Biological Significance
Filamin is a structural protein that forms flexible cross-links between two actin filaments. Filamin is a homodimer of polypeptide chains each joined to the other at one end with an actin ath the other. It is present in smooth muscle, fibroblasts, platelets and lymphocytes.
Biohazard Information
This product contains sodium azide as preservative. Although the amount of sodium azide is very small appropriate care must be taken when handling.
Immunogen
Filamin antibody was raised in mouse using platelet filamin as the immunogen.

NCBI Summary for FLNB
This gene encodes a member of the filamin family. The encoded protein interacts with glycoprotein Ib alpha as part of the process to repair vascular injuries. The platelet glycoprotein Ib complex includes glycoprotein Ib alpha, and it binds the actin cytoskeleton. Mutations in this gene have been found in several conditions: atelosteogenesis type 1 and type 3; boomerang dysplasia; autosomal dominant Larsen syndrome; and spondylocarpotarsal synostosis syndrome. Multiple alternatively spliced transcript variants that encode different protein isoforms have been described for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Nov 2009]
UniProt Comments for FLNB
FLNB: a ubiquitous cytoskeletal protein that links actin filaments to membrane glycoproteins. Six alternatively spliced isoforms have been described. Various interactions and localizations of isoforms affect myotube morphology and myogenesis. Isoforms 1 and 2 are expressed in placenta, bone marrow, brain, umbilical vein endothelial cells, retina and skeletal muscle. Isoform 1 is predominantly expressed in prostate, uterus, liver, thyroid, stomach, lymph node, small intestine, spleen, skeletal muscle, kidney, placenta, pancreas, heart, lung, platelets, endothelial cells, megakaryocytic and erythroleukemic cell lines. Isoform 2 is predominantly expressed in spinal cord and platelets. Also expressed in thyroid adenoma, neurofibrillary tangles (NFT), senile plaques in the hippocampus and cerebral cortex in Alzheimer's disease. Isoform 3 and isoform 6 are expressed predominantly in lung, heart, skeletal muscle, testis, spleen, thymus and leukocytes. Isoform 4 and isoform 5 are expressed in heart.
