Vendor description (summary): Boster Bio Anti-DIAPH1 Antibody Picoband® catalog # A02308-3.
Biological background
Biological context: Receptor for corticotropin (ACTH). This receptor is mediated by G proteins (G (s)) which activate adenylate cyclase (cAMP). .
Expression and localization notes: cellular localization: Cell membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein., tissue context: Melanocytes and corticoadrenal tissue..
Common research applications
- Western blotting (WB): Compare DIAPH1 levels across samples and conditions using appropriate loading and biological controls.
- Immunohistochemistry (IHC): Evaluate spatial distribution of DIAPH1 in tissue sections, considering fixation and antigen retrieval effects.
- Immunofluorescence / ICC: Assess subcellular localization patterns and co-localization with compartment markers in cultured cells.
- Flow cytometry: Quantify DIAPH1-positive populations in single-cell suspensions with appropriate gating and controls.
- ELISA: Use antibody-based detection formats to assess antigen presence or binding in plate-based assays.
Notes for experimental interpretation
- Account for isoforms, post-translational modifications, and sample-specific processing that can shift apparent molecular weight or epitope accessibility.
- Use positive/negative biological controls where possible (e.g., known-expressing cells/tissues, knockdown/knockout models) and include appropriate secondary-only/isotype controls for imaging workflows.
Additional product notes (from provided fields)
- Background: Protein diaphanous homolog 1 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the DIAPH1 gene. This gene is a homolog of the Drosophila diaphanous gene, and has been linked to autosomal dominant, fully penetrant, nonsyndromic sensorineural progressive low-frequency hearing loss. Actin polymerization involves proteins known to interact with diaphanous protein in Drosophila and mouse. It has therefore been speculated that this gene may have a role in the regulation of actin polymerization in hair cells of the inner ear. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding distinct isoforms have been found for this gene.
- Cross reactivity: No cross-reactivity with other proteins.
- Cellular localization: Cell membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein.
- Tissue details: Melanocytes and corticoadrenal tissue.
