 PRODUCT SPECIFICATION - Plectin Rabbit Antibody
Name: Plectin Rabbit Antibody
PDF of Datasheet

Clone ID: E398P
Antibody Type: Rabbit Monoclonal IgG
Catalog#: 1399-1
Size: 100ul
Price: $ 250

Recommended Applications: WB, IHC, IP
Species Reactivity: Human, Mouse, Rat

Mol. Weight: 500 kDa
UniProt ID: Q15149

Alternative names: PLTN, PCN, Hemidesmosomal protein 1, HD1, Plectin-11

Description: Plectin, a 500-kDa intermediate filament binding protein, is localized to the cytoplasm and acts to both stabilize and give strength to cells via cross-linking (1). Plectin cross-links intermediate filaments to microtubules and microfilaments, and anchors intermediate filaments to the plasma and nuclear membranes (2,3). Plectin binds many proteins, including actin, vimentin, and Lamin B. Phosphorylation by PKA or PKC results in decreased binding to Lamin B, and phosphorylation by PKA enhances the plectin-vimentin interactions (4).

Specificity: A recombinant fragment comprising the C-terminal 220 amino acids of plectin was used as immunogen.

Recommended Dilutions:
WB: 1:5,000
IHC: 1:250
IP: 1:40
