Specifications

Product Data

• Applications: ELISA, IHC
• Recommended Dilution: Peptide ELISA: Detection Limit: 1/64000.
  Western Blot: Preliminary experiments gave bands at approx 75kDa and 22kDa in Mouse Eye lysates after 0.05µg/ml antibody staining. Please note that currently we cannot find an explanation in the literature for the bands we observe given the calculated size of 57.4kDa according to NP_001070650.1 and 55.1kDa according to NP_036550.1.
  Both detected bands were successfully blocked by incubation with the immunizing peptide (and BLAST results with the immunizing peptide sequence did not identify any other proteins to explain the additional bands).
  Immunohistochemistry: This product was successfully used on Sections of Mouse cochlea as descibed in Reference 1.
• Reactivities: Canine, Human, Mouse, Rat

• Background: Fascin-2 Acts as an actin bundling protein. May play a pivotal role in photoreceptor cell-specific events, such as disk morphogenesis.
  Defects in FSCN2 are the cause of retinitis pigmentosa type 30 (RP30) [MIM:607921]. RP leads to degeneration of retinal photoreceptor cells. Patients typically have night vision blindness and loss of midperipheral visual field. As their condition progresses, they lose their far peripheral visual field and eventually central vision as well. RP30 inheritance is autosomal dominant.
• Synonyms: FSCN2, Retinal fascin
