Description générale

NFASC (neurofascin) is a member of the L1 family of CAMs (cell adhesion molecules), which in turn is a part of the immunoglobulin (Ig) superfamily of proteins. It is mainly expressed in the nervous system. The members of L1 family contain six Ig-like domains and four to five Fn (fibronectin) domains in their extracellular region. Their cytoplasmic domain contains a putative conserved motif (FIG(Q/A)Y) that links the proteins to cytoplasm and also facilitates the binding to ankyrin. This protein has multiple spliced isoforms, with two major isoforms called NF155 of 155kDa and NF186 of 186kDa. These isoforms are expressed in the glia and axons respectively.

Application

All Prestige Antibodies Powered by Atlas Antibodies are developed and validated by the Human Protein Atlas (HPA) project and as a result, are supported by the most extensive characterization in the industry.

The Human Protein Atlas project can be subdivided into three efforts: Human Tissue Atlas, Cancer Atlas, and Human Cell Atlas. The antibodies that have been generated in support of the Tissue and Cancer Atlas projects have been tested by immunohistochemistry against hundreds of normal and disease tissues and through the recent efforts of the Human Cell Atlas project, many have been characterized by immunofluorescence to map the human proteome not only at the tissue level but now at the subcellular level. These images and the collection of this vast data set can be viewed on the Human Protein Atlas (HPA) site by clicking on the Image Gallery link. We also provide Prestige Antibodies® protocols and other useful information.

Actions biochimiques/physiologiques

The NF155 isoform of NFASC (neurofascin) acts as the ligand for CNTN1/CASPR1 (contactin 1/ contactin-associated protein 1) complex at the paranode of glia, where it plays an essential role in myelination and the functional assembly of node of Ranvier. Inactivation of this isoform in mice results in severe demyelinating neuropathy, with highly decreased conduction velocities. It is also accompanied with degeneration of Purkinje neurons, which results in ataxia and prominent tremor. Autoantibodies to this protein are linked to a subtype of chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyradiculoneuropathy (CIDP). Studies show that antibodies against NFASC result in accumulation of complement proteins, axonal injury and the exacerbation of multiple sclerosis.

Caractéristiques et avantages

Prestige Antibodies® are highly characterized and extensively validated antibodies with the added benefit of all available characterization data for each target being accessible via the Human Protein Atlas portal linked just below the product name at the top of this page. The uniqueness and low cross-reactivity of the Prestige Antibodies® to other proteins are due to a thorough selection of antigen regions, affinity purification, and stringent selection. Prestige antigen controls are available for every corresponding Prestige Antibody and can be found in the linkage section.

Every Prestige Antibody is tested in the following ways:
  • IHC tissue array of 44 normal human tissues and 20 of the most common cancer type tissues.
  • Protein array of 364 human recombinant protein fragments.

Axonal injury is considered the major cause of disability in patients with multiple sclerosis (MS), but the underlying effector mechanisms are poorly understood. Starting with a proteomics-based approach, we identified neurofascin-specific autoantibodies in patients with MS. These autoantibodies recognize the
