Anti-SESTD1 Antibody

SESTD1 was initially identified in mutant zebrafish with defects in the spontaneous contraction and touch response as a novel gene, solo, encoding a protein containing SEC14 and spectrin repeat domains. Other experiments indicated that SESTD1 interacts with the TRPC4 and TRPC5, members of the transient receptor potential channel family, via the TRPC calmodulin- and inositol 1, 4, 5-triphosphate receptor-binding domain and is essential for efficient receptor-mediated activation of TRPC5, suggesting that SESTD1 is a novel regulator of these TRPC proteins.

SESTD1 antibody was raised against a 15 amino acid synthetic peptide near the carboxy terminus of human SESTD1. The immunogen is located within the last 50 amino acids of SESTD1.

May act as the primary docking protein directing membrane turnover and assembly of the transient receptor potential channels TRPC4 and TRPC5. Binds phospholipids such as phosphatidylinositol monophosphates, phosphatidylinositol diphosphates (PIP2s) and phosphatidic acid, but not less polar lipids including phosphatidylcholine, phosphatidylserine, and phosphatidylinositol. The binding to PIP2s is calcium dependent. Might be involved in the plasma membrane localization of CTNNB1.

SESTD1 antibody can be stored at 4°C for three months and -20°C, stable for up to one year. Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles. Antibodies should not be exposed to prolonged high temperatures.
