    Description

    This antibody needs to be stored at + 4°C in a fridge short term in a concentrated dilution. Freeze thaw will destroy a percentage in every cycle and should be avoided.

    About

    Polyclonals can be used for Western blot, immunohistochemistry on frozen slices or parrafin fixed tissues. The advantage is that there are more epitopes available in a polyclonal antiserum to detect the proteins than in monoclonal sera.

    Cross Reactive Species details

    No significant cross reactivity has been observed for this antibody for the tested species. However, note that due to limited knowledge it is impossible to predict with 100% guarantee that the antibody does not corss react with any other species.

    Advisory

    Avoid freeze/thaw cycles as they may denaturate the polypeptide chains of the antibody, thus reducing its reactivity, specificity and sensitivity. For antibodies that are in liquid form or reconstituted lyophilized antibodies small amounts could become entrapped on the seal or the walls of the tube. Prior to use briefly centrifuge the vial to gather all the solution on the bottom.

    Background information

    Gas2 is a 313 amino acid protein encoded by the human gene GAS2. Gas2 is thought to play a role in apoptosis by acting as a cell death substrate for caspases. Gas2, a component of the microfilament system, is cleaved by a caspase (caspase-3 and caspase-7) at Asparagine 278 during apoptosis. The cleaved form resulting from this dramatically induces the rearrangement of the Actin cytoskeleton and causes potent changes in the shape of the affected cells. Gas2 is believed to also be involved in the membrane ruffling process. During the G0-G1 transition phase Gas2 can be found phosphorylated on its serine residues. Gas2 is a cytoskeleton and peripheral membrane protein that co-localizes with Actin fibers at the cell border and along the stress fibers in growth-arrested fibroblasts. Gas2 is mainly membrane-associated but when hyperphosphorylated it will accumulate at membrane ruffles. Gas2 is specifically expressed at growth arrest and is ubiquitously expressed with highest levels found in liver, lung and kidney. There is no evidence, however, of Gas2 expression in spleen.
