INF2 Antibody

1. INF2-mediated actin polymerization on the endoplasmic reticulum stimulates mitochondrial division by two independent mechanisms: (1) mitochondrial calcium uptake, leading to inner mitochondrial membrane constriction; and (2) Drp1 oligomerization, leading to outer mitochondrial membrane constriction. PMID: 29142021
2. Studies indicate that INF2, a formin, that is mutated in hereditary renal and neurodegenerative disorders. PMID: 29947928

5. All individuals with INF2 mutations presenting with a thrombotic microangiopathy also had atypical hemolytic uremic syndrome risk haplotypes, potentially accounting for the genetic pleiotropy PMID: 27974406

7. FHOD1 and INF2 are novel regulators of inter- and intra-structural contractility of podosomes. PMID: 26621033
8. Report novel mutations in the inverted formin 2 gene of Chinese families contributing to focal segmental glomerulosclerosis. PMID: 26039629
9. Assembly and turnover of short actin filaments by the formin INF2 and profilin. PMID: 26124273
10. INF2 mutations are associated with focal segmental glomerulosclerosis. PMID: 25165188
11. this study identifed three novel mutations of INF likely efect hereditary neuropathy with glomerulopathy. PMID: 24174593
12. actin monomer binding to the DAD of INF2 competes with the DID/DAD interaction, thereby activating actin polymerization PMID: 23921379
13. INF2 mutation was detected both father and his son PMID: 23847988
14. This study showed that INF2 mutations in Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease complicated with focal segmental glomerulosclerosis. PMID: 23521651
15. In podocytes, INF2 appears to be an important modulator of actin-dependent behaviors that are under the control of Rho/mDia signaling. PMID: 23620398
16. INF2 mutations were found in 2 of 281 individuals with sporadicfocal and segmental glomerulosclerosis PMID: 23014460
17. Our study confirms the link between INF2 mutations and Charcot-Marie-Tooth-associated glomerulopathy and widens the spectrum of pathogenic mutations. PMID: 22961558
18. A novel mutation, outside of the candidate region for diagnosis, in the inverted formin 2 gene can cause focal segmental glomerulosclerosis. PMID: 22971997
19. Formation of stabilized, detyrosinated microtubules required the formin INF2. PMID: 22986496
20. study found actin polymerization through ER-localized INF2 was required for efficient mitochondrial fission; INF2-induced actin filaments may drive initial mitochondrial constriction, which allows Drp1-driven secondary constriction PMID: 23349293
21. Mutations to the formin homology 2 domain of INF2 protein have unexpected effects on actin polymerization and severing. PMID: 22879592
22. Splice variant-specific cellular function of the formin INF2 in maintenance of Golgi architecture. PMID: 21998196
23. INF2 mutations were responsible for 16% of all cases of autosomal dominant focal and segmental glomerulosclerosis, with these mutations clustered in exon 4. PMID: 21866090
24. Actin monomers inhibit microtubule binding/bundling by INF2 PMID: 21998204
25. INF2 mutations appear to cause many cases of FSGS-associated Charcot-Marie-Tooth neuropathy, showing that INF2 is involved in a disease affecting both the kidney glomerulus and the peripheral nervous system. PMID: 22187985
26. The effects of disease-causing INF2 mutations suggest an important role for this protein and its interaction with other formins in modulating glomerular podocyte phenotype and function. PMID: 21278336
27. In conclusion, we described an additional familial case of the autosomal dominant form of focalsegmental glomerulosclerosis associated with INF2 mutations. PMID: 20803156
28. Six of the seven distinct altered residues localized to an INF2 region that corresponded to a subdomain of the mDia1 diaphanous inhibitory domain reported to co-immunoprecipitate with IQ motif-containing GTPase-activating protein 1 PMID: 21258034
29. Study identified nine independent nonconservative missense mutations in INF2, which encodes a member of the formin family of actin-regulating proteins. PMID: 20023659
