Abcam has not and does not intend to apply for the REACH Authorisation of customers' uses of products that contain European Authorisation list (Annex XIV) substances.
It is the responsibility of our customers to check the necessity of application of REACH Authorisation, and any other relevant authorisations, for their intended uses.

Lysate preparation: Our lysates are made using RIPA buffer to which we add a protease inhibitor cocktail and phosphatase inhibitor cocktail (ratio: 300:100:10). This means that the protein of interest is denatured. If you require a native form of the protein please use the live cell version. Please refer to our lysis protocol for further details on how our lysates are prepared.

User storage instructions: Lyophilizate may be stored at 4°C. After reconstitution, store at -20°C for short-term storage or -80°C for long-term storage.

Activity summary

PICALM also known as Phosphatidylinositol binding clathrin assembly protein is a protein weighing approximately 70 kDa. It plays an important role in clathrin-mediated endocytosis where it helps assembly of the clathrin coat on the cytoplasmic face of the cell membrane. Expression of the PICALM gene is found in various tissues with significant levels in the brain lungs and spleen. The gene encoding PICALM is located on chromosome 11.

Biological function summary

PICALM is essential in the trafficking of molecules within cells particularly in the endocytosis and endosomal sorting pathways. This protein is part of large protein complexes assembled during the formation of vesicles. Through these complexes PICALM influences the transport and recycling of membrane receptors and other molecules ensuring proper cellular functions. The clathrin coat assembly and disassembly rely heavily on its function for effective cellular trafficking processes.

Pathways

PICALM integrates into the clathrin-mediated endocytosis and vesicle-mediated transport pathways. It works alongside proteins such as adaptin and dynamin to facilitate the internalization of proteins and later processing within cellular compartments. In the context of cellular signaling and homeostasis these pathways involving PICALM contribute significantly to receptor recycling and downregulation maintaining proper cellular responses to external stimuli.

Associated diseases and disorders

PICALM has been linked to Alzheimer's disease and acute myeloid leukemia (AML). In Alzheimer's disease altered PICALM function or expression can affect amyloid precursor protein processing implicating proteins such as presenilins and tau as well. For acute myeloid leukemia the PICALM-MLLT10 fusion protein resulting from chromosomal translocations can contribute to leukemogenesis by disrupting normal gene regulation. These associations highlight the diverse roles and importance of PICALM in both normal physiology and pathology.
