Laminin alpha 1 Antibody [Unconjugated]

U2OS human osteosarcoma cell line was stained with Goat Anti-Human Laminin alpha 1 Antigen Affinity-Purified Polyclonal Antibody (Catalog # AF4187, filled histogram) or control antibody (Catalog # AB-108-C, open histogram), followed by APC-conjugated Anti-Goat IgG Secondary Antibody (Catalog # F0108B). To facilitate intracellular staining, cells were fixed with Flow Cytometry Fixation Buffer (Catalog # FC004) and permeabilized with Flow Cytometry Permeabilization/Wash Buffer I (Catalog # FC005).

Background

Laminin subunit alpha 1 (LAMA1) is a secreted 400 kDa extracellular matrix glycoprotein that contributes to the formation of basement membrane Laminin isoforms 1 and 3. It is one of three subunits ( alpha , beta , and gamma ) that interact via their coiled-coil domains to form the approximately 800 kDa cruciform, disulfide-linked, Laminin heterotrimer. The 3058 amino acid (aa) residue mature human alpha 1 chain contains an N-terminal Laminin VI domain (aa 18-269), followed by domains V through III containing 17 EGF-like repeats, the coiled-coil domains II and I, and five globular, Laminin G-like domains. Over aa 22-269, human Laminin alpha 1 shares 95% and 91% aa sequence identity with canine and mouse alpha 1 chain, respectively.

Limitations

This product is for research use only and is not approved for use in humans or in clinical diagnosis. Primary Antibodies are guaranteed for 1 year from date of receipt.
