General description

Desmoglein-1 (DSG1) is a transmembrane glycoprotein belonging to the family of cadherins. It is one of the main structural components of desmosomal junctions which are abundant in tissues undergoing frequent mechanical stress, such as the heart, epidermis, lymphatic endothelial cells, and meninges. The desmoglein-1 subtype is highly expressed in the epidermis. Like other cadherins, desmoglein-1 contains multiple calcium binding sites and a cell-adhesion recognition site which facilitates intercellular adhesions. Desmoglein-1 is regulated by calcium and PKCα signaling, and is also coupled to intermediate filaments of the cytoskeleton. Desmosomes play a critical role in cell and tissue stability, and may contribute to the progression of cancer.

Immunogen

Bovine Desmoglein-1 from nasal epidermis

Application

Anti-Desmoglein-1, clone 32-2B detects levels of Desmoglein-1 proteins & has been published & validated for use in WB, IF, IHC & ICC.
Immunohistochemistry Analysis: A 1:1,000 dilution from a representative lot detected Desmoglein-1 in human tonsil tissues.

Immunofluorescence Analysis: A 1:1,000 dilution from a representative lot detected Desmoglein-1 in human tonsil tissues.

Western Blot Analysis: A representative lot from an independent laboratory detected Desmoglein-1 in bovine epidermal desmosomal cores and in human keratinocyte cell lysates. (Vilela, M. J., et al. (1995). J Cell Sci. 108(Pt 4):1743-1750.).

Immunofluorescent Analysis: A representative lot from an independent laboratory detected Desmoglein-1 in MDCK cells (Vilela, M. J., et al. (1995). J Cell Sci. 108(Pt 4):1743-1750.).

Immunohistochemistry Analysis: A representative lot from an independent laboratory detected Desmoglein-1 in human epidermal tissue (Maruani, A., et al. (2008). Am J Clin Pathol. 130(3):369-374.).

Quality

Evaluated by Western Blot in human tonsil tissue lysate.

Western Blot Analysis: 0.5 µg/mL of this antibody detected Desmoglein-1 in 10 µg of human tonsil tissue lysate.

Target description
