EFHD2 Antibody, FITC conjugated

1. Data demonstrate that EFhd2 shows unique structural and biological features as an EF-hand containing F-actin bundling protein. For F-actin bundling activity, structural stabilization of the EF-hand domains was found to occur in the presence of Ca2+. The core region of EFhd2 maintains its structure in the absence of Ca2+ ; however, changes in local conformational flexibility reduce F-actin bundling activity of EFhd2. PMID: 27974828
2. Phosphorylation at Ser183 of EFhd2 causes changes in the local conformational dynamics and the surface charge distribution of the actin-binding site, resulting in a re-coordination of the actin-binding sites in the dimer structure. PMID: 28011271
3. The results imply that EFhd2's physiological and/or pathological function could be regulated by its phosphorylation state. PMID: 24917152
4. EFhd2 is involved in the control of synapse development and maintenance and is linked to dementia. PMID: 25383639
5. Swiprosin-1 localizes to microvilli-like membrane protrusions and lamellipodia and exhibits actin-binding activity. PMID: 23977092
6. Swiprosin-1 is involved in regulating the accessibility of F-actin to cofilin through the clustering of F-actin and the activity of Swiprosin-1 is highly dependent on its phosphorylation status at Ser183 PMID: 23959172
7. EFhd2 may play an important role in the pathobiology of tau-mediated neurodegeneration. PMID: 23331044
8. the human Shu complex (hSWS1.SWSAP1) has an evolutionarily conserved function in homologous recombination PMID: 21965664
9. This protein has been found differentially expressed in thalami from patients with schizophrenia. PMID: 20471030
10. Its predominant presence in CD8 lymphocytes suggests that swiprosin-1 may be involved in functions that are important for cytotoxic lymphocytes. PMID: 15274114
11. These results suggest that swiprosin-1 is a PKC-beta I/eta-inducible gene and it modulates mast cell activation through NF-kappaB-dependent pathway. PMID: 19693767
