Anti-CLN8 (ab1) antibody produced in rabbit

Synthetic peptide directed towards the N terminal region of human CLN8

CLN8 is a transmembrane protein belonging to a family of proteins containing TLC domains, which are postulated to function in lipid synthesis, transport, or sensing. The protein localizes to the endoplasmic reticulum (ER), and may recycle between the ER and ER-Golgi intermediate compartment. Mutations in this gene are associated with progressive epilepsy with mental retardation (EMPR), which is a subtype of neuronal ceroid lipofuscinoses (NCL). Patients with mutations in this gene have altered levels of sphingolipid and phospholipids in the brain. Childhood-onset NCL are a group of autosomal recessive progressive encephalopathies characterized by the accumulation of autofluorescent material, mainly ATP synthase subunit C, in various tissues, notably in neurons. Based on clinical features, the country of origin of patients, and the molecular genetic background of the disorder, at least seven different forms are thought to exist. CLN8 is characterized by normal early development, onset of generalized seizures between 5 and 10 years, and subsequent progressive mental retardation.This gene encodes a transmembrane protein belonging to a family of proteins containing TLC domains, which are postulated to function in lipid synthesis, transport, or sensing.
