Desmuslin Antibody (A-8) is a mouse monoclonal IgG2a kappa light chain antibody that detects Desmuslin protein of mouse, rat, and human origin by western blotting (WB), immunoprecipitation (IP), immunofluorescence (IF), immunohistochemistry, and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Anti-Desmuslin antibody (A-8) is available in both non-conjugated and various conjugated forms, including agarose, horseradish peroxidase (HRP), phycoerythrin (PE), fluorescein isothiocyanate (FITC), and multiple Alexa Fluor® conjugates. Desmuslin plays a crucial role in muscle integrity and function, acting as a type-VI intermediate filament that provides mechanical support to muscle fibers. Desmuslin forms a vital connection between the extracellular matrix and the dystrophin-associated protein complex through the Z-disk, which is essential for maintaining the structural stability of muscle tissues during contraction and relaxation. Desmuslin interacts with other key proteins such as desmin and α-dystrobrevin, which are integral to the muscle′s cytoskeletal framework. While primarily expressed in heart and skeletal muscle, Desmuslin can also be detected in the brain, highlighting potential involvement in various physiological processes. Desmuslin′s structure includes a conserved rod domain, a short N-terminal domain, and a long C-terminal domain, which are important for function and interactions within the cellular environment.

I am using Desmuslin (A-8): sc-374484 monoclonal antibody to stain paraffin embedded tissue. Do you recommend antigen retrieval when using this antibody?

Asked by: cjMara
We recommend performing antigen retrieval with sodium citrate buffer (pH 6) and heat. The full protocol can be found here: https://www.scbt.com/scbt/resources/protocols/immunoperoxidase-staining
