Biological background
Biological context: Probably involved in connections of major cytoskeletal structures to the plasma membrane. High molecular weight cytoskeletal protein concentrated at regions of cell-substratum contact and, in lymphocytes, at cell-cell contacts (By similarity).
Expression and localization notes: cellular localization: Cell projection, ruffle membrane; Peripheral membrane protein; Cytoplasmic side. Cytoplasm, cytoskeleton. Cell surface., tissue context: Placenta and skin. Predominantly expressed in mammary gland tissue..
Common research applications
- Western blotting (WB): Compare TLN1 levels across samples and conditions using appropriate loading and biological controls.
- Immunohistochemistry (IHC): Evaluate spatial distribution of TLN1 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 TLN1-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: Talin-1 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the TLN1 gene. This gene encodes a cytoskeletal protein that is concentrated in areas of cell-substratum and cell-cell contacts. The encoded protein plays a significant role in the assembly of actin filaments and in spreading and migration of various cell types, including fibroblasts and osteoclasts. It codistributes with integrins in the cell surface membrane in order to assist in the attachment of adherent cells to extracellular matrices and of lymphocytes to other cells. The N-terminus of this protein contains elements for localization to cell-extracellular matrix junctions. The C-terminus contains binding sites for proteins such as beta-1-integrin, actin, and vinculin.
- Cross reactivity: No cross-reactivity with other proteins.
- Cellular localization: Cell projection, ruffle membrane; Peripheral membrane protein; Cytoplasmic side. Cytoplasm, cytoskeleton. Cell surface.
- Tissue details: Placenta and skin. Predominantly expressed in mammary gland tissue.
- Research category: Cytoskeleton,Cytoskeleton/ECM,Microfilaments,Signal Transduction
