SYNONYMS
Coactosin-like protein, COTL1, CLP, FLJ43657, MGC19733.
INTRODUCTION
Coactosin-like protein (COTL1) is one of the numerous actin-binding proteins which regulate the actin cytoskeleton. COTL1 binds F-actin, it also interacts with 5-lipoxygenase, which is the first committed enzyme in leukotriene biosynthesis. COTL1 binds to F-actin in a calcium-independent way and has no direct effect on actin depolymerization.
DESCRIPTION
COTL1 Human Recombinant fused with a 20 amino acid His tag at N-terminus produced in E.Coli is a single, non-glycosylated, polypeptide chain containing 162 amino acids (1-142 a.a.) and having a molecular mass of 18.1kDa. The COTL1 is purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques.
