Extra Details:
von Hippel-Lindau (VHL) disease is a hereditary cancer with a predilection for the central nervous system and retina. The von Hippel-Lindau tumor suppressor gene is mutated in families with von Hippel-Lindau disease and encodes a protein (VHL) of 213 amino acids with an acidic pentapeptide motif in the N-terminus. Mutations in the VHL gene result in constitutive expression of many hypoxi-induced genes, at least in part because of increases in the cellular level of hypoxia-inducible transcription factor HIF-1α. VHL protein binds to elongin B, elongin C, and Cul2 to form a stable complex that targets hypoxia inducibal factors (HIFs) for degradation and transcriptional regulation. In addition, VHL protein has also been shown to interact with specific protein kinase C isoforms, histone deacetylases and HIF-1 inhibitor (FIH-1). α-VHL is an affinity-purified rabbit polyclonal antibody raised against the recombinant VHL protein. Applications: Suitable for use in ELISA, Western Blot. Other applications not tested. Recommended Dilution: Western Blot: 1:200-1:1000 Optimal dilutions to be determined by the researcher. Storage and Stability: May be stored at 4°C for short-term only. For long-term storage and to avoid repeated freezing and thawing, aliquot and add glycerol (40-50?. Freeze at -20°C. Aliquots are stable for at least 12 months at -20°C. For maximum recovery of product, centrifuge the original vial after thawing and prior to removing the cap. Further dilutions can be made in assay buffer.
