other info1 :
Immunogen: Clone (M117) was generated from a synthetic peptide (coupled to KLH) corresponding to amino acid residues around tyrosine 892 of human
dystroglycan. This peptide sequence has high homology to the conserved tyrosine site in rat and mouse dystroglycan.
products description :
Dystroglycans are essential elements of the neuromuscular junction (NMJ). The gene for dystroglycan is expressed as a precursor protein that is post-translationally cleaved into a 156 kDa extracellular peripheral membrane protein called a-dystroglycan and a 43 kDa transmembrane protein, b-dystroglycan. The latter protein contains a PPxY motif that promotes binding to WW domain-containing proteins, such as utrophin and dystrophin. Phosphorylation at tyrosine 892 within the PPxY motif may regulate c-Src interactions with beta-dystroglycan, as well as inhibit interactions with WW domain proteins. In skeletal muscle, beta-dystroglycan is normally localized to the plasma membrane, however phosphorylation of Tyr-892 leads to localization of beta-dystroglycan to endosomal compartments along with c-Src. Thus, phosphorylation at Tyr-892 may have important roles in altering the localization of beta-dystroglycan during NMJ formation.
