilization and the epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT).

Biochem/physiol Actions

MKL1 transduces cytoskeletal signals and induces smooth muscle cell differentiation from undifferentiated embryonic stem cells

Sequence

Synthetic peptide located within the following region: QPLSQPGFPAPGPPAQMDLEHPPQPPFATPTSLLKKEPPGYEETVTQQPK

Physical form

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

Myopalladin (MYPN) is a striated muscle-specific immunoglobulin domain-containing protein located in the sarcomeric Z-line and I-band. MYPN gene mutations are causative for dilated (DCM), hypertrophic, and restrictive cardiomyopathy. In a yeast two-hybrid screening, MYPN was found to bind to titin
