Filensin Antibody

Filensin, also known as beaded filament structure protein 1, have two major component BFSP1 and BESP2. Filensin gene is mapped at 20p12.1-p11.23. The sequence of the predicted 665-amino acid human protein is 62% and 50% identical to those of bovine and chicken filensin, respectively. However, it has less than 26% identity to other members of the intermediate filament(IF) family.
