IHC (Immunohiostchemistry)
(AAA327211 at 1/100 staining Mouse kidney tissue by IHC-P. The sample was formaldehyde fixed and a heat mediated antigen retrieval step in citrate buffer was performed. The sample was then blocked and incubated with the antibody for 1.5 hours at 22 degree C. An HRP conjugated goat anti-rabbit antibody was used as the secondary.)

Function: Mitochondrial outer membrane GTPase that mediates mitochondrial clustering and fusion (PubMed:12475957, PubMed:12759376, PubMed:27920125, PubMed:28114303). Membrane clustering requires GTPase activity (PubMed:27920125). It may involve a major rearrangement of the coiled coil domains (PubMed:27920125, PubMed:28114303). Mitochondria are highly dynamic organelles, and their morphology is determined by the equilibrium between mitochondrial fusion and fission events (PubMed:12475957, PubMed:12759376). Overexpression induces the formation of mitochondrial networks (in vitro) (PubMed:12759376). Has low GTPase activity (PubMed:27920125, PubMed:28114303).
Subunit Structure: Homodimer, also in the absence of bound GTP (PubMed:27920125, PubMed:28114303). Forms higher oligomers in the presence of a transition state GTP analog (PubMed:28114303). Forms homomultimers and heteromultimers with MFN2 (By similarity). Oligomerization is essential for mitochondrion fusion (PubMed:27920125, PubMed:28114303). Component of a high molecular weight multiprotein complex (PubMed:12759376). Interacts with VAT1 (By similarity).
Post-translational Modifications: Ubiquitinated by non-degradative ubiquitin by PRKN (PubMed:23933751). Deubiquitination by USP30 inhibits mitochondrial fusion (By similarity). Ubiquitinated by MARCH5 (PubMed:20103533). When mitochondria are depolarized and dysfunctional, it is ubiquitinated by a SCF (SKP1-CUL1-F-box protein) E3 ubiquitin-protein ligase complex that contains FBXO7 and PRKN (PubMed:23933751).
Similarity: A helix bundle is formed by helices from the N-terminal and the C-terminal part of the protein. The GTPase domain cannot be expressed by itself, without the helix bundle. Rearrangement of the helix bundle and/or of the coiled coil domains may bring membranes from adjacent mitochondria into close contact, and thereby play a role in mitochondrial fusion. Belongs to the TRAFAC class dynamin-like GTPase superfamily. Dynamin/Fzo/YdjA family. Mitofusin subfamily.

Product Notes
The MFN1 mfn1 (Catalog #AAA327211) is an Antibody produced from Rabbit and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The Mitofusin Antibody reacts with Human, Mouse, Rat and may cross-react with other species as described in the data sheet. AAA Biotech's Mitofusin can be used in a range of immunoassay formats including, but not limited to, ELISA, IHC (Immunohistochemistry), WB (Western Blot). Researchers should empirically determine the suitability of the MFN1 mfn1 for an application not listed in the data sheet. Researchers commonly develop new applications and it is an integral, important part of the investigative research process. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "Mitofusin, Polyclonal Antibody" to become dispersed throughout the inside of the vial, particularly around the seal of said vial, during shipment and storage. We always suggest centrifuging these vials to consolidate all of the liquid away from the lid and to the bottom of the vial prior to opening. Please be advised that certain products may require dry ice for shipping and that, if this is the case, an additional dry ice fee may also be required.Precautions
