Description
DAG1 Human Recombinant produced in E.Coli is a single, non-glycosylated, polypeptide chain (a.a 30-312) containing 293 amino acids including a 10 a.a N-terminal His tag. The total molecular mass is 31.87kDa (calculated).
Synonyms
Dystroglycan, Dystrophin-associated glycoprotein 1, DAG1, A3a, DAG, AGRNR, 156DAG, MDDGC7, MDDGC9.
Introduction
Dystroglycan 1 (DAG1) is a laminin binding component of the dystrophin-glycoprotein complex which provides a connection between the subsarcolemmal cytoskeleton and the extracellular matrix. The N-terminal domain of alpha-dystroglycan is secreted into the cerebrospinal fluid. The effect of DAG1 on the nervous system remains vague. The complete dystroglycan complex is expressed in a various tissues and has a role in processes such as laminin and basement membrane assembly, sarcolemmal stability, cell survival, peripheral nerve myelination, nodal structure, cell migration, and epithelial polarization. DAG1 is a candidate gene for the site of the mutation in autosomal recessive muscular dystrophies. The dramatic decrease of DAG1 in Duchenne muscular dystrophy leads to a loss of linkage between the sarcolemma and extracellular matrix, making muscle fibers more susceptible to necrosis.
Physical Appearance
Filtered White lyophilized (freeze-dried) powder.
Formulation
DAG1 filtered (0.4 µm) and lyophilized from 0.5mg/ml in 0.05M phosphate buffer and 0.075M NaCl, pH 7.4.
Stability
Store lyophilized protein at -20°C. Aliquot the product after reconstitution to avoid repeated freezing/thawing cycles. Reconstituted protein can be stored at 4°C for a limited period of time; it does not show any change after two weeks at 4°C.
