Anti-Dab-1 (C-terminal) from rabbit, approx. 1 mg/mL, affinity isolated antibody, buffered aqueous solution

Not available outside of the UK & Ireland.

Application

Anti-Dab-1 (C-terminal) was used at a working dilution of 1:2000 to probe the protein sample extracted from brain tissue of mice by western blotting in a study.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Dab1 plays a key role during brain development by controlling neuronal positioning as well as modulation of long-term potentiation (LTP) in the adult brain. Tyrosine phosphorylation of Dab1 is triggered by the binding of reelin to the lipoprotein receptors Apolipoprotein E receptor 2 (ApoER2) and the very low density lipoprotein receptor (VLDLR), thus initiating a signaling cascade that includes the Src-family kinases and Akt.

General description

Disabled-1 is an intracellular adaptor protein that belongs to the Reelin signaling pathway. The amino terminus of Dab1 contains a phosphotyrosine-binding (PTB) domain. The domain interacts with NPXY sequences within the cytoplasmic regions of several membrane-bound proteins including lipoprotein receptors and amyloid precursor protein (APP) family.
