Background: CAV1 ( Caveolin-1) is a protein that in humans is encoded by the CAV1 gene. The CAV1 gene is mapped to 7q31.2. The scaffolding protein encoded by this gene is the main component of the caveolae plasma membranes found in most cell types. The protein links integrin subunits to the tyrosine kinase FYN, an initiating step in coupling integrins to the Ras-ERK pathway and promoting cell cycle progression. The gene is a tumor suppressor gene candidate and a negative regulator of the Ras-p42/44 MAP kinase cascade. CAV1 and CAV2 are located next to each other on chromosome 7 and express colocalizing proteins that form a stable hetero-oligomeric complex. By using alternative initiation codons in the same reading frame, two isoforms (alpha and beta) are encoded by a single transcript from this gene.

Immunogen: E.coli-derived human Caveolin-1 recombinant protein (Position: G4-I178). Human Caveolin-1 shares 95% and 94% amino acid (aa) sequence identity with mouse and rat Caveolin-1, respectively.
