Description

Introduction
Dematin is an actin-binding protein originally identified in the junctional complex of the erythrocyte plasma membrane, and is present in many nonerythroid cells. Dematin headpiece knockout mice display a spherical red cell phenotype and develop a compensated anemia. Dematin has two domains: a 315-residue, proline-rich ?ore?domain and a 68-residue carboxyl-terminal villin-type ?eadpiece?domain. Expression of full-length dematin in E. coli as a GST recombinant protein results in truncation within a proline, glutamic acid, serine, threonine rich region (PEST). Therefore, we designed a mutant construct that replaces the PEST sequence. The modified dematin has high actin binding activity as determined by actin sedimentation assays. Negative stain electron microscopy demonstrates that the modified dematin also exhibits actin bundling activity like that of native dematin. Circular dichroism (CD) and NMR spectral analysis, however, show little secondary structure in the modified dematin. The lack of secondary structure is also observed in native dematin purified from human red blood cells. 15N-HSQC NMR spectra of modified dematin indicate that the headpiece domain is fully folded whereas the core region is primarily unfolded. Our finding suggests that the core is natively unfolded and may serve as a scaffold to organize the components of the junctional complex.

PA001427-A0904: Dematin (Phospho-Ser403) Polyclonal Antibody

Rabbit Polyclonal Antibody.
Specificity/Sensitivity: Dematin (Phospho-Ser403) antibody detects endogenous levels of Dematin only when phosphorylated at serine 403.
Applications: WB: 1:500~1:1000 IHC: 1:50~1:100 ELISA: 1:5000.
Reactivity: Human, Mouse.
Immunogen: The antiserum was produced against synthesized phosphopeptide derived from human Dematin around the phosphorylation site of serine 403 (K-A-SP-L-F).
Purification: The antibody was affinity-purified from rabbit antiserum by affinity-chromatography using epitope-specific phosphopeptide. The antibody against non-phosphopeptide was removed by chromatography using non-phosphopeptide corresponding to the phosphorylation site.
Form of Antibody: Rabbit IgG in phosphate buffered saline (without Mg2+ and Ca2+), pH 7.4, 150 mM NaCl, 0.02% sodium azide and 50% glycerol.

Storage/Stability: Stable for 1 year at -20°C and 3 months at 4°C. For maximum recovery of the product, centrifuge the original vial after thawing and before removing the cap. Aliquot to avoid repeated freezing and thawing.
