Application Notes
Peptide ELISA: Talin 1antibody Detection limit dilution: 1/8000. Western blot: 1-3 μg/mL. A >250 kDa band observed in Human Peripheral Mononucleocytelysates (calculated MW of 270 kDa according to NP_006280.3). An additional band of unknown identity was also consistently observed at 110 kDa. Thisband was successfully blocked by incubation with the immunizing peptide. Other applications not tested. Optimal dilutions are dependent on conditions and should be determined by the user.

Talin, a multifunctional constituent of cell-substratum attachment sites, is a high molecular weight protein (225-270 kDa) found in variety of tissues and cell types. It is localized at a subset of adherens junctions, specialized cell-cell and cell-matrix associations that are characterized by the presence of filamentous actin at the cytoplasmic face of the junctional complex. In cultured cells, talin is absent from cell-cell junctions and found predominantly at adhesion plaques and in fibrillar streaks underlying cell surface fibronectin. Talin interacts with at least two other proteins that are localized at adhesion plaques, vinculin and integrin. Talin and vinculin have been shown to interact with each other and both have been proposed to be involved in generating the transmembrane connection, between the extracellular matrix and the cytoskeleton, that occurs at adhesion plaques. At physiological ionic strength, talin is an elongate, flexible, monomeric protein with the ability to self-associate into dimers at higher protein concentrations.Synonyms: KIAA1027, TLN
