Product Overview
This rabbit polyclonal antibody recognizes protein diaphanous homolog 1 (gene DIAPH1) in human and monkey samples and is validated for Western blot, ICC/IF, flow cytometry and ELISA. The predicted molecular weight is 141.3 kDa, and the supplier reports an observed band at about 150 kDa.
DIAPH1 (mDia1) is a formin that nucleates and elongates unbranched actin filaments, building structures such as stress fibers. It is activated by RhoA and also influences microtubule stability and SRF-dependent transcription. DIAPH1 is studied in cytoskeletal organization, cell migration, cytokinesis and hearing loss.

Immunogen
Recombinant human DIAPH1 fragment (Asp1039–Gln1153), expressed in E. coli.
Reactivity Notes
The supplier lists reactivity with human and monkey. UniProt places protein diaphanous homolog 1 in the cell membrane, cell projection, cytoplasm and nucleus. Tissue expression noted by UniProt (human): Expressed in brain, heart, placenta, lung, kidney, pancreas, liver, skeletal muscle and cochlea. The samples tested by the supplier (listed above) are a practical starting point for positive controls.

Customization & Add-ons: Can’t find the antibody you need—or require a custom format for your assay? We can help you source the best match or support custom antibody solutions for diverse research needs, including species and isotype selection, conjugations and labeling (e.g., HRP/AP, biotin, fluorophores), purification grade options (Protein A/G, affinity purified), formulation preferences (buffer selection, carrier-free, glycerol-free), custom concentrations and aliquoting, low-endotoxin options for cell-based work, and application-focused QC/validation support (project dependent).
