This IgG1 mouse monoclonal antibody [VIA41] is reactive against alpha dystroglycan.
Highlights:
- Broad cross reactivity - Human, Mouse and Rabbit
- Suitable for Western Blot and Immunofluorescence applications
Dystroglycan is one of the dystrophin-associated glycoproteins that acts as a transmembrane link between the extracellular matrix and the cytoskeleton. They are involved in a number of processes such as lamnin and basement membrane assembly, sacrolemmal stability, cell survival, nerve myelination, nodal structure, cell migration and epithelial polarization. Specifically, alpha dystroglycan (an extraceullular glycoprotein) acts as a receptor for both extracellular matrix proteins containing laminin-G domains, and for certain adenoviruses.
