£460.00

SKU:: 314319
Purity:: Purified by Protein G affinity chromatography.
Storage Conditions:: -20°C
Supplier:: United States Biological
Host:: Rabbit
Immunogen:: Recombinant Echis carinatus Disintegrin EC3B protein
Format:: Supplied as a liquid in 0.01M PBS, pH 7.4, 0.03% Proclin 300, 50% glycerol.
Extra Details:: Inhibits adhesion of cells expressing alpha-4/beta-1 (ITGA4/ITGB1) and alpha-4/beta-7 (ITGA4/ITGB7) integrins to the natural ligands vascular cell adhesion molecule 1 (VCAM-1) and mucosal addressin cell adhesion molecule 1 (MADCAM-1). It is also a weaker inhibitor of alpha-5/beta-1 (ITGA5/ITGB1) and alpha-2b/beta-3 (ITGA2B/ITGB3) integrins. The inhibitory activity of EC3 towards alpha-4 integrins is associated with the MLD sequence of EC3B subunit. The ability of EC3 to inhibit ITGA5/ITGB1 resides in both subunits A and B. Applications: Suitable for use in ELISA and Western Blot. Other applications not tested. Recommended Dilution: Optimal dilutions to be determined by the researcher. Storage and Stability: May be stored at 4°C for short-term only. Aliquot to avoid repeated freezing and thawing. Store at -20°C. Aliquots are stable for 12 months after receipt. For maximum recovery of product, centrifuge the original vial after thawing and prior to removing the cap.
