General notes
This antibody clone [DM1A] is manufactured by Abcam.
Excellent as a protein loading control antibody. DM1A causes the 10 nm filaments to collapse into large lateral aggregates collecting in the cell periphery or tight juxtanuclear caps. It does not block microtubule assembly. It does not inhibit polymerisation or depolymerisation of platelet tubulin in vitro. It blocks (by 70-80%) the ability of tubulin dimers (with GppNHp bound) to promote a stable inhibition of adenylyl cyclase. See references for further information on the above.
