Recombinant Guinea Pig TRIM46 Antibody

 

Overview

Recombinant antibody specifically developed for TRIM46

This new guinea pig recombinant antibody is specifically developed for TRIM46. The tripartite motif containing protein TRIM46, also referred to as TRIFIC, is a member of the C-I TRIM family, a subfamily of the RBCC (N-terminal RING finger/B-box/coiled coil)/TRIM superfamily. TRIM46 is a prominent marker for the axon initial segment (AIS) in the adult brain. By forming closely spaced parallel microtubule bundles, it plays a crucial role in the initial polarization of neuronal cells.
A unique compartment located at the base of axons, called the axon initial segment (see Fig. 3), separates the somatodendritic and axonal compartments. It has a key role in neuronal physiology as it defines the initiation site of action potentials and functions as the gatekeeper of axonal arborization (2).
