Anti-LCP1 antibody produced in rabbit，100UL，HPA019493-100UL，Sigma

General description

LCP1 (Lymphocyte cytosolic protein 1) is an actin-binding protein belonging to a large family of actin filament cross-linking proteins. It was firstly identified as an isoform of intestinal brush-border fimbrin. It consists of a calmodulin-like headpiece domain at the N-terminal end, which is equipped with two helix-loop-helix EF-hand Ca²⁺ binding motifs, followed by two independent actin-binding domains (ABDs) within the same region. It is localized to actin-rich membrane structures.

Immunogen

Plastin-2 recombinant protein epitope signature tag (PrEST)

Application

Anti-LCP1 antibody produced in rabbit, a Prestige Antibody, is developed and validated by the Human Protein Atlas (HPA) project . Each antibody is tested by immunohistochemistry against hundreds of normal and disease tissues. These images can be viewed on the Human Protein Atlas (HPA) site by clicking on the Image Gallery link. The antibodies are also tested using immunofluorescence and western blotting. To view these protocols and other useful information about Prestige Antibodies and the HPA, visit sigma.com/prestige.

Biochem/physiol Actions

LCP1 (Lymphocyte cytosolic protein 1) is majorly involved in the actin cytoskeleton assembly through the cross-linking activities. In addition, it is also associated with several activities such as locomotion, adhesion and immune defence, cell-adhesions, and the phagocytosis. It is phosphorylated at the serine residue positions during cytoskeleton organization to control F-actin-binding properties. Expression of LCP1 has been reported in several types of malignant human cells promoting tumor metastasis. It functions as a malignant transformation-associated protein.

Features and Benefits

Prestige Antibodies^® are highly characterized and extensively validated antibodies with the added benefit of all available characterization data for each target being accessible via the Human Protein Atlas portal linked just below the product name at the top of this page. The uniqueness and low cross-reactivity of the Prestige Antibodies^® to other proteins are due to a thorough selection of antigen regions, affinity purification, and stringent selection. Prestige antigen controls are available for every corresponding Prestige Antibody and can be found in the linkage section.

Every Prestige Antibody is tested in the following ways:

• IHC tissue array of 44 normal human tissues and 20 of the most common cancer type tissues.
• Protein array of 364 human recombinant protein fragments.

Physical form

Solution in phosphate-buffered saline, pH 7.2, containing 40% glycerol and 0.02% sodium azide
