p150glued Antibody

p150glued is the largest subunit of dynactin, a macromolecular complex consisting of 10 subunits ranging in size from 22 to 150 kD. Dynactin binds to both microtubules and cytoplasmic dynein. Dynactin is involved in a diverse array of cellular functions, including ER-to-Golgi transport, the centripetal movement of lysosomes and endosomes, spindle formation, chromosome movement, nuclear positioning, and axonogenesis. The p150glued subunit interacts with dynein intermediate chain by its domains directly binding to dynein and binds to microtubules via a highly conserved glycine-rich cytoskeleton-associated protein (CAP-Gly) domain in its N-terminus [taken from NCBI Entrez Gene (Gene ID: 1639)].

Alternative names for p150glued Antibody include dynactin subunit 1 antibody, dynactin 1 antibody, DCTN1 antibody, 150 kDa dynein-associated polypeptide antibody.
