Biological background

DBN1 (protein: T-cell surface glycoprotein CD3 zeta chain) is a commonly studied target in molecular and cellular biology. Functional context (as provided): Drebrins might play some role in cell migration, extension of neuronal processes and plasticity of dendrites. Required for actin polymerization at immunological synapses (IS) and for CXCR4 recruitment to IS. . Reported cellular localization context: Cytoplasm . Cytoplasm, cell cortex . Cell junction . Cell projection . Cell projection, growth cone . In the absence of antigen, evenly distributed throughout subcortical regions of the T-cell membrane and cytoplasm. In the presence of antigen, distributes to the immunological synapse forming at the T-cell-APC contact area, where it localizes at the peripheral and distal supramolecular activation clusters (SMAC) (PubMed:20215400). Colocalized with DBN1, RUFY3 and F-actin at the transitional domain of the axonal growth cone (By similarity). . Tissue expression notes (as provided): Brain neurons. Also found in the heart, placenta, skeletal muscle, kidney and pancreas. Expressed in peripheral blood lymphocytes, including T-cells (at protein level). .

Research relevance and current trends

• Research context keywords from the source record include: ECM Proteins,Invasion/Microenvironment,Microfilaments,Neurodegenerative Disease,Neurology Process,Neuron Marker,Neuroscience,Signal Transduction.
• Current studies often focus on connecting target abundance/localization to pathway perturbations across models, tissues, and cell states.
• Quantitative and multiplexed assays (e.g., imaging + immunoblot panels) are commonly used to compare phenotypes across conditions and time-courses.

Common research applications

• Western blotting (WB): assess relative target abundance across samples, treatments, or time-points.
• Immunofluorescence/ICC (IF/ICC): visualize subcellular localization patterns and cell-to-cell heterogeneity.
• Immunoprecipitation (IP): enrich target complexes for downstream immunoblot or interaction analyses.

Workflow ideas (metafield): Validate DBN1 antibody specificity using KO/KD control samples (WB/IF/IHC as appropriate), Detect DBN1 expression by Western blot in cell or tissue lysates, Localize DBN1 by immunofluorescence/immunocytochemistry in cultured cells, Enrich DBN1 by immunoprecipitation from lysates for downstream analysis

Notes for experimental interpretation

• Consider isoforms and post-translational modifications (PTMs) that may shift apparent molecular weight or epitope accessibility.
• Apparent molecular weight may vary by sample type and processing (observed MW: 120 kDa; calculated MW: 71429 MW).
• Control concepts: include appropriate negative controls (e.g., isotype, KO/KD samples) and orthogonal validation when feasible.
