Plexin A1 Antibody

Western Blot: Plexin A1 Antibody [NBP3-23317] - Western blots showing mouse brain (lanes 1 & 4), and Cos-7 cells untransfected (lanes 2 & 5) or transfected with mouse myc-tagged Plexin A1 (lanes 3 & 6). The blots were probed with either affinity purified anti-Plexin A1 (NBP3-23317); lanes 1-3) or with mouse monoclonal anti-Myc (lanes 4-6).

Immunocytochemistry/Immunofluorescence: Plexin A1 Antibody [NBP3-23317] - Immunocytochemical double labeling using anti-Myc mouse monoclonal and anti-Plexin A1 rabbit polyclonal (NBP3-23317) antibodies in Cos-7 cells mock transfected (A,D) or transfected with Myc-tagged mouse Plexin A1 construct (B,E). The specificity of the binding in E was demonstrated by using Plexin A1 peptide in the presence of this anti-Plexin A1 antibody (C,F).

Plexin A1 Antibody Summary

• Description: Stable for at least 1 year at -20°C.
• Immunogen: Plexin A1 synthetic peptide (coupled to carrier protein) corresponding to a region within the semaphorin domain in human Plexin A1. This sequence is highly conserved in rat and mouse Plexin A1, and has low homology to other Plexin family members. [UniProt# Q9UIW2]
• Specificity: The antibody detects a 220 kDa protein corresponding to the apparent molecular mass of Plexin A1 on SDS-PAGE immunoblots of adult mouse brain and Cos-7 cells transfected with mouse Plexin A1. In immunocytochemistry, this antibody co-localizes with anti-Myc in Cos-7 cells transfected with Myc-tagged mouse Plexin A1.

Background

Coreceptor for SEMA3A, SEMA3C, SEMA3F and SEMA6D. Necessary for signaling by class 3 semaphorins and subsequent remodeling of the cytoskeleton. Plays a role in axon guidance, invasive growth and cell migration. Class 3 semaphorins bind to a complex composed of a neuropilin and a plexin. The plexin modulates the affinity of the complex for specific semaphorins, and its cytoplasmic domain is required for the activation of down-stream signaling events in the cytoplasm
