BIN1, also known as Bridging Integrator 1 or Amphiphysin 2, plays a critical role in membrane dynamics, endocytosis, and tumor suppression through its interaction with the MYC oncoprotein. This multifunctional adapter protein has garnered significant research attention due to its involvement in diverse cellular processes, including its established links to Alzheimer's disease susceptibility and its function as a negative regulator of cell proliferation. Understanding BIN1 expression and localization provides valuable insights into membrane remodeling pathways and cancer biology.
This recombinant monoclonal antibody, clone 13C4, offers the reproducibility and consistency that demanding research applications require. Developed using recombinant technology in a rabbit host, this antibody provides sequence-defined specificity against human BIN1, ensuring reliable performance across experimental replicates and eliminating the lot-to-lot variability often encountered with traditional hybridoma-derived antibodies.
Validation studies demonstrate robust performance across multiple platforms. In Western blot applications, this antibody detects BIN1 in HeLa whole cell lysates at dilutions ranging from 1:500 to 1:2000, revealing bands between 65 and 88 kDa. The observed molecular weight range above the predicted 65 kDa likely reflects post-translational modifications, particularly glycosylation, and the presence of multiple BIN1 splice variants known to exist in human cells. Flow cytometry validation in HepG2 cells confirms reliable intracellular detection, with clear separation from isotype control, supporting studies examining BIN1 expression at the single-cell level.
This antibody serves researchers investigating membrane trafficking, MYC-dependent transcriptional regulation, neurodegeneration mechanisms, and tumor suppressor pathways, providing a dependable tool for advancing understanding of this biologically significant protein.
