Description
Adenomatous polyposis coli (APC) is a protein that plays a critical role in several cellular processes. APC is a tumor suppressor, regulates cell division, helps ensure that the number of chromosomes in a cell is correct following cell division and associates with other proteins involved in cell attachment and signaling (1). APC regulates β-catenin levels through Wnt-signaling and is involved in actin cytoskeletal integrity, cell-cell adhesion and cell migration (2-3). Mutations cause the production of an APC protein that is abnormally short and nonfunctional. Defects in APC are a cause of familial aenomatous polyposis (FAP), Turcot syndrome, medulloblastoma (MDB), and other cancers. (4-6)

Cross reactivity determined by western blot only.

Products Data 

 

A. Western blot analysis on 293 cell lysate using anti-APC RabMAb (cat. # 1701-1), dilution 1:1,000.
B. Immunohistochemical analysis of paraffin-embedded human colon carcinoma using anti-APC RabMAb (cat. # 1701-1).

Specificity
A synthetic peptide corresponding to residues near the N-terminus of human APC was used as immunogen. This antibody is predicted to detect isoform 2 based on sequence analysis.

Storage Condition and Buffer
Store at -20 °C. Buffer: 50 mM Tris-Glycine (pH 7.4), 0.15 M NaCl, 40% Glycerol, 0.01% sodium azide and 0.05% BSA. Stable for 12 months from date of receipt.

Alternative Names
APC antibody, BTPS2 antibody, DP2 antibody, DP2.5 antibody, DP3 antibody, GS antibody, Adenomatous polyposis coli protein antibody, Deleted in polyposis 2.5 antibody
