This affinity-purified antibody has been tested for use in ELISA, western blotting and possibly in immunoprecipitation as well. Specific conditions for reactivity should be optimized by the end user. By western blot a band approximately 100 kDa in size corresponding to Myosin 1G protein is expected in the appropriate cell lysate or extract.

MYO1G

This antibody is suitable for Cancer, Immunology and Nuclear Signaling research. In general, myosins are protein complexes consisting of one or more myosin heavy chains, associated light chains and other proteins. Myosins function as molecular motors and use the energy of ATP hydrolysis to move actin filaments or to move vesicles or other cargo on fixed actin filaments. Myosins have magnesium-ATPase activity and bind actin. Myosins can be divided into classes that are distinguished based on sequence features of the motor, or head domain, but also have distinct tail regions that are believed to bind specific cargoes. Unconventional myosins exist. Myosin 1G is an unconventional myosin that is restricted to hematopoietic cells. Unconventional myosins are also critical for motility in amoeba and a mammalian paralog (Myo1C) is critical as a glucose transporter that recycles glucose in response to insulin.

Unconventional myosin required during immune response for detection of rare antigen-presenting cells by regulating T- cell migration. Unconventional myosins are actin-based motor molecules with ATPase activity and serve in intracellular movements. Acts as a regulator of T-cell migration by generating membrane tension, enforcing cell-intrinsic meandering search, thereby enhancing detection of rare antigens during lymph-node surveillance, enabling pathogen eradication. Also required in B- cells, where it regulates different membrane/cytoskeleton- dependent processes. Involved in Fc-gamma receptor (Fc-gamma-R) phagocytosis.
