Mouse monoclonal [11C1.3] to Fibrillin 1Fibrillin 1 is an extracellular acidic protein with a high cysteine content and an extended thread-like shape with mosaic composition of different types of extracellular modules. Most of the fibrillin molecule is contributed by 47 epidermal growth factor-like (EGF-like) repeats; 43 of them have a consensus sequence for calcium binding (cb). Other modules including 8-cysteine motifs (seven), hybrid motifs (two), and unique domains (three) are interspersed throughout the molecule[3-7]. Fibrillin 1 contains a proline-rich region close to the N-terminus that is replaced by a glycine-rich region in Fibrillin 2. The fibrillins are found throughout the connective tissue as integral components of extended fibrils.

Tested Applications
EMICC/IFIHC-FWB
Electron Microscopy / Immunofluorescence / Immunohistochemistry: assay dependent. Western blot: use at a concentration of 1 - 2μg/ml for 2 hours at RT. By Western blot this detects a band of ~ 350 kDa, which corresponds to the predicted molecular weight of Fibrillin 1. Optimal dilutions/concentrations should be determined by the end user.:
