REACH authorisation
Abcam has not and does not intend to apply for the REACH Authorisation of customers' uses of products that contain European Authorisation list (Annex XIV) substances.
It is the responsibility of our customers to check the necessity of application of REACH Authorisation, and any other relevant authorisations, for their intended uses.
Lysate preparation:
Our lysates are made using RIPA buffer to which we add a protease inhibitor cocktail and phosphatase inhibitor cocktail (ratio: 300:100:10).
This means that the protein of interest is denatured.
If you require a native form of the protein please use the live cell version. Please refer to our lysis protocol for further details on how our lysates are prepared.
User storage instructions:
Lyophilizate may be stored at 4°C. After reconstitution, store at -20°C for short-term storage or -80°C for long-term storage.

CRIM1 also known as cysteine-rich motor neuron 1 protein has a molecular mass of around 110 kDa. As a transmembrane protein it localizes mainly to the endoplasmic reticulum. Researchers have detected its expression in various tissues including the retina kidneys brain and spinal cord. It contains a distinctive cysteine-rich motif and plays roles in cellular adhesion and growth factor regulation.
Biological function summary
The function of CRIM1 extends to the modulation of growth factor activity particularly by interacting with bone morphogenetic proteins (BMPs). This interaction suggests its potential involvement in developmental processes. Studies have indicated that CRIM1 might participate in forming protein complexes related to cell surface receptors influencing cell signaling pathways that govern growth and differentiation.
Pathways
CRIM1's involvement in BMP signaling and angiogenesis highlights its significance within these biological pathways. BMPs which are growth factors play a part in bone and cartilage development therefore CRIM1's regulatory action can affect these processes. Additionally CRIM1 interacts with proteins like noggin in the BMP pathway to modulate cellular responses to extracellular signals contributing to developmental and morphogenic outcomes.
CRIM1 links to congenital abnormalities and ocular disorders. Its known interaction with BMPs associates it with conditions like kidney dysplasia where the disruption of normal signaling can lead to organ malformations. In the context of eye development CRIM1's interaction with BMPs and noggin is important for retinal and lens development. Understanding CRIM1's role in these pathways could offer insights into therapeutic targets for congenital and degenerative diseases.
