DATASHEET

Host: Mouse

Target Protein: Integrin β1 (Extracellular region)

Specificity: Clone M004 detects 120-150 kDa* bands corresponding to Integrin β1 on SDS-PAGE immunoblots of native human A431, A549, MDA-MB-231, and LNCaP cell lysates.

Clonality: Monoclonal

Isotype: IgG1

Swiss Prot: P05556

Source: Clone M004 was generated from a proprietary antigen related to the extracellular region of human integrin β1 in complex with integrin α expressed in the A431 epidermoid carcinoma cell line.

Purification: Purified by Protein G.

Storage Buffer: PBS + 1 mg/ml BSA, 0.05% NaN3 and 50% glycerol

Storage: Storage at -20°C is recommended, as aliquots may be taken without freeze/thawing due to presence of 50% glycerol. Stable for at least 1 year at -20°C.

Background:

Integrins are cell adhesion molecules that can mediate bidirectional transfer of signals across the plasma membrane. The cytoplasmic domains of integrin family members interact with components of the signal transduction apparatus within cells. Integrin receptors contain noncovalently associated α and β subunits that consist of a large extracellular region (the ligand-binding domain), a short transmembrane region, and a cytoplasmic domain of varying length. In mammals, at least 17 α subunits and 8 β subunits have been identified and these proteins can heterodimerize to form at least 22 different receptors. The integrin β2 subunit associates with integrin αL to form a receptor for ICAM family members. Integrin β2/αL is involved in a variety of immune phenomena including leukocyte-endothelial cell interaction, cytotoxic T-cell mediated killing, and antibody dependent killing by granulocytes and monocytes.
