Clonality Monoclonal Clone number 11E91H12 Isotype IgG2b Light chain type kappa Applications Our Abpromise guarantee covers the use of ab126575 in the following tested applications. The application notes include recommended starting dilutions; optimal dilutions/concentrations should be determined by the end user. 1 Application Abreviews Notes WB Use a concentration of 5 µg/ml. Predicted molecular weight: 84 kDa. ICC/IF Use a concentration of 5 µg/ml. Target Function Essential transmembrane GTPase, which mediates mitochondrial fusion. Fusion of mitochondria occurs in many cell types and constitutes an important step in mitochondria morphology, which is balanced between fusion and fission. MFN1 acts independently of the cytoskeleton. Overexpression induces the formation of mitochondrial networks. Tissue specificity Ubiquitous. Expressed at slightly higher level in kidney and heart. Isoform 2 may be overexpressed in some tumors, such as lung cancers. Sequence similarities Belongs to the mitofusin family. Post-translational modifications Ubiquitinated by MARCH5. Cellular localization Cytoplasm and Mitochondrion outer membrane.
