Product Specifications

Immunogen

The original antibody was generated by immunizing BALB/c mice with a mixture of transfected HEK 293 cells expressing human and mouse beta-DAG. (Uniprot# Q14118; Q62165)

Specificity

This antibody recognizes human and mouse beta dystroglycan (beta-DAG). Beta-dystroglycan is a transmembrane protein that plays an important role in connecting the extracellular matrix to the cytoskeleton. It plays an important role in linking dystrophin to the laminin-binding alpha-dystroglycan. It acts as a cell adhesion receptor in both muscle and non-muscle tissues. It also functions in cell adhesion-mediated signaling and implicated in cell polarity.

Immunocytochemistry/ Immunofluorescence: Beta Dystroglycan Antibody (P38G1) - BSA Free [NBP3-43569] - Immunofluorescence analysis of paraformaldehyde fixed A431 cells on coverslips stained with the chimeric verison of this antibody, NBP3-43570 (1:100 dilution) for 1h followed by Alexa Fluor® 488 secondary antibody (1:1000 dilution), showing cell membrane/junction and cytoplasmic staining. The nuclear stain is DAPI (blue). Panels show, from left-right, top-bottom, NBP3-43570, DAPI, merged channels, and an isotype control. The isotype control was an unknown specificity antibody followed by staining with Alexa Fluor® 488 secondary antibody.

Background: Beta Dystroglycan

The dystroglycan complex is a membrane-spanning complex composed of two subunits, alpha- and beta-dystroglycan. Alpha-dystroglycan is a cell surface peripheral membrane protein which binds to the extracellular matrix (ECM), whereas beta-dystroglycan is an integral membrane protein which anchors alpha-dystroglycan to the cell membrane. The dystroglycan complex provides a tight link between the ECM and cell membrane. Dysfunction of the dystroglycan complex has commonly been implicated in the molecular pathogenesis of severe forms of hereditary neuromuscular diseases, including Duchenne muscular dystrophy, Fukuyama-type congenital muscular dystrophy and sarcoglycanopathy (1). Human dystroglycan is expressed in a variety of fetal and adult tissues. Data suggest that muscle and non-muscle isoforms of dystroglycan differ by carbohydrate moieties but not protein sequence. Therefore variable glycosylation of the conserved protein core might modulate laminin binding (2). beta-dystroglycan has been localized to microvilli structures in a number of cell types where it associates with the cytoskeletal adaptor ezrin, through which it is able to modulate the actin cytoskeleton and induce peripheral filopodia and microvilli (3).
