Monoclonal Anti-Ezrin (mouse IgG1 isotype) is derived from the 3C12 hybridoma produced by the fusion of mouse myeloma cells and splenocytes from an immunized mouse. Ezrin is present in microvilli, placental microvilli, microspikes, and membrane ruffles of cultured cells. It is also found in the growth cones of cultured neurons and the marginal band of avian erythrocytes. Ezrin comprises a (4.1 protein, ezrin, radixin and moesin) FERM domain, an a-helical linker region and a C-terminal domain. The amino-terminal domain of ezrin is localized to membranes and the carboxy-terminal part, containing the a-helical domain, colocalizes with actin filaments. Ezrin gene is mapped to the human chromosome location 6q25.3.
MDL Number: MFCD00211933
Storage: -20C
Application: The antibody was used for detection of Ezrin by immunostaining, immunoblotting in human bladder cancer cells , immunohistochemistry, immunoprecipitation in kidney and colon adenocarcinoma cells and electron microscopy in astrocytes
Biochem Physiol Actions: The ezrin/radixin/moesin (ERM) family regulates the dynamic cell membrane functions such as endocytosis, exocytosis, and transmembrane and other cortical signalling pathways. Ezrin (molecular weight 80 kDa) interacts with transmembrane proteins and F-actin and mediate important signalling pathways including RhoA and Hedgehog signalling.
