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

Zyxin also known as ZYX is a mechanical regulator associated with cell adhesion and signaling. This protein has a molecular mass of approximately 61 kDa and shows expression in various cell types including those in the heart liver and lungs. As a component of focal adhesions zyxin plays a role in cytoskeletal dynamics by interacting with actin filaments and facilitating the formation of stress fibers.

Biological function summary

The protein has important roles in cellular processes such as migration and morphology. Zyxin often forms part of a larger protein complex that includes VASP and α-actinin which contribute to cell scaffolding and structural integrity. It serves as an organizer for cytoskeletal proteins ensuring proper cell movement and adaptability to cellular stress. Its actin-binding capacity enables it to regulate structural changes necessary for cellular adaptation to environmental stimuli.

Pathways

This protein is essential in the regulation of actin cytoskeleton associated pathways and adherens junction signaling. Zyxin interacts with Ena/VASP proteins which are significant in actin filament elongation helping regulate dynamic changes in cell shape and motility. Its relationship with LIM domain-containing proteins positions zyxin within pathways related to cell proliferation and signal transduction.

Associated diseases and disorders

Zyxin has been implicated in cancer progression especially in metastasis where altered cell adhesion and movement play a role. It also relates to cardiovascular diseases due to its involvement in mechanotransduction pathways critical to heart muscle function. In cancer zyxin influences the activity of YAP/TAZ transcription regulators affecting tumor cell behavior. In cardiovascular scenarios the protein interacts with paxillin to mediate responses to mechanical load changes impacting heart disease progression.
