• Immunogen: Recombinant protein containing Kindlin (residues 216-677) (Uniprot: Q9BQL6)
• Localization: Cytoplasm
• Specificity: Kindlin-1 (also known as KIND1, KINDLERIN, UNC112-RELATED PROTEIN 1 (URP1) is an important component of cell-extracellular matrix adhesion. Kindlin-1 is involved in cell adhesion, possibly via its interaction with integrins and may mediate TGF-beta 1 signaling during tumor progression. Kindlin-1 has been shown to be significantly upregulated in lung and colon carcinomas. Mutations in the kindlin-1 gene, FERMT1, causes Kindler syndrome. Kindler syndrome is an autosomal recessive disorder characterized by neonatal blistering, sun sensitivity, atrophy, abnormal pigmentation and fragility of the skin. We have developed monoclonal anti-kidlin-1 antibodies. This monoclonal antibody recognizes kindlin-1 in multiple assays including Western blotting, immunoprecipitation, immunohistochemical and immunofluorescent staining.
• Isotype: IgG2a Lambda
• Clonality: Monoclonal
• Host: Mouse
• Gene: FERMT1
• Purity: Protein A or G purified

Applications/Dilutions

• Dilutions:
  • Immunohistochemistry-Paraffin 1-2 ug/ml
  • Immunoprecipitation 1-2 ug per 100-500 ug of protein 1ml of lysate
  • Western Blot 1-2 ug/ml
• Application Notes: Immunohistochemistry Formalin-fixed: 1-2ug/ml for 30 minutes at RT. Staining of formalin-fixed tissues requires heating tissue sections in 10mM Tris with 1mM EDTA, pH 9.0, for 45 min at 95C followed by cooling at RT for 20 minutes. Optimal dilution for a specific application should be determined.
• Theoretical MW: 77 kDa.
  Disclaimer note: The observed molecular weight of the protein may vary from the listed predicted molecular weight due to post translational modifications, post translation cleavages, relative charges, and other experimental factors.

Background

Due to a concerted effort to identify biomarkers for lung and colon carcinomas by genome-wide transcriptional profiling, the identification and cloning of one such gene as well as two additional closely related genes was achieved. Due to the strong sequence homology to the C. elegans UNC-112 a novel gene gene was named URP1, for UNC-112 related protein. Another novel related gene, URP2 and the previously discovered MIG-2 gene was also identified. Transcriptional analysis shows that only URP1 is significantly differentially regulated, being over-expressed in 70% of the colon carcinomas and 60% of the lung carcinomas tested. Quantification of URP1 expression by qRT-PCR showed up-regulation of the gene by 60-fold in lung tumors and up to nearly 6-fold in colon tumors. Northern blot analysis of URP1 indicates that normal expression is restricted to neuromuscular tissues. In contrast, the expression of URP2 appears to be confined primarily to tissues of the immune system. URP1 has the potential to be one of the most important prognostic and diagnostic markers of colon or lung cancer.
