基因名称(Gene Name)
TSC1 KIAA0243 TSC
免疫原
Synthesized peptide derived from Hamartin . at AA range: 360-440
特异性
Hamartin Monoclonal Antibody detects endogenous levels of Hamartin
组成
Liquid in PBS containing 50% glycerol, 0.5% BSA and 0.02% sodium azide.
纯化工艺
The antibody was affinity-purified from mouse antiserum by affinity-chromatography using epitope-specific immunogen.
其他名称
tuberous sclerosis 1
背景
This gene encodes a growth inhibitory protein thought to play a role in the stabilization of tuberin. Mutations in this gene have been associated with tuberous sclerosis. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Jun 2009],
功能
disease:Defects in TSC1 are the cause of tuberous sclerosis complex (TSC) [MIM:191100]. The molecular basis of TSC is a functional impairement of the hamartin-tuberin complex. TSC is an autosomal dominant multi-system disorder that affects especially the brain, kidneys, heart, and skin. TSC is characterized by hamartomas (benign overgrowths predominantly of a cell or tissue type that occurs normally in the organ) and hamartias (developmental abnormalities of tissue combination). Clinical symptoms can range from benign hypopigmented macules of the skin to profound mental retardation with intractable seizures to premature death from a variety of disease-associated causes.,disease:Defects in TSC1 may be a cause of focal cortical dysplasia of Taylor balloon cell type (FCDBC) [MIM:607341]. FCDBC is a subtype of cortical displasias linked to chronic intractable epilepsy. Cortical dysplasias di
