Plakins, with their multi-domain structure and enormous size, not only play crucial roles in maintaining cell and tissue integrity and orchestrating dynamic changes in cytoarchitecture and cell shape, but also serve as scaffolding platforms for the assembly, positioning, and regulation of signaling complexes. Plectin is expressed as several protein isoforms in a wide range of cell types and tissues from a single gene located on chromosome 8 in humans. The plectin gene locus in mouse on chromosome 15 has been analyzed in detail, revealing a genomic exon-intron organization with well over 40 exons spanning over 62 kb and an unusual 5' transcript complexity of plectin isoforms. Eleven exons (1-1j) have been identified that alternatively splice ly into a common exon 2 which is the first exon to encode plectin's highly conserved actin binding domain (ABD). Three additional exons (-1, 0a, and 0) splice into an alternative first coding exon (1c), and two additional exons (2alpha and 3alpha) are optionally spliced within the exons encoding the acting binding domain (exons 2-8). Analysis of the human locus has identified eight of the eleven alternative 5' exons found in mouse and rat; exons 1i, 1j and 1h have not been confirmed in human. Furthermore, isoforms lacking the central rod domain encoded by exon 31 have been detected in mouse, rat, and human. The short alternative amino-terminal sequences encoded by the different first exons  the targeting of the various isoforms to distinct subcellular locations. As the expression of specific plectin isoforms was found to be dependent on cell type (tissue) and stage of development, it appears that each cell type (tissue) contains a unique set (proportion and composition) of plectin isoforms, as if custom-made for specific requirements of the particular cells. Concordantly, individual isoforms were found to carry out distinct and specific functions. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eImmunogen\u003c\/b\u003e: A synthetic peptide corresponding to a sequence in the middle region of human Plectin, different from the related mouse sequence by one amino acid, and from the related rat sequence by two amino acids.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eClonality\u003c\/b\u003e: Polyclonal\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eContents\u003c\/b\u003e: Each vial contains antibody formulated with stabilizing components, 0.9 mg NaCl, 0.2 mg Na2HPO4, and 0.05 mg NaN3.\u003cbr\u003e\n*This antibody is supplied in a stabilized formulation. \u003cbr\u003e\nCompatibility with conjugation reactions depends on the chemistry of the conjugation method used. \u003cbr\u003e\nFor conjugation methods that are not compatible with the stabilizing components present in this formulation, a carrier-free antibody format is required.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003ePurification\u003c\/b\u003e: Immunogen affinity purified.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eReconstitution\u003c\/b\u003e: Add 0.2ml of distilled water will yield a concentration of 500ug\/ml.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eReference\u003c\/b\u003e: 1.
