Scientific BackgroundThe jagged 1 protein encoded by JAG1 is the human homolog of the Drosophilia jagged protein. Human jagged 1 is the ligand for multiple Notch receptors involved in the mediation of Notch signalling. It may be involved in cell-fate decision during hematopoiesis and seems to be involved in early and late stages of mammalian cardiovascular development. JAG1 is a trans membrane protein that is widely expressed in adult and fetal tissues. Mutations that alter the jagged 1 protein cause Alagille syndrome which is an autosomal dominant multisysstem disorder. Defects in JAG1 are also the cause of tetralogy of Fallot (TOF) which is a congenital heart anomaly.
Monoclonal antibody to human JAG1 [1E12], catalogue number M-800-200, detects a band of 35 kDa when used for WB detection against the antigen (partial recombinant human JAG1 with the GST tag). Note the GST tag alone has a molecular weight of 26 KDa.
