Huntingtin Antibody (PA5-17247) in WB
Western blot was performed using Anti-Huntingtin Polyclonal Antibody (Product # PA5-17247) and a 348 kDa band corresponding to Huntingtin was observed across the tissue and cell lines tested except SK-BR-3 which is reported to be negative for Huntingtin expression. Whole cell extracts (1% SDS) (30 µg lysate) of Mouse brain (Lane 1), U-87MG (Lane 2), SH-SY5Y (Lane 3) and SK-BR-3 (Lane 4) were electrophoresed using NuPAGE™ 3-8% Tris-Acetate Protein Gels (Product # EA0375BOX). Resolved proteins were then transferred onto a nitrocellulose memb... View More

Target Information
Huntingtin is a disease gene linked to Huntington's disease (HD), a neurodegenerative disorder characterized by loss of striatal neurons. This is thought to be caused by an expanded, unstable trinucleotide repeat in the huntingtin gene, which translates as a polyglutamine repeat in the protein product. HD is a mid-life onset autosomal dominant neurodegenerative disease that is characterized by psychiatric disorders, dementia, and involuntary movements (chorea), leading to death in 10-20 years.The huntingtin locus is large, spanning 180 kb and consisting of 67 exons. The huntingtin gene is widely expressed and is required for normal development. It is expressed as 2 alternatively polyadenylated forms displaying different relative abundance in various fetal and adult tissues. The larger transcript is approximately 13.7 kb and is expressed predominantly in adult and fetal brain whereas the smaller transcript of approximately 10.3 kb is more widely expressed. The genetic defect leading to Huntington's disease may not necessarily eliminate transcription, but may confer a new property on the mRNA or alter the function of the protein.
