Extra Details:
Anti-EGFR Antibody is ideal for Western Blotting, ELISA and IHC. EGFR is a transmembrane glycoprotein that is a member of a family of protein tyrosine kinases crucial in maintaining a normal balance in cell growth and development. Growth factor receptors are involved not only in promoting the proliferation of normal cells but also in the aberrant growth of many types of human tumors. For example, the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) is mutated and/or overexpressed in many common solid human squamous cell carcinomas including breast, brain, bladder, lung, gastric, head & neck, esophagus, cervix, vulva, ovary, and endometrium. Over-expression of the EGFR gene occurs in carcinomas with and without gene amplification. EGFR and erbB-2 are particularly important in breast cancer because increased production or activation has been associated with poor prognosis. EGFR belongs to a family of growth factor receptors, which also includes ErbB-2/HER-2/neu, ErbB-3/HER-3/neu and ErbB-4/HER-4neu. EGFR can heterodimerize with each of the members of this family.
Formulation:
0.02 M Potassium Phosphate, 0.15 M Sodium Chloride, pH 7.2
Host:
Rabbit
Immunogen:
This affinity purified antibody was prepared from whole rabbit serum produced by repeated immunizations with a synthetic peptide corresponding to the C-Terminus near amino acids 1175-1200 of human EGFR protein.
Isotype:
IgG
Physical State:
Liquid
Reactivities:
Human
Shipping Conditions:
Dry Ice
Specificity:
EGFR Antibody is directed against human epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) and is useful in determining its presence in ELISA and western blotting experiments. This antibody can detect EGFR from human, mouse and rat sources. Reactivity of this antibody with EGFR from other species is unknown.
Storage Conditions:
2-8[o]C Aliquot. Avoid freeze/thaw cycles. Store undiluted.

Type:
Antibody: Polyclonal Antibody
Western blot using Rockland's Affinity Purified anti-EGFR antibody shows detection of a band at ~170 kDa corresponding to human EGFR (arrowhead). Lane 1: unstimulated A431 whole cell lysate (p/n W09-000-361). Lane 2: EGF (50 ng/ml for 15 min) stimulated A431 whole cell lysates (p/n W09-000-362). Approximately 30ug of lysate was separated on a 4-20% Tris-Glycine gel by SDS-PAGE and transferred onto nitrocellulose. After blocking the membrane was probed with the primary antibody diluted to 1:1,000. Reaction occurred overnight at 4° C followed by washes and reaction with a 1:10,000 dilution of IRDye800 conjugated Gt-a-Rabbit IgG [H&L] MX (p/n 611-132-122) for 45 min at room temperature (800 nm channel, green). Molecular weight estimation was made by comparison to prestained MW markers in lane M (700 nm channel, red). IRDye800 fluorescence image was captured using the Odyssey® Infrared Imaging System developed by LI-COR. IRDye is a trademark of LI-COR, Inc. Other detection systems will yield similar results.
