Anti-PFN1 Chemische Eigenschaften,Einsatz,Produktion Methoden
Verwenden
Anti-Profilin 1 (N-terminal) antibody produced in rabbit has been used in immunoblotting and immunofluorescence.
Allgemeine Beschreibung
Anti-Profilin 1 (N-terminal) is developed in rabbit using as immunogen a synthetic peptide corresponding to amino acid residues of human profilin 1, conjugated to keyhole limpet hemocyanin (KLH). Profilin 1 is a ubiquitous actin monomer-binding protein. Profilin 1 is highly expressed throughout development and adulthood in most of the tissues including brain.
Biochem/physiol Actions
Profilin 1 is involved in actin polymerization in response to extracellular signals. Profilins were shown to be important for normal cell proliferation, differentiation and motility. Deletion of profilin 1 gene leads to an embryonic lethal phenotype. Profilin 1 is a potent regulator of actin filament dynamics. Although profilin 1 prevents spontaneous actin polymerization by complexing with unpolymerized actin in vivo, actin-profilin complexes can be added to free barbed ends, thereby stimulating actin polymerization. Profilin 1 was suggested to act as a tumor suppressor protein based on its reduced expression in several types of invasive cancers and its ability to suppress tumorigenicity when over-expressed in breast cancer cells. Deletion of profilin 1 is associated with Miller-Dieker syndrome.
