Dysferlin (DYSF) is a membrane-associated protein encoded by the DYSF gene on chromosome 2p13.2 and is a member of the ferlin family of calcium-responsive membrane trafficking proteins. Dysferlin is localized primarily to the sarcolemma and cytoplasmic vesicular compartments of skeletal and cardiac muscle, where it functions in cellular membrane repair and maintenance of muscle fiber integrity. The DYSF Antibody is valuable for investigating muscle biology, membrane restoration mechanisms, and inherited muscular dystrophy disorders. Dysferlin is also referred to as FER1L1, and DYSF antibody research frequently focuses on its role in maintaining membrane stability following cellular injury.
DYSF antibody, also known as Dysferlin antibody and Miyoshi myopathy protein antibody, recognizes a large protein containing multiple C2 domains that mediate calcium-dependent interactions with phospholipid membranes. Following membrane damage, calcium influx rapidly activates Dysferlin-mediated repair processes. Dysferlin-containing vesicles are recruited to sites of injury where they participate in membrane patch formation and vesicle fusion events that restore plasma membrane continuity. This process is especially important in skeletal muscle because muscle fibers are routinely subjected to mechanical stress during contraction and movement.
In addition to its established role in membrane repair, Dysferlin contributes to vesicular trafficking, membrane remodeling, endocytosis, and organization of protein complexes associated with cellular architecture. The protein interacts with annexins and other membrane-associated factors involved in coordinating injury responses. These interactions help maintain tissue integrity and support recovery from mechanical damage. Dysferlin expression is particularly prominent in skeletal muscle fibers, although expression has also been reported in cardiac muscle, monocytes, macrophages, and additional cell populations involved in tissue maintenance and repair.
Mutations in DYSF are associated with several inherited neuromuscular disorders, including Limb-Girdle Muscular Dystrophy R2 and Miyoshi Myopathy. These diseases result from impaired membrane repair capacity, leading to progressive muscle degeneration and weakness. Consequently, Dysferlin has become an important biomarker in studies examining muscular dystrophy pathogenesis, regenerative medicine, and therapeutic intervention strategies designed to preserve muscle function.
DYSF antibody investigations continue to expand as researchers explore additional functions of Dysferlin in inflammatory responses, tissue regeneration, and membrane homeostasis. A DYSF antibody can support research involving muscular dystrophy, membrane repair biology, vesicle trafficking, and cellular adaptation to mechanical stress. General antibody-based approaches may be used to evaluate Dysferlin expression across a variety of research applications. NSJ Bioreagents offers this DYSF antibody to support studies of membrane integrity, muscle physiology, and disease-associated cellular pathways.

Optimal dilution of the DYSF Antibody / Dysferlin Membrane Repair Protein Antibody should be determined by the researcher.
An E. coli-derived human protein (amino acids E51-H747) was used as the immunogen for the DYSF antibody.
After reconstitution, the DYSF antibody can be stored for up to one month at 4oC. For long-term, aliquot and store at -20oC. Avoid repeated freezing and thawing.
