ADAMTSL1 (Punctin-1, ADAMTS-like Protein 1, ADAMTSL-1, ADAMTSR1, C9orf94, UNQ528/PRO1071)

Punctin-1 is a secreted molecule resembling members of the family of proteases designated ADAMTS (a disintegrin-like and metalloprotease domain with thrombospondin type I motif). ADAMTS proteases are secreted enzymes that consist of a metalloprotease domain (which provides the catalytic activity) and ancillary domains (which provide substrate, cell or extracellular matrix activity). Punctin-1 lacks the pro-metalloprotease and the disintegrin-like domain typical of this family but contains other ADAMTS domains in precise order including 4 thrombospondin-I repeats. Punctin-1 is an extracellular matrix protein in tissues and deposited into the cell substratum and localized towards the periphery of transfected cells. Punctin-1 and Punctin-2 (ADAMTSL-3) are the first members of a novel family of ADAMTS-like proteins that appear to have important functions in the extracellular matrix. This monoclonal antibody recognizes the spacer domain and reacts with molecular species of 55kD or a doublet of 55kD and 60kD (glycosylated form). Note that proteolysis of Punctin-1 has been described and additional smaller bands may also be obtained.\n\nApplications:\nSuitable for use in Western Blot and ELISA. Other applications not tested.\n\nRecommended Dilution:\nOptimal dilutions to be determined by the researcher.\n\nStorage and Stability:\nMay be stored at 4 degrees C for short-term only. Aliquot to avoid repeated freezing and thawing. Store at -20 degrees C. Aliquots are stable for at least 12 months. For maximum recovery of product, centrifuge the original vial after thawing and prior to removing the cap.
