MICALL1 belongs to the MICAL family of flavoprotein monooxygenases and adaptors that control trafficking of surface receptors and junctional complexes. Unlike enzymatically active MICALs, MICALL1 acts primarily as a scaffold, coordinating interactions between small GTPases and cytoskeletal components. The MICALL1 antibody is widely used to study vesicular trafficking, recycling endosomes, and cellular polarity.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eMICALL1 is encoded by the MICALL1 gene located on human chromosome 22q13.1. The protein is approximately 94 kilodaltons and includes a calponin homology (CH) domain, a LIM domain, and multiple coiled-coil regions that mediate binding to Rab GTPases and the EHD family of endocytic regulators. MICALL1 localizes to tubular recycling endosomes, where it coordinates membrane curvature and receptor sorting.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe MICALL1 antibody detects a 94 kilodalton protein by western blot and shows punctate cytoplasmic staining in immunofluorescence. MICALL1 interacts with Rab8, Rab11, and EHD1, forming a complex that facilitates recycling of receptors such as transferrin and integrins to the plasma membrane. It also binds to actin regulatory proteins, linking vesicle trafficking to cytoskeletal rearrangements and cell morphology maintenance.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDisruption of MICALL1 expression impairs membrane recycling and causes accumulation of endosomal tubules. Mutations in MICALL1 are associated with autosomal recessive neurodevelopmental disorders characterized by ataxia and delayed myelination. In epithelial cells, MICALL1 participates in maintaining tight junction integrity and apical-basal polarity, processes essential for tissue organization.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBecause of its central role in coordinating membrane transport, MICALL1 contributes to diverse biological pathways, from nutrient uptake to synaptic vesicle recycling.\u003c\/div\u003e\u003ch2\u003eResearch relevance and current trends\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eConnecting protein-level changes to phenotype using orthogonal readouts (genetic perturbation, transcriptomics, imaging).\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eConsidering isoforms and post-translational regulation when interpreting protein-level changes.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eComparing results across species and model systems with matched controls.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eCommon research applications\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWestern blotting:\u003c\/strong\u003e compare relative abundance and activation-state changes across conditions.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eImmunohistochemistry:\u003c\/strong\u003e map target signal in tissue context and compare regions\/phenotypes.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlow cytometry:\u003c\/strong\u003e quantify target-positive populations and signal shifts at single-cell resolution.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eELISA:\u003c\/strong\u003e support antibody-based quantification in assay formats where applicable.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eInterpret changes in signal alongside appropriate controls and, when relevant, in parallel with total-protein or pathway readouts.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eNotes for experimental interpretation\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSignal can reflect expression level, isoform composition, and post-translational state; interpret results in the context of your model system and stimuli.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSpecies differences and sample matrices can influence epitope recognition; prioritize matched controls and orthogonal confirmation when feasible.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAntibody notes:\u003c\/strong\u003e Polyclonal antibodies recognize multiple epitopes, which can broaden the epitope footprint and may increase sensitivity in some contexts.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c!-- Sources (internal): - UniProt search — UniProt — https:\/\/www.uniprot.org\/uniprotkb?query=MICALL1 - NCBI Gene search — NCBI — https:\/\/www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/gene\/?term=MICALL1 - Ensembl search — Ensembl — https:\/\/www.ensembl.org\/Multi\/Search\/Results?q=MICALL1 - Human Protein Atlas search — HPA — https:\/\/www.proteinatlas.org\/search\/MICALL1 - PubMed (review) — NLM — https:\/\/pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/?term=MICALL1+review --\u003e","brand":"NSJ Bioreagents","offers":[{"title":"Adding 0.2 ml of distilled water will yield a concentration of 500 ug\/ml \/ 100 ug","offer_id":53047293116781,"sku":"FY12556","price":449.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0949\/7424\/7277\/files\/get_image_609c57bf-f486-4351-b5b0-0eec97ce815e.jpg?v=1772019314","url":"https:\/\/www.ebiohippo.com\/products\/micall1-antibody-mical-like-1-bha17135459","provider":"BioHippo","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
