Anti-SMAD4 Antibody, clone 1C14 ZooMAb^® Rabbit Monoclonal

产品说明

一般描述

ZooMAb^® antibodies represent an entirely new generation of recombinant monoclonal antibodies.

Each ZooMAb^® antibody is manufactured using our proprietary recombinant expression system, purified to homogeneity, and precisely dispensed to produce robust and highly reproducible lot-to-lot consistency. Only top-performing clones are released for use by researchers. Each antibody is validated for high specificity and affinity across multiple applications, including its most commonly used application. ZooMAb^® antibodies are reliably available and ready to ship when you need them.

目标描述

Mothers against decapentaplegic homolog 4 (UniProt: Q13485; also known as MAD homolog 4, Mothers against DPP homolog 4, Deletion target in pancreatic carcinoma 4, SMAD family member 4, SMAD 4, Smad4, hSMAD4) is encoded by the SMAD4 (also known as DPC4, MADH4) gene (Gene ID: 4089) in human. SMAD proteins are signal transducers for the members of the transforming growth factor-b (TGF-b) superfamily. SMAD4 is a transcription factor that is involved in TGF-β signaling. In the absence of a ligand it is monomeric and is localized in the cytoplasm. Upon ligand binding it forms a heterotrimer with SMAD2 or SMAD3 and another molecule of SMAD4 to form the active complex that translocates to the nucleus. SMAD4 can undergo monoubiquitination on lysine 519 by E3 ubiquitin-protein ligase TRIM33 and this monoubiquitination hampers its ability to form a stable complex with activated SMAD2/3 resulting in inhibition of TGF-b signaling. Deubiquitination by USP9X is reported to restore its competence to mediate TGF-b signaling. As the main effector of TGF-β signaling, SMAD4 has been found to be non-functional in more than half of adenocarcinomas of the pancreatic duct and in colorectal cancers. This ZooMAb^® recombinant monoclonal antibody, generated by our propriety technology, offers significantly enhanced specificity, affinity, reproducibility, and stability over conventional monoclonals.

外形

Purified recombinant rabbit monoclonal antibody IgG, lyophilized in PBS with 5% Trehalose, normal appearance a coarse or translucent resin. The PBS/trehalose components in the ZooMAb formulation can have the appearance of a semi-solid (bead like gel) after lyophilization. This is a normal phenomenon. Please follow the recommended reconstitution procedure in the data sheet to dissolve the semi-solid, bead-like, gel-appearing material. The resulting antibody solution is completely stable and functional as proven by full functional testing. Contains no biocide or preservatives, such as azide, or any animal by-products. Larger pack sizes provided as multiples of 25 μL.

重悬

300 μg/mL after reconstitution at 25 μL per vial. Please refer to guidance on suggested starting dilutions and/or titers per application and sample type.

储存及稳定性

Recommend storage of lyophilized product at 2-8℃; Before reconstitution, micro-centrifuge vials briefly to spin down material to bottom of the vial; Reconstitute each vial by adding 25 μL of filtered lab grade water or PBS; Reconstituted antibodies can be stored at 2-8℃, or -20℃ for long term storage. Avoid repeated freeze-thaws.
