Anti-MIP-3 alpha Ccl20 Antibody Biotin Conjugated

MIP-3α (also known as C-C motif chemokine 20, small-inducible cytokine A20, macrophage inflammatory protein 3 alpha, MIP-3-alpha, liver and activation-regulated chemokine, CC chemokine LARC and beta chemokine exodus-1) is a chemotactic factor that attracts lymphocytes and, slightly, neutrophils, but not monocytes. MIP-3α inhibits proliferation of myeloid progenitors in colony formation assays and may be involved in formation and function of the mucosal lymphoid tissues by attracting lymphocytes and dendritic cells towards epithelial cells. C-terminal processed forms have been shown to be equally chemotactically active for leukocytes. MIP-3α also possesses antibacterial activity against E.coli and S.aureus. MIP-3α is a secreted protein that is expressed predominantly in the liver, lymph nodes, appendix, peripheral blood lymphocytes, and fetal lung. Low levels of expression are also seen in thymus, prostate, testis, small intestine and colon. C-terminal processed forms which lack 1, 3 or 6 amino acids are produced by proteolytic cleavage after secretion from peripheral blood monocytes. MIP-1 alpha Antibody Biotin Conjugated is useful for researchers interested in Cancer, Cell Biology and Immunology Research.

MIP-3 alpha Antibody Biotin Conjugated was prepared from whole rabbit serum produced by repeated immunizations with full length recombinant human MIP-3α protein.

Prominently expressed in the small intestine, colon and appendix. Also found in thymus, spleen, lymph node and lung. The long form might be dominant in intestinal, and the short form in lymphoid tissues.

Human MIP-3 alpha Antibody Biotin Conjugated was heated to 56°C for 30 minutes. In ELISA and other immunoreactive assays, this antibody will recognize both native and recombinant human MIP-3α in cell supernatants and certain body fluids. A control of similarly diluted normal rabbit IgG is recommended.

Chemotactic factor that attracts lymphocytes and, slightly, neutrophils, but not monocytes. May be involved in formation and function of the mucosal lymphoid tissues by attracting lymphocytes and dendritic cells towards epithelial cells.

Store MIP-3 alpha Antibody Biotin Conjugated at 4°C prior to restoration. For extended storage aliquot contents and freeze at -20°C or below. Avoid cycles of freezing and thawing. Centrifuge product if not completely clear after standing at room temperature. This product is stable for several weeks at 4°C as an undiluted liquid. Dilute only prior to immediate use. Expiration date is one (1) year from date of opening.

This purified antibody has been tested in western blotting and is suitable in ELISA. By western blot a band approximately 11 kDa in size corresponding to human MIP-3α protein is expected in the appropriate cell lysate or extract. Specific conditions for reactivity should be optimized by the end user.
