Dysferlin Colorimetric Cell-Based ELISA Kit

The Dysferlin Cell-Based ELISA Kit is a convenient, lysate-free, high throughput and sensitive assay kit that can monitor Dysferlin protein expression profile in cells. The kit can be used for measuring the relative amounts of Dysferlin in cultured cells as well as screening for the effects that various treatments, inhibitors (ie. siRNA or chemicals), or activators have on Dysferlin.

Function

Key calcium ion sensor involved in the Ca (2+) -triggered synaptic vesicle-plasma membrane fusion. Plays a role in the sarcolemma repair mechanism of both skeletal muscle and cardiomyocytes that permits rapid resealing of membranes disrupted by mechanical stress (By similarity) .

Subcellular Location

Cell membrane, sarcolemma; Single-pass type II membrane protein. Cytoplasmic vesicle membrane; Single-pass type II membrane protein.Cell membrane. Colocalizes, during muscle differentiation, with BIN1 in the T-tubule system of myotubules and at the site of contact between two myotubes or a myoblast and a myotube. Wounding of myotubes led to its focal enrichment to the site of injury and to its relocalization in a Ca (2+) -dependent manner toward the plasma membrane. Colocalizes with AHNAK, AHNAK2 and PARVB at the sarcolemma of skeletal muscle. Detected on the apical plasma membrane of the syncytiotrophoblast. Reaches the plasmma membrane through a caveolin-independent mechanism. Retained by caveolin at the plasmma membrane (By similarity) . Colocalizes, during muscle differentiation, with CACNA1S in the T-tubule system of myotubules (By similarity) . Accumulates and colocalizes with fusion vesicles at the sarcolemma disruption sites (By similarity) .
