Anti-Neuropilin-1 (a1 CUB Domain) Antibody

Neuropilins are transmembrane proteins that contain two CUB domains (a1 and a2), two coagulation factor-like domains (b1 and b2), and a MAM domain in the extracellular region. These proteins have short cytoplasmic domains that include a PDZ-binding motif. The neuropilin (NRP) family includes NRP-1, NRP-2A, and NRP-2B. NRP-1 has been implicated as a receptor involved in axon guidance and VEGF signaling. NRP-1 mediates activation of intracellular signaling pathways through interaction with its co-receptors, Plexin-A1 and VEGFRs. The expression of NRP-1, along with the co-receptor Plexin-A1, is upregulated in neurons after central nervous system injury. The axons from these neurons cannot cross semaphorin 3A-containing regions at the site of injury. Thus, semaphorin 3A and its co-receptors, Plexin-A1 and Neuropilin-1, may have significant roles in axon regeneration after neuronal injury.

Our Neuropilin-1 (a1 CUB Domain) mouse monoclonal primary antibody from PhosphoSolutions is produced in-house. It detects human, mouse, and rat Neuropilin-1 (a1 CUB Domain) and is Protein G purified. It is great for use in WB, ICC, IHC.

Clone M534 was generated from a neuropilin-1 synthetic peptide (coupled to carrier protein) corresponding to amino acids within the a1 CUB domain of human neuropilin-1. This sequence is highly conserved in rat and mouse neuropilin-1, and has low homology to neuropilin-2.

The antibody detects a 130 kDa* protein corresponding to the apparent molecular mass of neuropilin-1 on SDS-PAGE immunoblots of human recombinant neuropilin-1 and in human PC3 cells.
