Desmin Antibody
Desmin belongs to the type III family of intermediate filaments, a class of cytoskeletal elements. The DES gene encodes a cytoskeletal protein found in smooth, cardiac, and heart muscles. Tidball (1992) found that Desmin was codistributed with actin thin filaments within the cellular processes of myotendinous junctions in frog skeletal muscle. DES gene contains 9 exons and spans about 8.4 kb. By in situ hybridization, Viegas-Pequignot et al. (1989) localized the gene to 2q35. Mutations are responsible for idiopathic dilated cardiomyopathy.
