Extra Details:
Suppressor of tumorigenicity 14 protein (ST14), also known as matriptase, is a type II transmembrane protease (1,2). It is highly expressed in epithelia cells and important for the differentiation and homeostasis of epithelium (3). ST14 is synthesized as a single-chain precursor, and cleaved first at Gly149 in endoplasmic reticulum or Golgi. The resulting N-terminal and C-terminal fragments are non-covalently associated, and interact with hepatocyte growth factor activator inhibitor 1 (HAI-1), which facilitates the transportation of ST14 to the plasma membrane. Cell surface ST14 can be activated by autocleavage at Arg614 though an incompletely understood mechanism. HAI-1 inhibits activated ST14, and HAI-1 and ST14 complex can be shed from cell surface (4,5). In different context, ST14 has been reported either as a tumor suppressor or as a tumor promoter (6-8). Applications: Suitable for use in Western Blot. Other applications not tested. Recommended Dilution: Western Blot: 1:1000, incubate membrane with diluted primary antibody in 5% BSA, 1X TBS, 0.1% Tween-20 at 4°C with gentle shaking, overnight. 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. For maximum recovery of product, centrifuge the original vial after thawing and prior to removing the cap.
