dysferlin Antibody (C-11) is a mouse monoclonal IgG3 antibody that detects dysferlin protein of human origin by western blotting (WB), immunoprecipitation (IP), immunofluorescence (IF), and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). anti-dysferlin antibody (C-11) is available as a non-conjugated format. Dysferlin plays a crucial role in muscle function and development, as dysferlin is essential for the repair of muscle fibers following injury. Dysferlin is located at the muscle fiber membrane, where dysferlin facilitates the fusion of vesicles containing membrane components to the plasma membrane, a process vital for maintaining muscle integrity and function. Mutations in the human dysferlin gene, DYSF, which is situated on chromosome 2p13.3-p13.1, are linked to limb girdle muscular dystrophy-2B (LGMD-2B) and Miyoshi myopathy (MM), both of which lead to progressive muscle weakness. Dysferlin is first detected in 5-6 week embryos, coinciding with the onset of limb formation, and while dysferlin is not essential for the initial stages of muscle development, dysferlin′s presence is critical for the sustained function of mature muscle. Absence of dysferlin during development can lead to the manifestation of disease phenotypes in adulthood, highlighting dysferlin′s importance in muscle health. Identical mutations in the DYSF gene can result in various myopathy phenotypes, suggesting that other genetic factors may also influence the clinical outcomes. The DYSF gene is unique, lacking homology to any other known mammalian gene, yet dysferlin shares similarities with the spermatogenesis factor fer-1 found in Caenorhabditis elegans, which is reflected in the name ′dysferlin′ that signifies dysferlin′s association with muscular dystrophy.
