NCBI and Uniprot Product Information
NCBI Description
This gene encodes dystroglycan, a central component of dystrophin-glycoprotein complex that links the extracellular matrix and the cytoskeleton in the skeletal muscle. The encoded preproprotein undergoes O- and N-glycosylation, and proteolytic processing to generate alpha and beta subunits. A complete lack of the encoded protein in mice results in embryonic lethality due to the disorganization of Reichert's membrane. Chimeric mice deficient in the encoded protein overcome embryonic lethality but develop a progressive muscular dystrophy. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants, all encoding the same protein. [provided by RefSeq, Nov 2015]
Uniprot Description
The dystroglycan complex is involved in a number of processes including laminin and basement membrane assembly, sacrolemmal stability, cell survival, peripheral nerve myelination, nodal structure, cell migration, and epithelial polarization.Alpha-dystroglycan is an extracellular peripheral glycoprotein that acts as a receptor for both extracellular matrix proteins containing laminin-G domains, and for certain adenoviruses. Receptor for laminin-2 (LAMA2) and agrin in peripheral nerve Schwann cells. Also receptor for lymphocytic choriomeningitis virus, Old World Lassa fever virus, and clade C New World arenaviruses.Beta-dystroglycan is a transmembrane protein that plays important roles in connecting the extracellular matrix to the cytoskeleton. Acts as a cell adhesion receptor in both muscle and non-muscle tissues. Receptor for both DMD and UTRN and, through these interactions, scaffolds axin to the cytoskeleton. Also functions in cell adhesion-mediated signaling and implicated in cell polarity ().

Product Notes
The Human DAG1 dag1 (Catalog #AAA3800727) is an ELISA Kit and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The AAA3800727 ELISA Kit recognizes Human DAG1. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "Dystrophin Associated Glycoprotein 1 (DAG1), ELISA Kit" 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
