Anti-Ephexin-1 (C-terminal region) Antibody

DETAILS

Form: Antigen Affinity Purified
Gene: NGEF
Host: Rabbit
Rrid: AB_2152278
Type: Primary Antibody
Buffer: PBS + 1 mg/ml BSA, 0.05% NaN3 and 50% glycerol
Target: Ephexin-1 (C-terminal region)
Isotype: IgG
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.
Shipping: Blue Ice
Synonyms: EphA, Eph, NGEF
Clonality: Rabbit Polyclonal
Immunogen: Ephexin-1 synthetic peptide (coupled to carrier protein) corresponds to amino acids in the C-terminal region of mouse ephexin-1. This sequence has significant homology to the same region in human and rat ephexin-1, and has low homology to other known proteins.
Expiration: After date of receipt, stable for at least 1 year at -20°C.
Specificity: The antibody detects an 80 kDa* band corresponding to ephexin-1 in Western blots of human A431, Jurkat, and HUVEC cells, as well as rat PC12 cells and mouse brain tissue.
Applications: WB, ICC
Conjugate Exem: Unconjugated
Physical State: Liquid
Quality Control: Western blots performed on each lot.

Target Description: The Eph family of receptor tyrosine kinases, and their ephrin ligands, are important for cell positioning and morphogenesis during development. EphA4 receptor can inhibit axon outgrowth and has roles in regulating axon projections during neural development. Eph signaling pathways require both receptor kinase activity and activation of Rho-GTPase guanine nucleotide-exchange factors (GEFs). Ephexin-1 is a Dbl family GEF that may be important for regulating Rho GTPase activity downstream of EphA4/FGFR complexes. EphA4 activation leads to Src kinase phosphorylation of Tyr-87 in ephexin-1, which enhances activation of RhoA, but not Rac1 or Cdc42. In addition, ephexin-1 also binds FGFRs, and is phosphorylated at Tyr-87, as well as other tyrosine sites.
