Target description

Dystroglycan (UniProt: Q28685; also known as Dystrophin-associated glycoprotein 1) is encoded by the DAG1 gene (Gene ID: 100009278) in rabbit. Dystroglycan is a component of the dystrophin glycoprotein complex that serves as an adhesion molecule and links the extracellular matrix to the intracellular actin cytoskeleton. It is synthesized with a signal peptide (aa 1-29) that is subsequently cleaved off to generate the mature protein that is further autolytically cleaved (between 653-654) to produce alpha-dystroglycan (aa 30-653) and beta-dystroglycan (aa 654-895). Alpha-dystroglycan is an extracellular peripheral glycoprotein that binds to several extracellular matrix and synaptic proteins such as laminin, agrin, neurexin, and pikachurin. It is reported that its O-mannosyl glycosylation is required for its ligand- binding functions. Beta-dystroglycan is a single-pass type 1 transmembrane protein that plays important roles in connecting the extracellular matrix to the cytoskeleton and serves as a cell adhesion receptor in both muscle and non-muscle tissues. In the cell, beta-dystroglycan binds to dystrophin that is linked to actin cytoskeleton. Hence, alpha/beta dystroglycans act as a molecular axis connecting extracellular matrix with the cytoskeleton across the plasma membrane. Defects in O-mannosyl glycan have been linked to various congenital muscular dystrophies caused by aberrant alpha-dystroglycan glycosylation. This ZooMAb recombinant monoclonal antibody, generated by our propriety technology, offers significantly enhanced specificity, affinity, reproducibility, and stability over conventional monoclonals.
