Product Overview
This rabbit polyclonal antibody recognizes four and a half LIM domains protein 1 (gene FHL1) in human, mouse and rat samples and is validated for Western blot and ELISA. The predicted molecular weight is 36.3 kDa, and the supplier reports an observed band at about 36 kDa.
Four and a half LIM domains protein 1 (FHL1) is a LIM-domain protein highly expressed in skeletal and heart muscle. It is thought to act as a scaffold that links structural and signaling proteins and is involved in muscle development and hypertrophy. Mutations in FHL1 cause several X-linked myopathies, so it is studied in muscle biology.

Validated Applications
| Western blot | 0.25–0.5 µg/mL (Mouse, Rat) |
|---|---|
| ELISA | 0.1–0.5 µg/mL |
Samples with a confirmed band (WB): rat heart tissue, mouse heart tissue.
Recommended loading (WB): 20–40 µg of total protein per lane.
Conditions in the example images (WB): 5–20% gradient SDS-PAGE under reducing conditions, 30 µg lysate per lane, transfer to nitrocellulose membrane, blocking in 5% non-fat milk, primary antibody at 0.5 µg/mL overnight at 4 °C, HRP-conjugated secondary antibody at 1:5000, ECL detection.
Immunogen
Recombinant human FHL1 fragment (Lys133–Gln179), expressed in E. coli.
Reactivity Notes
The supplier lists reactivity with human, mouse and rat. Tissue expression noted by UniProt (human): Isoform 1 is highly expressed in skeletal muscle and to a lesser extent in heart, placenta, ovary, prostate, testis, small intestine, colon and spleen. The samples tested by the supplier (listed above) are a practical starting point for positive controls.
