PILRA Antibody

Cell signaling pathways rely on a dynamic interaction between activating and inhibiting processes. SHP-1-mediated dephosphorylation of protein tyrosine residues is central to the regulation of several cell signaling pathways. Two types of inhibitory receptor superfamily members are immunoreceptor tyrosine-based inhibitory motif (ITIM) -bearing receptors and their non-ITIM-bearing, activating counterparts. Control of cell signaling via SHP-1 is thought to occur through a balance between PILRalpha-mediated inhibition and PILRbeta-mediated activation. This particular gene encodes the ITIM-bearing member of the receptor pair, which functions in the inhibitory role.Cell signaling pathways rely on a dynamic interaction between activating and inhibiting processes.

Control of cell signaling via SHP-1 is thought to occur through a balance between PILRalpha-mediated inhibition and PILRbeta-mediated activation. These paired immunoglobulin-like receptor genes are located in a tandem head-to-tail orientation on chromosome 7. This particular gene encodes the ITIM-bearing member of the receptor pair, which functions in the inhibitory role. Alternative splicing has been observed at this locus and three variants, each encoding a distinct isoform, are described.

For short periods of storage (days) store at 4˚ C. For longer periods of storage, store PILRA antibody at -20˚ C. As with any antibody avoid repeat freeze-thaw cycles.

PILRA antibody can be used for detection of PILRA by ELISA at 1:1562500. PILRA antibody can be used for detection of PILRA by western blot at 0.5 μ g/mL, and HRP conjugated secondary antibody should be diluted 1:50,000 - 100,000.
