Villin 1 Antibody (VIL1/1314) [Alexa Fluor™ Plus 594] Summary

• Immunogen: Recombinant human Villin 1 fragment (around aa179-311) (exact sequence is proprietary) (Uniprot: P09327)
• Localization: Cytoplasmic & Cell Surface
• Marker: GI-Mucosal & Urogenital Brush Border Marker
• Specificity: Recognizes a protein of 95kDa, which is identified as villin. It is a major constituent in the microvilli, which compose the brush border of epithelial cells forming absorptive surfaces of the intestinal and renal proximal tubular epithelia. Anti-Villin labels the brush border area in the gastrointestinal mucosal epithelium and urogenital tract. Among neoplasms, villin is predominantly expressed in tumors of colorectal origin. Antibody to villin is useful in identifying malignant cells from primary and metastatic colorectal carcinomas. This antibody also labels Merkel cells of the skin.

Background

Villin 1 encodes a member of a family of calcium-regulated actin-binding proteins. This protein represents a dominant part of the brush border cytoskeleton which functions in the capping, severing, and bundling of actin filaments. Two mRNAs of 2.7 kb and 3.5 kb have been observed; they result from utilization of alternate poly-adenylation signals present in the terminal exon. [provided by RefSeq]
