Napsin A has a specific function in normal alveolar epithelium and is proposed to play a role in the proteolytic processing of surfactant precursors. Napsin A is reported to be predominantly expressed in lamellar bodies of type II pneumocytes, secondary lysosomes of alveolar macro-phages, respiratory epithelium of terminal and respiratory bronchioles, plasma cells, within a subset of lymphocytes in normal lung as well as in epithelial cells of renal tubules in normal kidney and is weakly expressed in normal spleen. Past studies have also reported that Napsin A is expressed in the majority of primary lung adenocarcinomas.

RUO*

Antigen Background The myotilin gene on chromosome 5q31 encodes a 498 amino acid polypeptide with a molecular weight of 57 kD. Myotilin is a structural protein of sarcomeric Z discs and sarcolemma in human skeletal and cardiac muscle. It is homologous to palladin and titin in the two C-terminal Ig-domains and also to palladin in its unique serine-rich N-terminal region. Myotilin interacts with alpha-actinin, actin and gamma-filamin. A missense mutation in the myotilin gene is associated with limb-girdle muscular dystrophy 1A (LGMD1A), an autosomal dominant disease characterized by proximal limb weakness. It is highly conserved between human and mouse with its expression being more widespread in the embryo than in the adult. Expression of myotilin has been reported in adult skeletal and cardiac muscle with variable expression reported in the peripheral nervous system, lung, liver and kidney.
