Anti-DNAL1 antibodies are used in the immunodetection of the protein dynein axonemal light chain 1. In humans, the canonical protein has a reported length of 190 amino acid residues and a mass of 21.5 kDa. Its subcellular localization is in the cytoplasm. Up to 3 different isoforms have been reported for this protein. It is reported to be expressed in tissues carrying motile cilia such as respiratory epithelia, ependyma and testis. A member of the Dynein light chain LC1-type protein family, DNAL1 is known to be a part of the multisubunit axonemal ATPase complexes that generate the force for cilia motility and govern beat frequency (By similarity). The DNAL1 gene has been associated with the disease, Ciliary dyskinesia. DNAL1 gene orthologs have been reported in the mouse, rat, bovine, frog, zebrafish, chimpanzee and chicken species. Western Blot is the most common application for the DNAL1 antibodies listed below. ELISA, Immunocytochemistry, Immunofluorescence, and Immunohistochemistry are also common applications.
