Other Names | Gelsolin, AGEL, Actin-depolymerizing factor, ADF, Brevin, GSN |
Target/Specificity | This GSN antibody is generated from rabbits immunized with a KLH conjugated synthetic peptide between 230-259 amino acids from the N-terminal region of human GSN. |
Dilution | WB~~1:2000 IHC-P~~1:50~100 FC~~1:10~50 |
Format | Purified polyclonal antibody supplied in PBS with 0.09% (W/V) sodium azide. This antibody is prepared by Saturated Ammonium Sulfate (SAS) precipitation followed by dialysis against PBS. |
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 | GSN Antibody (N-term) is for research use only and not for use in diagnostic or therapeutic procedures. |
Name | GSN |
---|---|
Function | Calcium-regulated, actin-modulating protein that binds to the plus (or barbed) ends of actin monomers or filaments, preventing monomer exchange (end-blocking or capping). It can promote the assembly of monomers into filaments (nucleation) as well as sever filaments already formed (PubMed:19666512). Plays a role in ciliogenesis (PubMed:20393563). |
Cellular Location | [Isoform 2]: Cytoplasm, cytoskeleton. |
Tissue Location | Phagocytic cells, platelets, fibroblasts, nonmuscle cells, smooth and skeletal muscle cells |

Background
GSN binds to the 'plus' ends of actin monomers and filaments to prevent monomer exchange. The calcium-regulated protein functions in both assembly and disassembly of actin filaments. Defects in this protein are a cause of familial amyloidosis Finnish type (FAF).
