- Background
- This antibody is suitable for Cancer, Immunology and Nuclear Signaling research. Tamalin, also named General receptor for phosphoinositides 1-associated scaffold protein (GRASP) is a PDZ (post-synaptic density protein/Drosophila disc large tumor suppressor/zo-1) domain-containing protein that interacts with group 1 metabotropic glutamate receptors (mGluRs) . The PDZ domain-containing amino-terminal half of Tamalin binds directly to the class I PDZ-binding motif of group 1 mGluRs. The carboxyl-terminal half of Tamalin binds to cytohesins, which are guanine nucleotide exchange factors (GEFs) specific for the ADP-ribosylation factor (ARF) family of small GTP-binding proteins. Tamalin forms a protein complex with group 1 mGluRs at the post-synaptic site of specific neuronal cells and serves as a key scaffold protein that links a complex formation between mGluR1a and cytohesins. It is reported that Tamalin plays a key role in the association of group 1 mGluRs with the ARF-specific GEF proteins and contributes to intracellular trafficking and the macromolecular organization of group 1 mGluRs at synapses.

- Purification
- This affinity purified antibody is directed against mouse Tamalin protein. The product was affinity purified from monospecific antiserum by immunoaffinity chromatography. A BLAST analysis was used to suggest cross-reactivity with Tamalin protein from rat based on a 94% homology with the immunizing sequence. Reactivity against homologues from other sources is not known.
