Scientific Data Images for Human TGF-beta  RI/ALK-5 Antibody

Detection of Human TGF-beta  RI/ALK-5 antibody by Western Blot.

Detection of Human TGF-beta RI/ALK-5 by Western Blot.

Western blot shows lysates of HeLa human cervical epithelial carcinoma cell line, HepG2 human hepatocellular carcinoma cell line, and Raji human Burkitt's lymphoma cell line. PVDF membrane was probed with 0.2 µg/mL of Goat Anti-Human TGF-beta RI/ALK-5 Antigen Affinity-purified Polyclonal Antibody (Catalog # AF3025) followed by HRP-conjugated Anti-Goat IgG Secondary Antibody (Catalog # HAF019). Specific bands were detected for TGF-beta RI/ALK-5 at approximately 50 & 56 kDa (as indicated). This experiment was conducted under reducing conditions and using Immunoblot Buffer Group 1.
TGF-beta  RI/ALK-5 antibody in Human PBMCs by Immunocytochemistry (ICC).

TGF-beta RI/ALK‑5 in Human PBMCs.

TGF-beta RI/ALK-5 was detected in immersion fixed human peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) stimulated with LPS and monensin using Goat Anti-Human TGF-beta RI/ALK-5 Antigen Affinity-purified Polyclonal Antibody (Catalog # AF3025) at 10 µg/mL for 3 hours at room temperature. Cells were stained using the NorthernLights™ 557-conjugated Anti-Goat IgG Secondary Antibody (yellow; Catalog # NL001) and counter-stained with DAPI (blue).

Detection of Porcine TGF-beta RI/ALK-5 by Western Blot

Detection of Porcine TGF-beta RI/ALK-5 by Western Blot

Myostatin signaling in longissimus dorsi muscle of low-birth-weight (LBWT) and normal-birth-weight (NBWT) neonatal pigs. (A): Representative western blots from four pairs of LBWT and NBWT pigs (N, NBWT; L, LBWT). (B–G): Protein abundance of myostain, ALK5 and ActRIIB, and protein abundance phosphorylation of smad2/3. Abundance was normalized to alpha-tubulin and phosphorylation normalized to the corresponding non-phospho-proteins. Results are means ± SE. n = 12. Values with different letters differ significantly (P ≤ 0.05). Image collected and cropped by CiteAb from the following publication (https://journal.frontiersin.org/article/10.3389/fphys.2017.00482/full), licensed under a CC-BY license.

Background: TGF-beta RI/ALK-5

TGF-beta RI, also known as activin-like kinase 5 (ALK-5), is a 55 kDa type I transmembrane serine/threonine receptor kinase. It is ubiquitously expressed and forms a functional heterotetrameric signaling TGF-beta receptor complex with TGF-beta RII. The amino acid sequence of human TGF-beta RI extracellular domain is 91%, 90%, 91%, and 93% identical to that of porcine, mouse, bovine, and rat TGF-beta RI, respectively.
