Ephrin B1 Monoclonal Antibody (25H11), eBioscience™, Invitrogen™

Rat Monoclonal Antibody

Description: The monoclonal antibody 25H11 recognizes mouse Ephrin B1, a 47 kDa membrane protein. Ephrin B1 belongs to a family of ephrins composed of type A (linked to the cell membrane through a glycosylphosphatidyl inositol group) or type B (transmembrane) proteins. The type B ephrins consist of 3 members (B1, B2, and B3) each of which contains a cytoplasmic domain containing tyrosine residues that can be phosphorylated. Ephrin B and ephrin B receptors (Eph B) can interact to potentiate bidirectional downstream signaling between cells expressing either or both the ligand and receptor. Ephrins have been shown to play a role in neural crest cell development through both neurogenesis and neural migration, as well as development of kidney and heart cyto-architecture. Overexpression of type B ephrins in cancer cells is associated with increased vascularity and highly invasive tumors. Applications Reported: This 25H11 antibody has been reported for use in immunohistochemical staining of frozen tissue sections and immunoprecipitation. Applications Tested: This 25H11 antibody has been tested immunohistochemistry on frozen mouse kidney tissue sections at less than or equal to 10 μg/mL. It is recommended that the antibody be carefully titrated for optimal performance in the assay of interest. Purity: Greater than 90%, as determined by SDS-PAGE. Aggregation: Less than 10%, as determined by HPLC. Filtration: 0.2 μm post-manufacturing filtered.
