Antibodies used to detect dystrophin

(last modified May 1, 2001)

The antibodies listed below are a collection of all those we have found in literature. When you notice that we have missed antibodies, when you detect mistakes or when you can give additional information, please please tell us. The list was collected with special thanks to Poala van de Bent in our laboratory.

Dystrophin antibody links:

• University Newcastle upon Tyne: Dr. Louise V.B. Anderson
• North East Wales Institute of Higher Education (NEWI): Prof. Glenn E. Morris

Legend:
Antibody: name of antibody. Epitope: epitope of the antibody (usually the sequence used to raise the antibody), raised against a fp = fusion protein or syn = synthetic peptide; aa = amino acid. Type: type of antibody M = monoclonal or P = polyclonal. Species: antibody was raised in mouse, rabbit or unknown. IG-subtype: IG-subtype of the antibody (when known). Coupe: signal on tissue sections: + = clear signal, -  = no signal (chicken, human, mouse, rat, rabbit). Western: signal on Western blots; + = clear signal, - = no signal. Cross react: known cross reactivity. Supplier: supplier (when known).

Recently, Morris et al. published a paper entitled "An epitope structure for the C-terminal domain of dystrophin and utrophin", describing a detailed analysis of the MANDRA1-19 antibodies.
