LIMA1 blocking peptide
LIMA1 Peptide
NCBI and Uniprot Product Information
NCBI Description
This gene encodes a cytoskeleton-associated protein that inhibits actin filament depolymerization and cross-links filaments in bundles. It is downregulated in some cancer cell lines. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been described for this gene, and expression of some of the variants maybe independently regulated.

Uniprot Description
eplin: Binds to actin monomers and filaments. Increases the number and size of actin stress fibers and inhibits membrane ruffling. Inhibits actin filament depolymerization. Bundles actin filaments, delays filament nucleation and reduces formation of branched filaments. 4 isoforms of the human protein are produced by alternative promoter.
Protein type: Actin-binding; Motility/polarity/chemotaxis; Cytoskeletal
Chromosomal Location of Human Ortholog: 12q13
Cellular Component: focal adhesion; cytoplasm; plasma membrane; stress fiber; actin cytoskeleton; cleavage furrow
Molecular Function: actin monomer binding; actin filament binding; protein binding; zinc ion binding
Biological Process: actin filament bundle formation; ruffle organization and biogenesis; negative regulation of actin filament depolymerization

Product Notes
The LIMA1 lima1 (Catalog #AAA153860) is a Blocking Peptide and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. AAA Biotech's LIMA1 can be used in a range of immunoassay formats including, but not limited to, Blocking (BL). LIMA1 peptide is used for blocking the activity of LIMA1 antibody. Researchers should empirically determine the suitability of the LIMA1 lima1 for an application not listed in the data sheet. Researchers commonly develop new applications and it is an integral, important part of the investigative research process. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "LIMA1, Blocking Peptide" to become dispersed throughout the inside of the vial, particularly around the seal of said vial, during shipment and storage. We always suggest centrifuging these vials to consolidate all of the liquid away from the lid and to the bottom of the vial prior to opening. Please be advised that certain products may require dry ice for shipping and that, if this is the case, an additional dry ice fee may also be required.Precautions
