Conjugation ready
Our carrier-free antibodies are typically supplied in a PBS-only formulation, purified and free of BSA, sodium azide and glycerol. This conjugation-ready format is designed for use with fluorochromes, metal isotopes, oligonucleotides, and enzymes, which makes them ideal for antibody labelling, functional and cell-based assays, flow-based assays (e.g. mass cytometry) and Multiplex Imaging applications.

Use our conjugation kits for antibody conjugates that are ready-to-use in as little as 20 minutes with 1 minute hands-on-time and 100% antibody recovery: available for fluorescent dyes, HRP, biotin and gold.

Sandwich ELISA
The recommended antibody orientation is based on internal optimization for ELISA-based assays. Antibody orientation is assay dependent and needs to be optimized for each assay type. Please note that the range provided for this antibody is only an estimation based on the performance of the product using the recommended antibody pair. Performance of the antibody pair will depend on the specific characteristics of your assay. We guarantee the product works in sandwich ELISA, but we do not guarantee the sensitivity or dynamic range of the antibody in your assay.

Supplementary information

Dystrophin also known as the DMD protein plays a mechanical role in muscle fibers by connecting the cytoskeleton of a muscle fiber to the surrounding extracellular matrix through the cell membrane. This structural connection helps reinforce the muscle fiber during contraction and mechanical stress. The protein has a molecular weight of approximately 427 kDa. It is expressed mainly in skeletal and cardiac muscles where it is important for maintaining muscle integrity.
Biological function summary

Dystrophin acts as an important component of the dystrophin-glycoprotein complex. This complex stabilizes the muscle cell membrane by linking actin filaments within the cytoskeleton to proteins in the extracellular matrix. The absence or malfunctioning of dystrophin disrupts this connection leading to increased susceptibility to damage during muscle contraction. This is especially evident in tissues where the protein is abundantly present.

Pathways

Dystrophin is integral to the structural integrity pathway in muscle cells. It works alongside proteins like dystroglycan and sarcoglycan forming a multiprotein complex that ensures cell membrane stability during muscle contractions. The proper functioning of the dystrophin complex is also linked to calcium signaling pathways highlighting its role in cellular signaling mechanisms.

Dystrophin's malfunction is directly associated with Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy (DMD) and Becker Muscular Dystrophy (BMD). Mutations in the DMD gene which encodes the dystrophin protein result in the absence or reduced functionality of the protein leading to progressive muscle degeneration observed in DMD and BMD. These disorders frequently involve the protein utrophin which sometimes compensates for the lack of functional dystrophin albeit insufficiently to alleviate the symptoms.

Target data

Anchors the extracellular matrix to the cytoskeleton via F-actin. Ligand for dystroglycan. Component of the dystrophin-associated glycoprotein complex which accumulates at the neuromuscular junction (NMJ) and at a variety of synapses in the peripheral and central nervous systems and has a structural function in stabilizing the sarcolemma. Also implicated in signaling events and synaptic transmission.
