Storage

Water buffered solution containing 100ug/ml BSA, 50% glycerol and 0.09% sodium azide. Store at 4°C for 12 months.

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

Betacellulin (BTC), a member of the epidermal growth factor (EGF) family, was originally identified as a growth-promoting factor in the conditioned medium of a mouse pancreatic-cell carcinoma (insulinoma) cell line and has since been identified in humans. BTC is synthesized as a large transmembrane precursor molecule that can be cleaved proteolytically to release the soluble form of BTC or function as membrane-anchored growth factors in juxtacrine signaling. BTC, in addition to stimulating homodimers of ErbB-1 and ErbB-4, is capable of binding and activating all possible combinations of heterodimeric ErbB receptors including the oncogenic ErbB-2/ErbB-3 complex. BTC is also expressed in some human malignancies and may have an important role in tumor growth progression.
