Product Specifications
Immunogen
A 17-amino acid synthetic peptide from the carboxyl-terminus of rat TGF-alpha (exact sequence is proprietary) (Uniprot: P01135)
Localization
Cytoplasmic and Extracellular (secreted)
Specificity
This antibody reacts with the C-terminus of TGF alpha and shows no cross-reaction with EGF and the neuropeptide synenkephalin. The staining with Ab-1 is completely blocked by the peptide used for raising this antibody. TGF (aa50) is a growth factor with 33% homology to EGF, binds to EGFR, activates tyrosine phosphorylation of the receptor, and stimulates cell proliferation. It plays a role in tumor initiation by inducing the reversible transformed phenotype.
Clonality
Monoclonal
Host
Mouse
Isotype
IgG1 kappa
Theoretical MW
6 kDa.

Application
Recommended Usage
ELISA
2-4 ug/ml
Immunocytochemistry/ Immunofluorescence
1-2 ug/ml

Application Notes
ELISA: Use Ab at 2-4ug/ml for coating. Order Ab without BSA.
Immunohistochemistry (Formalin-fixed): 2-4ug/ml for 30 min at RT. Staining of formalin-fixed tissues requires heating tissue sections in 10mM Tris with 1mM EDTA, pH 9.0, for 45 min at 95C followed by cooling at RT for 20 minutes.
Optimal dilution for a specific application should be determined.
