Description |
Integrins are cell-surface proteins with important roles in cell adhesion, migration and cell surface mediated signalling. The integrin family contains at least 18 alpha and 8 beta subunits that form alpha/beta heterodimers. The integrin alpha-4 subunit is also known as CD49D. It associates with either beta-1 or beta-7 subunits to form receptors for fibronectin and VCAM1. |

Antigen |
A synthetic peptide corresponding to a region (1014-1032 aa) from human Integrin alpha-4. To enhance the immunological response, this peptide was coupled to carrier protein BSA. |
Other Names |
Integrin alpha-IV; VLA-4; CD49 antigen-like family member D; CD49d antigen; TGA4; CD49D; ITGA4; |
Accession |
P13612 ITA4_HUMAN; |
Produced in |
Rabbit |
Purity |
Affinity purified on antigen column |
Applications |
Immunohistochemistry (IHC). A concentration of 1.0 ug/mL is recommended to detect the protein in formalin fixed and paraffin embedded tissues. Heat mediated antigen retrieval is required. Biosensis recommends optimal dilutions/concentrations should be determined by the end user. |
Specificity |
The specificity of this antibody has been confirmed by IHC against the antigen. |
Cross-reactivity |
Human; rat; expected to react with mouse; |
