The 'Disrupted In Schizophrenia' gene locus DISC is associated with patients afflicted with schizophrenia as a result of chromosomal translocations.
DISC-1 encodes a large protein predicted to contain a globular N-terminal domain and a helical C-terminal domain, both of which have the potential to form interactions with other proteins.
DISC-1 interacts with proteins involved in the centrosome and cytoskeletal system, including MIPT3, MAP1A and NUDEL; proteins which localize receptors to membranes, including alpha-actinin 2 and beta 4-spectrin; and proteins which transduce signals from membrane receptors, including ATF-4 and ATF-5.
Therefore, DISC-1 is thought to be involved in intracellular transport, neurite architecture and/or neuronal migration, all of which are thought to be pathogenic in the schizophrenic brain.
Cellular Localization: DISC-1 localizes to the nucleus, whereas mutant DISC-1 localization occurs mainly in the cytoplasm.
It colocalizes with the following organelle structure antibodies: PD1, calnexin, GIANTIN, 58K, Rab4, LAMP-1, RAP1, KDEL, and catalase.
Positive Control: Human brain sections (neurons and glia)
Applications:Suitable for use in Immunohistochemistry (Fr) (paraffin-embedded sections).
Other applications not tested.
Recommended Dilution:Optimal dilutions to be determined by the researcher.
Storage and Stability:May be stored at 4°C for short-term only.
For long-term storage and to avoid repeated freezing and thawing, aliquot Store at -20°C.
Aliquots are stable for at least 12 months at -20°C.
For maximum recovery of product, centrifuge the original vial after thawing and prior to removing the cap.
Further dilutions can be made in assay buffer.
