REACH authorisation
Abcam has not and does not intend to apply for the REACH Authorisation of customers' uses of products that contain European Authorisation list (Annex XIV) substances.
It is the responsibility of our customers to check the necessity of application of REACH Authorisation, and any other relevant authorisations, for their intended uses.
Lysate preparation:
Our lysates are made using RIPA buffer to which we add a protease inhibitor cocktail and phosphatase inhibitor cocktail (ratio: 300:100:10).
This means that the protein of interest is denatured.
If you require a native form of the protein please use the live cell version. Please refer to our lysis protocol for further details on how our lysates are prepared.
User storage instructions:
Lyophilizate may be stored at 4°C. After reconstitution, store at -20°C for short-term storage or -80°C for long-term storage.

Myoferlin alternatively known as MYOF is a member of the ferlin family proteins and plays a mechanical role in membrane repair and fusion. It has a molecular mass of approximately 230 kDa. Myoferlin expresses mainly in muscle and endothelial tissues. Its function is critical during muscle development and regeneration as it participates in the fusion of myoblasts into mature myotubes. Also Myoferlin is involved in the repair of damaged sarcolemmal membranes in muscle cells.
Biological function summary
The protein supports membrane dynamics and stabilization. Myoferlin is not part of a large complex but interacts with other proteins at the cellular membrane. It regulates cellular processes such as proliferation differentiation and endocytosis. In muscle cells it assists in the organization and function of the cytoskeleton maintaining proper cellular architecture and signaling.
Pathways
Myoferlin engages in critical roles in pathways related to cell membrane repair and trafficking. It associates with pathways like the myogenesis pathway and integrin signaling. In these pathways it interacts with other proteins such as dysferlin and caveolin-3 which facilitate membrane repair and receptor localization respectively. Myoferlin ensures efficient cellular response to membrane damage maintaining tissue integrity.
Myoferlin is connected to muscular dystrophies and cancer. It correlates with the progression of muscular disorder due to its deficiency in membrane repair mechanisms. Additionally in cancer its expression levels relate to tumor invasion and metastasis involving interactions with proteins like E-cadherin and MMP-9. Investigating Myoferlin's role can aid in understanding its potential as a therapeutic target in these diseases.
