Product Specs

Introduction
VSNL1, a member of the visinin/recoverin family of neuronal calcium sensor proteins, is predominantly expressed in cerebellar granule cells. It exhibits calcium-dependent membrane association and plays a crucial role in regulating central nervous system signaling pathways. VSNL1 modulates adenylyl cyclase activity, impacting cellular processes. Notably, altered VSNL1 expression is observed in the hippocampus of individuals with schizophrenia, indicating its potential involvement in the disorder. Furthermore, VSNL1 is found in pancreatic beta-cells, where it influences insulin secretion through cAMP-dependent mechanisms. Its downregulation has been linked to decreased cAMP accumulation but increased insulin gene transcription. VSNL1 interacts with the cell membrane and actin cytoskeleton, influencing cellular functions. Additionally, VSNL1 modulates cAMP accumulation in C6 glioma cells, while its counterpart, HLP3, affects cGMP accumulation in neural cells and cerebellar granule neurons.

It is a full-length human protein expressed in Escherichia coli with a His tag at the C-terminus, which facilitates its purification and detection . The recombinant form of VILIP-1 is typically used in various biochemical assays, including SDS-PAGE and sELISA .

Function

VILIP-1 functions as a neuronal calcium-sensor protein. It regulates the inhibition of rhodopsin phosphorylation in a calcium-dependent manner . This regulation is vital for maintaining proper neuronal function and signaling.

Applications

Recombinant VILIP-1 (His tag) is used in research to study its role in neuronal processes and its potential as a biomarker for neurological conditions. It is particularly useful in sandwich ELISA assays due to its high purity and specific reactivity .

Clinical Relevance

VILIP-1 has emerged as a potential biomarker for various neurological conditions. Its levels in blood and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) are being studied for their correlation with neurodegenerative diseases . This makes VILIP-1 a valuable target for research in understanding and diagnosing these conditions.

Storage and Handling

The recombinant VILIP-1 protein is shipped on dry ice and should be stored at -80°C to maintain its stability. It is important to avoid freeze/thaw cycles to preserve its integrity .
