Anti-WIPF1 Antibody Picoband® Fluoro550 Conjugated
Product Specifications
Background
WAS/WASL-interacting protein (WIP) is a protein that in humans is encoded by the WIPF1 gene. This gene encodes a protein that plays an important role in the organization of the actin cytoskeleton. The encoded protein binds to a region of Wiskott-Aldrich syndrome protein that is frequently mutated in Wiskott-Aldrich syndrome, an X-linked recessive disorder. Impairment of the interaction between these two proteins may contribute to the disease. Two transcript variants encoding the same protein have been identified for this gene.
Synonyms
Vascular endothelial growth factor B; VEGF-B; VEGF-related factor; VRF; VEGFB; VRF

Host
Rabbit
Reactivity
Human, Mouse, Rat
Cross Reactivity
No cross-reactivity with other proteins.
Immunogen
A synthetic peptide corresponding to a sequence at the C-terminus of human WIPF1, which shares 95% amino acid (aa) sequence identity with mouse and rat WIPF1.
Clonality
Polyclonal
Tissue Specificity
Expressed in all tissues except liver. Highest levels found in heart, skeletal muscle and pancreas.
Applications
Flow Cytometry
Field of Research
Angiogenesis, Cancer, Cardiovascular, Growth Factors, Growth Factors/Hormones, Invasion/Microenvironment, Neurogenesis, Neurology Process, Neuroscience, Signal Transduction
Purification
Immunogen affinity purified.
Form
Liquid
Function
Growth factor for endothelial cells. VEGF-B167 binds heparin and neuropilin-1 whereas the binding to neuropilin-1 of VEGF-B186 is regulated by proteolysis.
