NCBI and Uniprot Product Information
Uniprot Description
MYH11: Muscle contraction. A chromosomal aberration involving MYH11 is found in acute myeloid leukemia of M4EO subtype. Pericentric inversion inv(16)(p13;q22). The inversion produces a fusion protein consisting of the 165 N-terminal residues of CBF-beta (PEPB2) and the tail region of MYH11. Defects in MYH11 are the cause of familial aortic aneurysm thoracic type 4 (AAT4); also known as familial thoracic aortic aneurysm and dissection (TAAD). Aneurysms and dissections of the aorta usually result from degenerative changes in the aortic wall. Thoracic aortic aneurysms and dissections are primarily associated with a characteristic histologic appearance known as 'medial necrosis' or 'Erdheim cystic medial necrosis' in which there is degeneration and fragmentation of elastic fibers, loss of smooth muscle cells, and an accumulation of basophilic ground substance. Patients with AAT4 show marked aortic stiffness. Pathological aortas show large areas of medial degeneration with very low smooth muscle cells content. 3 isoforms of the human protein are produced by alternative splicing.

Product Notes
The Mouse MYH11 myh11 (Catalog #AAA7236295) is an ELISA Kit and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The AAA7236295 ELISA Kit recognizes Mouse MYH11. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "Myosin-11 (MYH11), 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
