Integrin alpha 8 Antibody (481709) [CoraFluor™ 1] Summary

• Description: CoraFluor(TM) 1 is a high performance terbium-based TR-FRET (Time-Resolved Fluorescence Resonance Energy Transfer) or TRF (Time-Resolved Fluorescence) donor for high throughput assay development. CoraFluor(TM) 1 absorbs UV light at approximately 340 nm, and emits at approximately 490 nm, 545 nm, 585 nm and 620 nm. It is compatible with common acceptor dyes that absorb at the emission wavelengths of CoraFluor(TM) 1. CoraFluor(TM) 1 can be used for the development of robust and scalable TR-FRET binding assays such as target engagement, ternary complex, protein-protein interaction and protein quantification assays.

Background

ITGA8 is a gene that codes for a protein that functions in the genesis of kidneys and other organs by facilitating the recruitment of mesenchymal cells into epithelial structures as well as working as a neuronal receptor for TNC to regulate neurite outgrowth, and is made up of 1063 amino acids, weighs approximately 117 kDa. Studies are being conducted on several diseases and disorders including keratopathy, carcinoma, kidney disease, laryngitis, Parkinson's disease, glomerulonephritis, Alzheimer's disease, melanoma, hepatitis, and neuronitis. ITGA8 has also been shown to have interactions with FN1, ITGB1, ITGA3, NPNT, and VNT in pathways such as the CDK5, Tec kinases signaling, integrin-mediated cell adhesion, signal transduction, and hypertrophic cardiomyopathy pathways.
