Target/Specificity | This PXN antibody is generated from rabbits immunized with a KLH conjugated synthetic peptide between 94-125 amino acids from human PXN. |
Dilution | WB~~1:1000 IHC-P~~1:10~50 |
Format | Purified polyclonal antibody supplied in PBS with 0.09% (W/V) sodium azide. This antibody is purified through a protein A column, followed by peptide affinity purification. |
Storage | Maintain refrigerated at 2-8°C for up to 2 weeks. For long term storage store at -20°C in small aliquots to prevent freeze-thaw cycles. |
Precautions | PXN Antibody (Y118) is for research use only and not for use in diagnostic or therapeutic procedures. |
Name | PXN |
---|---|
Function | Cytoskeletal protein involved in actin-membrane attachment at sites of cell adhesion to the extracellular matrix (focal adhesion). Recruits other proteins such as TRIM15 to focal adhesion. |
Cellular Location | Cytoplasm, cytoskeleton. Cell junction, focal adhesion. Cytoplasm, cell cortex {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q8VI36}. Note=Colocalizes with integrins at the cell periphery. Colocalize with PXN to membrane ruffles and the leading edge of migrating cells (PubMed:23128389). {ECO:0000250, ECO:0000269|PubMed:23128389} |

Background
PXN is a cytoskeletal adapter protein involved in organisation and function of focal adhesions, which are critical to cell adhesion and migration. This in turn plays a role in a wide variety of processes including embryogenesis, organogenesis, wound repair, inflammation and cancer. PXN contains LD motifs, LIM domains, SH3 and SH2 binding domains that serve as docking sites for cytoskeletal proteins, tyrosine kinases (e.g., FAK, Pyk 2, Src), serine/threonine kinases, GTPase activating proteins and other adaptor proteins (e.g., Actin, Vinculin, Crk).
