Anti-IL2RG Rabbit Polyclonal Antibody (Alexa Fluor® 488)

Supplier: Bioss

Interleukin 2 (IL2) receptor gamma chain (IL5212R gamma) is a cell surface glycoprotein expressed by a variety of leukocytes including T cells, B cells, NK cells, monocytes, macrophages, and neutrophils. IL2R gamma is also known as CD132, common cytokine receptor gamma chain, and gamma c. IL2R gamma forms complexes with other cell surface proteins including CD25 (IL2R alpha), CD122 (IL2R beta), CD124 (IL4R alpha), CD127 (IL7R), and others. IL2R gamma complexed with other cell surface proteins forms receptors for the cytokines IL2, IL4, IL7, IL9, and IL15. Acting through the IL2R gamma containing complexes, these cytokines regulate lymphocyte development and activation. Chemical cross linking experiments reveal that IL2R gamma is able to bind cytokines only when complexed with these other cell surface proteins. In addition to interacting with other cell surface glycoproteins, IL2R gamma associates with several cytoplasmic tyrosine kinases including JAK3 (Janus Kinase 3), JAK1, Syc, and Lyc. Cytokine binding to the IL2R gamma containing receptor complexes activates these tyrosine kinases. Once activated, these tyrosine kinases phosphorylate their associated receptors, creating docking sites for signaling molecules such as PI 3 kinase. The activated tyrosine kinases also phosphorylate downstream regulators including STAT3 (Signal Transducer and Activator of Transcription 3), STAT5, and STAT6. The various cytokines that bind to IL2R gamma containing receptor complexes exert their effects through unique repertoires of cytoplasmic signaling molecules. IL2, IL7, and IL9 exert their effects through cascades, which activate STAT3 and STAT5, while IL4 activates STAT6. IL2 and IL15 exert their effects through cascades, which activate the MAP kinase cascade. IL7 exerts its effects through a cascade that results in VDJ immunoglobulin gene rearrangement.

Anti-Serotonin receptor 3A/HTR3A Goat Polyclonal Antibody

Supplier: Thermo Scientific

The product of this gene belongs to the ligand-gated ion channel receptor superfamily. This gene encodes subunit A of the type 3 receptor for 5-hydroxytryptamine , a biogenic hormone that functions as a neurotransmitter, a hormone, and a mitogen. This receptor causes fast, depolarizing responses in neurons after activation. It appears that the heteromeric combination of A and B subunits is necessary to provide the full functional features of this receptor, since either subunit alone results in receptors with very low conductance and response amplitude. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been identified.

Anti-NR5A1 Rabbit Polyclonal Antibody

Supplier: Proteintech

Steroidogenic factor-1 (SF-1,STF-1), also known as NR5A1, regulates multiple genes involved in the adrenal and gonadal development and in the biosynthesis of a variety of hormones, including adrenal and gonadal steroids, anti-Mullerian hormone (AMH), and gonadotropins. SF-1 belongs to the fushi tarazu factor-1 (FTZ-F1) subfamily of orphan nuclear receptors. Initially identified as a tissue-specific transcriptional regulator of cytochrome P450 steroid hydroxylases, research studies of both global and tissue-specific knockout mice have demonstrated that SF-1 is required for the development of adrenal glands, gonads, ventromedial hypothalamus, and for the proper functioning of pituitary gonadotropes. Indeed, humans with mutations that render SF-1 transcriptionally inactive can present with testicular failure, ovarian failure, and adrenal insufficiency. Furthermore, dysregulation of SF-1 has been linked to diseases such as endometriosis and adrenocortical carcinoma.Like other nuclear hormone receptors, SF-1 has a modular domain structure composed of an N-terminal zinc finger DNA-binding domain, a ligand-binding domain, a C-terminal AF-2 activation domain, and a hinge region with AF-1-like activation activity. SF-1 also contains a fushi tarazu factor 1 box, which functions as an accessory DNA binding domain. SF-1 is primarily phosphorylated at Ser203, which is thought to enhance its transcriptional activity by promoting complex formation with transcriptional cofactors. In addition to phosphorylation at Ser203, SF-1 is subject to SUMO conjugation and acetylation at ε-amino groups of target lysine residues. Whereas SUMOylation represses SF-1 function, acetylation enhances its transcriptional activity.In the adult ovary, SF-1 localizes to theca/interstitial cells.

Anti-PLIN3 Goat Polyclonal Antibody

Supplier: Thermo Scientific

This antibody is predicted to react with mouse based on sequence homology. TIP47 (tail-interacting protein 47) is a member of PAT family of proteins (perilipin, ADRP, S3-12 and OXPAT) which plays a key role in the packaging/storage of neutral lipids and is required for mannose 6-phosphate receptors (M6PR) transport from endosomes to trans-Golgi network (TGN). TIP47 localizes in cytoplasm, endosome membrane as peripheral membrane protein towards cytoplasmic side, core of lipid bodies/ lipid droplet, in lipid sails and in the envelope, and it interacts with M6PR, IGF2R etc. via the cytoplasmic domain. As a cargo protein, TIP47 facilitates the delivery of M6PR from endosomes to TGN where it binds to cytoplasmic domains of cation-independent/-dependent M6PR and translocates to late endosomes by binding to Rab9 GTPase. Like other PAT family members, TIP47 associates with lipid droplets and influence insulin signaling as evidenced by combined knockout of ADRP /TIP47 leading to decreased insulin sensitivity. During HIV-1 infection, TIP47 acts as a cellular cofactor playing a part in Env incorporation, allowing the encounter and physical association between HIV-1 Gag and Env proteins during viral assembly process. TIP47 is identical to pregnancy-related placental tissue protein 17b (PP17b) and is overexpressed in cervical carcinoma patients wherein it is considered a serum tumor marker.

Anti-KCNQ4 Goat Polyclonal Antibody

Supplier: Thermo Scientific

The protein encoded by this gene forms a potassium channel that is thought to play a critical role in the regulation of neuronal excitability, particularly in sensory cells of the cochlea. The current generated by this channel is inhibited by M1 muscarinic acetylcholine receptors and activated by retigabine, a novel anti-convulsant drug. The encoded protein can form a homomultimeric potassium channel or possibly a heteromultimeric channel in association with the protein encoded by the KCNQ3 gene. Defects in this gene are a cause of nonsyndromic sensorineural deafness type 2 , an autosomal dominant form of progressive hearing loss. Two transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene.

Anti-PI3KCD Rabbit Polyclonal Antibody

Supplier: Thermo Scientific

Protein kinases are enzymes that transfer a phosphate group from a phosphate donor, generally the g phosphate of ATP, onto an acceptor amino acid in a substrate protein. By this basic mechanism, protein kinases mediate most of the signal transduction in eukaryotic cells, regulating cellular metabolism, transcription, cell cycle progression, cytoskeletal rearrangement and cell movement, apoptosis, and differentiation. With more than 500 gene products, the protein kinase family is one of the largest families of proteins in eukaryotes. The family has been classified in 8 major groups based on sequence comparison of their tyrosine (PTK) or serine/threonine (STK) kinase catalytic domains.

Anti-HLA-DPB1 Rabbit Polyclonal Antibody (Alexa Fluor® 488)

Supplier: Bioss

Binds peptides derived from antigens that access the endocytic route of antigen presenting cells (APC) and presents them on the cell surface for recognition by the CD4 T-cells. The peptide binding cleft accommodates peptides of 10-30 residues. The peptides presented by MHC class II molecules are generated mostly by degradation of proteins that access the endocytic route, where they are processed by lysosomal proteases and other hydrolases. Exogenous antigens that have been endocytosed by the APC are thus readily available for presentation via MHC II molecules, and for this reason this antigen presentation pathway is usually referred to as exogenous. As membrane proteins on their way to degradation in lysosomes as part of their normal turn-over are also contained in the endosomal/lysosomal compartments, exogenous antigens must compete with those derived from endogenous components. Autophagy is also a source of endogenous peptides, autophagosomes constitutively fuse with MHC class II loading compartments. In addition to APCs, other cells of the gastrointestinal tract, such as epithelial cells, express MHC class II molecules and CD74 and act as APCs, which is an unusual trait of the GI tract. To produce a MHC class II molecule that presents an antigen, three MHC class II molecules (heterodimers of an alpha and a beta chain) associate with a CD74 trimer in the ER to form a heterononamer. Soon after the entry of this complex into the endosomal/lysosomal system where antigen processing occurs, CD74 undergoes a sequential degradation by various proteases, including CTSS and CTSL, leaving a small fragment termed CLIP (class-II-associated invariant chain peptide). The removal of CLIP is facilitated by HLA-DM via direct binding to the alpha-beta-CLIP complex so that CLIP is released. HLA-DM stabilizes MHC class II molecules until primary high affinity antigenic peptides are bound. The MHC II molecule bound to a peptide is then transported to the cell membrane surface.

Anti-CALCA Mouse Monoclonal Antibody [clone: 6F10]

Anti-CALCA Mouse Monoclonal Antibody [clone: 6F10]

Supplier: Genetex

Procalcitonin (PCT) is a 116 amino acid residue peptide with molecular weight of about 13 kDa. The amino acid sequence of PCT was firstly described by Moullec et al. in 1984. It belongs to a group of related proteins including calcitonin gene-related peptides I and II, amylin, adrenomodulin and calcitonin (CAPA peptide family). PCT, like other peptides of CAPA family, appears from the common precursor pre-procalcitonin consisting of 141 amino acids by removal of 25 a.a.r. from N-terminus. PCT is produced normally in C-cells of the thyroid glands. It undergoes successive cleavages to form three molecules: N-terminal fragment (55 a.a.r.), calcitonin (32 a.a.r.) and katacalcin (21 a.a.r.). It has been shown that the level of PCT in serum increases significantly during an infection of bacterial origin (Assicot M, et al). Today PCT is considered to be one of the earliest and most specific markers of sepsis. However, several studies revealed that elevated PCT level in human blood could be detected not only in case of sepsis and infection, but also in cases of surgery, polytrauma, heat shock and cardiogenic shock (Meisner M. & Reinhart K). The importance of PCT measurements in combination with cTnT or cTnI during heart transplantation to predict an early graft failure has been proved(Potapov EV., et al).

Anti-RAF1 Rabbit Polyclonal Antibody

Anti-RAF1 Rabbit Polyclonal Antibody

Supplier: Prosci

Serine/threonine-protein kinase that acts as a regulatory link between the membrane-associated Ras GTPases and the MAPK/ERK cascade, and this critical regulatory link functions as a switch determining cell fate decisions including proliferation, differentiation, apoptosis, survival and oncogenic transformation. RAF1 activation initiates a mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) cascade that comprises a sequential phosphorylation of the dual-specific MAPK kinases (MAP2K1/MEK1 and MAP2K2/MEK2) and the extracellular signal-regulated kinases (MAPK3/ERK1 and MAPK1/ERK2). The phosphorylated form of RAF1 (on residues Ser-338 and Ser-339, by PAK1) phosphorylates BAD/Bcl2-antagonist of cell death at 'Ser-75'. Phosphorylates adenylyl cyclases: ADCY2, ADCY5 and ADCY6, resulting in their activation. Phosphorylates PPP1R12A resulting in inhibition of the phosphatase activity. Phosphorylates TNNT2/cardiac muscle troponin T. Can promote NF-kB activation and inhibit signal transducers involved in motility (ROCK2), apoptosis (MAP3K5/ASK1 and STK3/MST2), proliferation and angiogenesis (RB1). Can protect cells from apoptosis also by translocating to the mitochondria where it binds BCL2 and displaces BAD/Bcl2-antagonist of cell death. Regulates Rho signaling and migration, and is required for normal wound healing. Plays a role in the oncogenic transformation of epithelial cells via repression of the TJ protein, occludin (OCLN) by inducing the up-regulation of a transcriptional repressor SNAI2/SLUG, which induces down-regulation of OCLN. Restricts caspase activation in response to selected stimuli, notably Fas stimulation, pathogen-mediated macrophage apoptosis, and erythroid differentiation.

Anti-PRKCE Rabbit Polyclonal Antibody

Supplier: Thermo Scientific

Protein kinase C (PKC) is a family of serine- and threonine-specific protein kinases that can be activated by calcium and the second messenger diacylglycerol. PKC family members phosphorylate a wide variety of protein targets and are known to be involved in diverse cellular signaling pathways. PKC family members also serve as major receptors for phorbol esters, a class of tumor promoters. Each member of the PKC family has a specific expression profile and is believed to play a distinct role in cells. PKC epsilon is one of the PKC family members. This kinase has been shown to be involved in many different cellular functions, such as neuron channel activation, apoptosis, cardioprotection from ischemia, heat shock response, as well as insulin exocytosis. Knockout studies in mice suggest that this kinase is important for lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-mediated signaling in activated macrophages and may also play a role in controlling anxiety-like behavior.

Anti-TP53 Mouse Monoclonal Antibody (CF405S) [clone: Clone PAb122]

Supplier: Biotium

PAb122 binds to the C-terminus (aa370-378) of both wild type and mutated p53. When microinjected into nuclei, PAb122 blocked re-entry into the S-phase of the cell cycle. Mutation and/or allelic loss of p53 is one of the causes of a variety of mesenchymal and epithelial tumors. If it occurs in the germ line, such tumors run in families. p53 Binds to a DNA consensus sequence, the p53 response element, and it regulates normal cell growth cycle events by activating transcription of genes, involved either in progression through the cycle, or causing arrest in G1 when the genome is damaged. In most transformed and tumor cells the concentration of p53 is increased 51000 fold over the minute concentrations (1000 molecules cell) in normal cells, principally due to the increased half-life (4 h) compared to that of the wild-type (20 min). p53 Localizes in the nucleus, but is detectable at the plasma membrane during mitosis and when certain mutations modulate cytoplasmic/nuclear distribution. p53 Is the most commonly mutated gene in spontaneously occurring human cancers. Mutations arise with an average frequency of 70% but incidence varies from zero in carcinoid lung tumors to 97% in primary melanomas. High concentrations of p53 protein are transiently expressed in human epidermis and superficial dermal fibroblasts following mild ultraviolet irradiation.

Anti-NANOG Rabbit Polyclonal Antibody

Supplier: Thermo Scientific

NANOG is a Ttranscription regulator involved in inner cell mass and embryonic stem (ES) cels proliferation and self-renewal. It imposes pluripotency on ES cells and prevents their differentiation towards extraembryonic endoderm and trophectoderm lineages. This protein blocks bone morphogenetic protein-induced mesoderm differentiation of ES cells by physically interacting with SMAD1 and interfering with the recruitment of coactivators to the active SMAD transcriptional complexes. NANOG acts as a transcriptional activator or repressor. It binds optimally to the DNA consensus sequence 5'-[CG][GA][CG]C[GC]ATTAN[GC]-3'. When overexpressed, this protein promotes cells to enter into S phase and proliferation.

Anti-TNFRSF1A Rabbit Polyclonal Antibody

Supplier: Thermo Scientific

A member of the TNF-receptor superfamily, this protein is one of the major receptors for the tumor necrosis factor-alpha. This receptor can activate NF-kappaB, mediate apoptosis, and function as a regulator of inflammation. Antiapoptotic protein BCL2-associated athanogene 4 (BAG4/SODD) and adaptor proteins TRADD and TRAF2 have been shown to interact with this receptor, and thus play regulatory roles in the signal transduction mediated by the receptor. Germline mutations of the extracellular domains of this receptor were found to be associated with the autosomal dominant periodic fever syndrome. The impaired receptor clearance is thought to be a mechanism of the disease.

Anti-STK11 Rabbit Polyclonal Antibody (Cy3®)

Supplier: Bioss

Tumor suppressor serine/threonine-protein kinase that controls the activity of AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) family members, thereby playing a role in various processes such as cell metabolism, cell polarity, apoptosis and DNA damage response. Acts by phosphorylating the T-loop of AMPK family proteins, thus promoting their activity: phosphorylates PRKAA1, PRKAA2, BRSK1, BRSK2, MARK1, MARK2, MARK3, MARK4, NUAK1, NUAK2, SIK1, SIK2, SIK3 and SNRK but not MELK. Also phosphorylates non-AMPK family proteins such as STRADA, PTEN and possibly p53/TP53. Acts as a key upstream regulator of AMPK by mediating phosphorylation and activation of AMPK catalytic subunits PRKAA1 and PRKAA2 and thereby regulates processes including: inhibition of signaling pathways that promote cell growth and proliferation when energy levels are low, glucose homeostasis in liver, activation of autophagy when cells undergo nutrient deprivation, and B-cell differentiation in the germinal center in response to DNA damage. Also acts as a regulator of cellular polarity by remodeling the actin cytoskeleton. Required for cortical neuron polarization by mediating phosphorylation and activation of BRSK1 and BRSK2, leading to axon initiation and specification. Involved in DNA damage response: interacts with p53/TP53 and recruited to the CDKN1A/WAF1 promoter to participate in transcription activation. Able to phosphorylate p53/TP53; the relevance of such result in vivo is however unclear and phosphorylation may be indirect and mediated by downstream STK11/LKB1 kinase NUAK1. Also acts as a mediator of p53/TP53-dependent apoptosis via interaction with p53/TP53: translocates to the mitochondrion during apoptosis and regulates p53/TP53-dependent apoptosis pathways. In vein endothelial cells, inhibits PI3K/Akt signaling activity and thus induces apoptosis in response to the oxidant peroxynitrite (in vitro). Regulates UV radiation-induced DNA damage response mediated by CDKN1A.

Anti-GSTM3 Rabbit Polyclonal Antibody

Anti-GSTM3 Rabbit Polyclonal Antibody

Supplier: Prosci

Cytosolic and membrane-bound forms of glutathione S-transferase are encoded by two distinct supergene families. At present, eight distinct classes of the soluble cytoplasmic mammalian glutathione S-transferases have been identified: alpha, kappa, mu, omega, pi, sigma, theta and zeta. GSTM3 is a glutathione S-transferase that belongs to the mu class. The mu class of enzymes functions in the detoxification of electrophilic compounds, including carcinogens, therapeutic drugs, environmental toxins and products of oxidative stress, by conjugation with glutathione. The genes encoding the mu class of enzymes are organized in a gene cluster on chromosome 1p13.3 and are known to be highly polymorphic. These genetic variations can change an individual's susceptibility to carcinogens and toxins as well as affect the toxicity and efficacy of certain drugs. Mutations of this class mu gene have been linked with a slight increase in a number of cancers, likely due to exposure with environmental toxins.Cytosolic and membrane-bound forms of glutathione S-transferase are encoded by two distinct supergene families.

Anti-LAMC1 Rat Monoclonal Antibody (CF568) [clone: A5]

Supplier: Biotium

Laminins are large hetero-trimeric, non-collagenous glycoproteins composed of α, β, and γ chains. This MAb reacts with laminin B2/1 chain of ~210 kDa and does not cross-react with other basement membrane components or fibronectin. Its specificity was established by immunoprecipitation and immunofluorescence of human skeletal muscle and kidney with laminin chain-specific MAbs. Epithelial sheets in vivo are separated from the mesenchymal elements of the stroma by a thin layer of a specialized type of extracellular matrix termed the basement membrane (BM). This structure consists of individual components, some of which are ubiquitous in BMs and some are not. The ubiquitous ones comprise laminin (LN), entactin/nidogen (EN), collagen type IV (CIV), and large heparan sulfate proteoglycan (HSPG), which interact specifically with each other to form a continuous and regular BM. Alterations of BM integrity, from local discontinuities up to complete loss, are described in many types of human and animal epithelial neoplasms. This MAb stains uniformly all human and murine basement membranes.

Anti-SUMO2 & SUMO3 Mouse Monoclonal Antibody (CF647) [clone: SM23/496]

Supplier: Biotium

This MAb reacts with both SUMO-2 and SUMO-3. The small ubiquitin-related modifier (SUMO) proteins, which include SUMO-1, 2 and 3, belong to the ubiquitin-like protein family. Like ubiquitin, the SUMO proteins are synthesized as precursor proteins that undergo processing before conjugation to target proteins. Also, both utilize the E1, E2 and E3 cascade enzymes for conjugation. However, SUMO and ubiquitin differ with respect to targeting. Ubiquitination predominantly targets proteins for degradation, whereas sumoylation targets proteins to a variety of cellular processing, including nuclear transport, transcriptional regulation, apoptosis and protein stability. The unconjugated SUMO-1, 2 and 3 proteins localize to the nuclear membrane, nuclear bodies and cytoplasm, respectively. SUMO-1 utilizes Ubc9 for conjugation to several target proteins, which include MDM2, p53, PML and RanGap1. SUMO-2 and 3 contribute to a greater percentage of protein modification than does SUMO-1 and unlike SUMO-1, they can form polymeric chains. In addition, SUMO-3 regulates beta-Amyloid generation and may be critical in the onset or progression of Alzheimer’s disease.
