NCBI Description

This gene encodes a member of the doublecortin family. The protein encoded by this gene is a cytoplasmic protein and contains two doublecortin domains, which bind microtubules. In the developing cortex, cortical neurons must migrate over long distances to reach the site of their final differentiation. The encoded protein appears to direct neuronal migration by regulating the organization and stability of microtubules. In addition, the encoded protein interacts with LIS1, the regulatory gamma subunit of platelet activating factor acetylhydrolase, and this interaction is important to proper microtubule function in the developing cortex. Mutations in this gene cause abnormal migration of neurons during development and disrupt the layering of the cortex, leading to epilepsy, cognitive disability, subcortical band heterotopia ("double cortex" syndrome) in females and lissencephaly ("smooth brain" syndrome) in males. Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Sep 2010]

Uniprot Description

Microtubule-associated protein required for initial steps of neuronal dispersion and cortex lamination during cerebral cortex development. May act by competing with the putative neuronal protein kinase DCLK1 in binding to a target protein. May in that way participate in a signaling pathway that is crucial for neuronal interaction before and during migration, possibly as part of a calcium ion-dependent signal transduction pathway. May be part with PAFAH1B1/LIS-1 of overlapping, but distinct, signaling pathways that promote neuronal migration.

Product Notes

The DCX dcx (Catalog #AAA423716) is an Antibody and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The Goat anti-Doublecortex/DCX Antibody reacts with Mouse Expected from sequence similarity: Human, Rat, Dog, Cat and may cross-react with other species as described in the data sheet. AAA Biotech's Doublecortex/DCX can be used in a range of immunoassay formats including, but not limited to, Peptide ELISA (EIA), Immunofluorescence (IF), Western Blot (WB). Pep-ELISA: antibody detection limit dilution 1:128000. WB: Approx 45kDa band observed in Mouse fetal Brain lysates. Recommended concentration: 0.003-0.01ug/ml. Primary incubation 1 hour at room temperature. IF: Strong expression of the protein seen in the cytoplasm of NIH3T3 cells. Recommended concentration: 5ug/ml. Researchers should empirically determine the suitability of the DCX dcx 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 "Doublecortex/DCX, Antibody" 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.
