Filamin 1 polyclonal antibody, anti-human, mouse, rat

Background:
Filamin-A encoded by FLNA is an actin-binding protein that crosslinks actin filaments and links actin filaments to membrane glycoproteins. Filamin-A is involved in remodeling the cytoskeleton to effect changes in cell shape and migration. Filamin-A interacts with integrins, transmembrane receptor complexes, and second messengers. Defects in FLNA are a cause of several syndromes, including periventricular nodular heterotopias (PVNH1, PVNH4), otopalatodigital syndromes (OPD1, OPD2), frontometaphyseal dysplasia (FMD), Melnick-Needles syndrome (MNS), and X-linked congenital idiopathic intestinal pseudoobstruction (CIIPX). Two transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene.
