Zielbeschreibung
Integrin beta-1 (UniProt: P05556; also known as Fibronectin receptor subunit beta, Glycoprotein IIa, GPIIA, VLA-4 subunit beta, CD29) is encoded by the ITGB1 (also known as FNRB, MDF2, MSK12) gene (Gene ID: 3688) in human. Integrins are heterodimeric integral membrane proteins composed of a variable α-subunit and a conserved β-subunit that function in cell surface adhesion and signaling. They contain a large extracellular domain responsible for ligand binding, a single transmembrane domain, and a cytoplasmic domain. The exact combination of various α and β-subunits dictates the binding specificity of integrins to different ECM components. Although both subunits are required for adhesion, the binding specificity primarily depends on the extracellular portion of the α-subunit. Integrin β1 is a single-pass type I membrane glycoprotein that associates with one of the a subunits to form receptor for fibronectin. It recognizes the sequence R-G-D in a wide array of ligands. Five isoforms of integrin β1 have been described that are produced by alternative splicing. Integrin β1 is synthesized with a signal peptide (aa 1-20) that is subsequently cleaved off. The mature form has an extracellular domain (aa 21-728), a helical domain (aa 729-751) and a cytoplasmic region (aa 752-798). Isoform 1 of integrin β1 is widely expressed and other isoforms are generally co-expressed with a more restricted distribution. Isoform 2 is expressed in skin, liver, skeletal muscle, cardiac muscle, placenta, umbilical vein endothelial cells, neuroblastoma cells, lymphoma cells, hepatoma cells and astrocytoma cells. Isoform 3 and isoform 4 are expressed in muscle, kidney, liver, placenta, cervical epithelium, umbilical vein endothelial cells, fibroblast cells, embryonal kidney cells, platelets, and several blood cell lines. Isoform 4 is selectively expressed in peripheral T-cells and isoform 5 is expressed specifically in striated muscle (skeletal and cardiac muscle). Isoform 2 is reported to interfere with isoform 1 resulting in a dominant negative effect on cell adhesion and migration (in vitro). (Ref.: Balcaz, A., et al. (1993). J. Cell Biol. 121(1); 171-178; Altruda, F., et al. (1990). Gene. 95(2); 261-266).
Physikalische Form
Purified recombinant mouse monoclonal antibody IgG, lyophilized in PBS, 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.
Rekonstituierung
0.3 mg/mL after reconstitution at 25 µL per vial. Please refer to guidance on suggested starting dilutions and/or titers per application and sample type.
Lagerung und Haltbarkeit
Recommend storage of lyophilized product at 2-8°C; 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°C, or -20°C for long term storage. Avoid repeated freeze-thaws.
