other info1 :
Biological Significance: Drebrins (developmentally regulated brain proteins) are thought to be active in regulating the development and differentiation of neuronal tissue because they are expressed peculiarly in the course of development of neuronal tissues. Drebrin proteins are classified into an embryonic form (E) and an adult form (A) in mammals. The embryonic form is further classified into E1 and E2 in the chicken.
other info2 :
Immunogen: Drebrin antibody was raised in mouse using purified chicken drebrin E as the immunogen.

ncbi summary :
The protein encoded by this gene is a cytoplasmic actin-binding protein thought to play a role in the process of neuronal growth. It is a member of the drebrin family of proteins that are developmentally regulated in the brain. A decrease in the amount of this protein in the brain has been implicated as a possible contributing factor in the pathogenesis of memory disturbance in Alzheimer's disease. At least two alternative splice variants encoding different protein isoforms have been described for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
uniprot summary :
DBN1: a cytoplasmic actin-binding protein thought to play a role in the process of neuronal growth. It is a member of the drebrin family of proteins that are developmentally regulated in the brain. A decrease in the amount of this protein in the brain has been implicated as a possible contributing factor in the pathogenesis of memory disturbance in Alzheimer s disease. Expressed in brain neurons, heart, placenta, skeletal muscle, kidney and pancreas. Two alternatively spliced isoforms have been described. Protein type: Cytoskeletal; Motility/polarity/chemotaxis; Actin-binding. Chromosomal Location of Human Ortholog: 5q35.3. Cellular Component: cytoplasm; dendrite; gap junction; plasma membrane; actomyosin; cell cortex; actin cytoskeleton. Molecular Function: protein binding; actin binding; profilin binding. Biological Process: maintenance of cellular protein localization; regulation of dendrite development; actin filament organization; regulation of neuronal synaptic plasticity
