Description: Desmin belongs to the type III family of intermediate filaments, a class of cytoskeletal elements. The DES gene encodes a cytoskeletal protein found in smooth, cardiac, and heart muscles. Tidball(1992) found that Desmin was codistributed with actin thin filaments within the cellular processes of myotendinous junctions in frog skeletal muscle. DES gene contains 9 exons and spans about 8.4 kb. By in situ hybridization, Viegas-Pequignot et al.(1989) localized the gene to 2q35. Mutations are responsible for idiopathic dilated cardiomyopathy.

Immunogen: Desmin from pig stomach was used as the immunogen for this Desmin antibody.

Storage: After reconstitution, the Desmin antibody can be stored for up to one month at 4oC. For long-term, aliquot and store at -20 °C. Avoid repeated freezing and thawing.
