Anti-Human NRG1-β1 - Biotin

Neuregulin/Heregulin is a family of related growth factors that are differentially spliced variants of four genes: NRG1, NRG2, NRG3 and NRG4. The longest forms of NRG contains several different modular domains and tissue-specific splicing results in many NRG isoforms containing different sets of these domains. Alternative splicing produces two types of EGF domain, designated a and b. HRG-Beta1 contains an Ig domain and an EGF domain necessary for direct binding to receptor tyrosine kinases erbB-3 and erbB-4. HRG-Beta1 binding causes erbB-3 and erbB-4 to dimerize with erbB-2 (Her2/neu) and thereby regulates the phosphorylation of erbB-2 tyrosines. HRG-Beta1 stimulates proliferation and motility of breast cancer cells and plays a role in wound healing by stimulating epidermal migration and differentiation of epidermal cells and by stimulating the expression of integrins in the epidermis.

• Clonality: Polyclonal
• Host: Goat
• Reactivity: Human
• Conjugate: Biotin
• Gene: 3084

• Quantity: 50 µg
• Storage: The lyophilized, biotinylated antigen affinity purified polyclonal antibody can be stored desiccated at -20°C to -70°C for up to twelve months from date of receipt. The reconstituted bitoin conjugate can be stored for at least four weeks at 2-8°C. For long-term storage of the reconstituted conjugate, aseptically aliquot into working volumes and store at -20°C to -70°C in a manual defrost freezer. Avoid Repeated Freeze Thaw Cycles. No detectable loss of activity was observed after six months.
