A 10-amino acid synthetic peptide (aa34-43, PPVAAAVVSH) from human TGF-alphaAlpha.
Alternative Names:
TGF-alpha
This antibody reacts with the TGF-alphaalpha and shows no cross-reaction with EGF and the neuropeptide synenkephalin. The staining with this MAb is completely blocked by the peptide used for raising this antibody. TGF-alpha(aa50) is a growth factor with 33% homology to EGF, binds to EGFR, activates tyrosine phosphorylation of the receptor, and stimulates cell proliferation. It plays a role in tumor initiation by inducing the reversible transformed phenotype.
Flow Cytometry (1-2ug/million cells), Immunofluorescence (1-2ug/ml), Immunohistochemistry (Formalin-fixed) (2-4ug/ml for 30 min at RT)(Staining of formalin-fixed tissues requires heating tissue sections in 10mM Tris with 1mM EDTA, pH 9.0, for 45 min at 95
