Strumpellin Antibody: Strumpellin is a ubiquitously expressed, multi-transmembrane and spectrin-repeat-containing protein. It is named for Strumpell disease; a progressive upper-motor neurodegenerative disease termed hereditary spastic paraplegia (HSP). The Strumpellin gene maps to the eighth HSP locus (SPG8) on chromosome 8p24.13. Three families liked to this locus have mutations in the Strumpellin gene; rescue studies of zebrafish with decreased Strumpellin expression with Strumpellin mRNA containing these mutations showed impaired normal function of this protein. Recent studies suggest that Strumpellin may also be involved in protein aggregation diseases.1) Valmanis PN, Meijer IA, Reynolds A, et al. Mutations in the KIAA0196 gene at the SPG8 locus cause hereditary spastic paraplegia. Am. J. Hum. Gen. 2007; 80:152-61.
Immunogen
Strumpellin antibody was raised against a 19 amino acid synthetic peptide near the carboxy terminus of human Strumpellin. The immunogen is located within the last 50 amino acids of Strumpellin.
