| Product Name | Human Destrin (DSTN) ELISA Kit |
|---|---|
| Description | Destrin belongs to the actin-binding proteins ADF/cofilin family. This family of proteins is responsible for enhancing the turnover rate of actin in vivo. This gene encodes the actin depolymerizing protein that severs actin filaments (F-actin) and binds to actin monomers (G-actin). Two transcript variants encoding distinct isoforms have been identified for this gene. In a variety of eukaryotes, destrin regulates actin in the cytoskeleton. Destrin binds actin and is thought to connect it as gelsolin segment-1 does. Furthermore, the binding of actin by destrin and cofilin is regulated negatively by phosphorylation. Destrin can also sever actin filaments. At a pH of 7.3 or higher it can sever the filaments but a lower pH the ability for it to do so is limited. This assay has high sensitivity and excellent specificity for detection of Human DSTN. No significant cross-reactivity or interference between Human DSTN and analogues was observed. |
