TIM-1 was first identified as the receptor used by hepatitis A for viral entry (it is also known as the hepatitis A virus cellular receptor- HAVCR). TIM-1 is a key cell surface protein that binds TIM-4, leading to T cell proliferation and T helper type 2 (Th2) cytokine production. TIM-1 has also been shown to bind and activate macrophages. Two splice variants for human TIM-1 exist, TIM-1a is predominantly expressed in the liver, whilst TIM-1b is expressed in the kidney. Expression of TIM-1 in the kidney is thought to be upregulated in damaged tissue, and is thought to assist healing. TIM-1 polymorphisms are associated with asthma. Applications: Suitable for use in FLISA and Western Blot. Other applications not tested. Recommended Dilutions: Western Blot: detects a band of ~49kD in human uterus tissue lysate. Optimal dilutions to be determined by the researcher. Storage and Stability: Store product at 4C if to be used immediately within two weeks. For long-term storage, aliquot to avoid repeated freezing and thawing and store at -20C. Aliquots are stable at -20C for 12 months after receipt. Dilute required amount only prior to immediate use. Further dilutions can be made in assay buffer. Caution: FITC conjugates are sensitive to light. For maximum recovery of product, centrifuge the original vial after thawing and prior to removing the cap. Note: Applications are based on unconjugated antibody.
