Spectrin Alpha Chain antibody
Spectrins are a family of filamentous cytoskeletal proteins that function as essential scaffold proteins that stabilize the plasma membrane and organize intracellular organelles. Spectrins are composed of alpha and beta dimers that associate to form tetramers linked in a head-to-head arrangement. The spectrin alpha chain is specifically expressed in non-erythrocytic cells. The encoded protein has been implicated in other cellular functions including DNA repair and cell cycle regulation. Mutations in the spectrin alpha chain are the cause of early infantile epileptic encephalopathy-5. Alternate splicing results in multiple transcript variants (provided by RefSeq, Sep 2010).
Mouse anti Human spectrin alpha chain antibody detects a band of 285 kDa. The antibody has been extensively validated for western blotting using whole cell lysates.
