Product Summary for TGF-alpha Antibody (SPM357) [CoraFluor™ 1]

Immunogen

A 17-amino acid synthetic peptide from the carboxyl-terminus of rat TGF-alpha (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

Description

CoraFluor(TM) 1 is a high performance terbium-based TR-FRET (Time-Resolved Fluorescence Resonance Energy Transfer) or TRF (Time-Resolved Fluorescence) donor for high throughput assay development. CoraFluor(IM) 1 absorbs UV light at approximately 340 nm, and emits at approximately 490 nm, 545 nm, 585 nm and 620 nm. It is compatible with common acceptor dyes that absorb at the emission wavelengths of CoraFluor(TM) 1. CoraFluor(TM) 1 can be used for the development of robust and scalable TR-FRET binding assays such as target engagement, ternary complex, protein-protein interaction and protein quantification assays.

Background: TGF-alpha

Transforming growth factor alpha (TGFalpha) is an acid- and heat-stable 50 amino acid protein originally found in rodents and humans. TGFalpha is 33% homologous at the amino acid level to epidermal growth factor (EGF). TGFalpha binds to the EGF receptor, mediates tyrosine phosphorylation of the receptor and promotes anchorage-independent growth of normal rat fibroblasts in soft agar in the presence of transforming growth factor beta. TGFalpha is secreted by a variety of transformed cells and tumors, embryonic cells and some normal adult cells. TGFalpha bioactivity has been found in the urine of cancer patients. It has been suggested that it may act as an autocrine growth factor for the induction or maintenance of malignancy.
