Applications/Dilutions

• Dilutions:
  • Immunohistochemistry
  • Immunohistochemistry-Paraffin 6.5 ug/ml
  • Peptide ELISA Detection limit 1:8000
• Application Notes: WB: Preliminary experiments gave an approx. 25 kDa band in human lymph node lysates and in lysates of HeLa and HepG2 after 0.1 ug/ml antibody staining. Please note that currently we cannot find an explanation in the literature for the band we observe given the calculated size of 17.1 kDa band according to NP_004853.2. The 25 kDa band was successfully blocked by incubation with the immunizing peptide.
• Control:

  LITAF Overexpression Lysate

Background

Lipopolysaccharide is a potent stimulator of monocytes and macrophages, causing secretion of tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha) and other inflammatory mediators. This gene encodes lipopolysaccharide-induced TNF-alpha factor, which is a DNA-binding protein and can mediate the TNF-alpha expression by direct binding to the promoter region of the TNF-alpha gene. The transcription of this gene is induced by tumor suppresor p53 and has been implicated in the p53-induced apoptotic pathway. Mutations in this gene cause Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease type 1C (CMT1C) and may be involved in the carcinogenesis of extramammary Paget's disease (EMPD). Multiple alternatively spliced transcript variants have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq]
