Background

Four and a half LIM domains protein 1 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the FHL1 gene. It is mapped to Xq26.3. This gene encodes a member of the four-and-a-half-LIM-only protein family. Family members contain two highly conserved, tandemly arranged, zinc finger domains with four highly conserved cysteines binding a zinc atom in each zinc finger. Expression of these family members occurs in a cell- and tissue-specific mode and these proteins are involved in many cellular processes. Mutations in this gene have been found in patients with Emery-Dreifuss muscular dystrophy. Multiple alternately spliced transcript variants which encode different protein isoforms have been described.

Synonyms

Four and a half LIM domains protein 1; FHL-1; KyoT; RBP-associated molecule 14-1; RAM14-1; Skeletal muscle LIM-protein 1; SLIM; SLIM-1

Gene Name

Fhl1

Gene ID

14199

UniProt

P97447

Host

Rabbit

Reactivity

Mouse, Rat

Cross Reactivity

No cross-reactivity with other proteins.

Immunogen

E.coli-derived mouse FHL1 recombinant protein (Position: M1-L280) .

Clonality

Polyclonal

Tissue Specificity

Isoform 1 seems to be most abundant in each tissue and isoform 2 much less abundant. Isoform 1 is highly expressed in skeletal muscle and lung, and to a lesser extent in heart, brain and kidney. Isoform 2 was found in brain, lung kidney and genital organs.

Applications

ELISA, Flow Cytometry, WB

Field of Research

Cytokines, Developmental Biology, Embryogenesis, Embryonic Stem Cells, Immunology, Innate Immunity, Stem Cells, Surface Molecules

Purification

Immunogen affinity purified.

Concentration

Adding 0.2 ml of distilled water will yield a concentration of 500 μg/ml.

Form

Lyophilized

Reconstitution

Add 0.2ml of distilled water will yield a concentration of 500ug/ml.

Function

May have an involvement in muscle development or hypertrophy. Isoform 2 binds to RBP-J and plays a negative regulatory role in the RBP-J-mediated transcription in mammalian systems.
