NCBI and Uniprot Product Information
NCBI Description
Dystroglycan is a laminin binding component of the dystrophin-glycoprotein complex which provides a linkage between the subsarcolemmal cytoskeleton and the extracellular matrix. Dystroglycan 1 is a candidate gene for the site of the mutation in autosomal recessive muscular dystrophies. The dramatic reduction of dystroglycan 1 in Duchenne muscular dystrophy leads to a loss of linkage between the sarcolemma and extracellular matrix, rendering muscle fibers more susceptible to necrosis. Dystroglycan also functions as dual receptor for agrin and laminin-2 in the Schwann cell membrane. The muscle and nonmuscle isoforms of dystroglycan differ by carbohydrate moieties but not protein sequence. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants all encoding the same protein.[provided by RefSeq, Apr 2010]
Uniprot Description
DAG1: a cytoskeletal protein that functions as a laminin receptor. Provides a linkage between the subsarcolemmal cytoskeleton and the extracellular matrix. May be involved in autosomal recessive muscular dystrophies. Its dramatic reduction in Duchenne muscular dystrophy leads to a loss of linkage between the sarcolemma and extracellular matrix, rendering muscle fibers more susceptible to necrosis. Dystroglycan also functions as dual receptor for agrin and laminin-2 in the Schwann cell membrane. Binds to several types of arenaviruses. Is a target for the entry of Mycobacterium leprae into peripheral nerve Schwann cells. The muscle and nonmuscle isoforms of dystroglycan differ by carbohydrate moieties but not protein sequence.

Product Notes
The DAG1 dag1 (Catalog #AAA474298) is an Antibody produced from Mouse and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The beta-Dystroglycan (C-terminal region) Antibody reacts with Human and may cross-react with other species as described in the data sheet. AAA Biotech's beta-Dystroglycan can be used in a range of immunoassay formats including, but not limited to, Western Blot (WB), ELISA (EIA). ELISA: 1:2000 WB: 1:1000. Researchers should empirically determine the suitability of the DAG1 dag1 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 "beta-Dystroglycan, Monoclonal 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.Precautions
