Highest antigen sequence indentity to the following orthologs: Mouse (38%), Rat (38%).
This recombinant protein control fragment may be used for blocking experiments with the corresponding antibody, PA5-66869. In IHC/ICC and WB experiments, we recommend a 100x molar excess of the protein fragment control based on the concentration and the molecular weight. Pre-incubate the antibody-protein control fragment mixture for 30 min at room temperature.
Cytoskeletal linker protein that connects to intermediate filaments and controls their reorganization in response to stress (PubMed:15671067, PubMed:27206504, PubMed:23398049). In response to mechanical stress like wound healing, is associated with the machinery for cellular motility by slowing down keratinocyte migration and proliferation and accelerating keratin bundling in proliferating keratinocytes thus contributing to tissue architecture (PubMed:27206504, PubMed:23398049). However in wound healing in corneal epithelium also positively regulates cell differentiation and proliferation and negatively regulates migration thereby controlling corneal epithelium morphogenesis and integrity. In response to cellular stress, plays a role in keratin filament reorganization, probably by protecting keratin filaments against disruption. During liver and pancreas injuries, plays a protective role by chaperoning disease-induced intermediate filament reorganization.
