Phosphorylation of S346\/347 blocks antibody binding. PMID: 24154522, 25451233.We recommend dephosphorylation of samples using lambda phosphatase treatment. Please refer to application notes.Although some customers can get this ab to work in mouse and rat successfully, we cannot reproduce this in house in IHC so cannot guarantee it.

It has a molecular weight of approximately 41 kDa. CXCR4 is ubiquitously expressed across various tissues including immune cells like T and B lymphocytes as well as in bone marrow brain and heart. It binds specifically with the ligand CXCL12 also known as stromal cell-derived factor 1 (SDF-1) facilitating responses such as cell migration and proliferation.\u003cbr\u003e\nBiological function summary\u003cbr\u003e\nCXCR4 plays an important role in the immune system hematopoiesis and angiogenesis. It does not function alone and is often part of a larger protein complex where it recruits and activates other G proteins. The receptor mediates chemotactic responses directing cells to sites of inflammation or injury. Its interaction with CXCL12 is critical for maintaining immune surveillance aiding in the movement and positioning of immune cells.\u003cbr\u003e\nPathways\u003cbr\u003e\nCXCR4 integrates into significant cellular signaling pathways such as the PI3K\/AKT pathway and the MAPK pathway. It collaborates closely with signaling proteins like AKT1 and MAPK1 impacting cell survival and growth. These pathways are essential for various cellular functions including cell cycle progression and apoptosis regulation. The cross-talk between CXCR4 and these pathways underlines its influence on cell fate decisions.\u003cbr\u003e\nCXCR4 is implicated in cancer metastasis and HIV entry into cells. Overexpression of CXCR4 is observed in several cancers contributing to tumor growth and metastasis. The interaction between CXCR4 and CXCL12 facilitates the infiltration and spread of cancer cells. Additionally in HIV CXCR4 serves as a coreceptor along with CD4 allowing the virus to enter and infect host cells. Both cancer and HIV illustrate CXCR4's central role in disease progression and pathogenesis.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Abcam","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46860469403817,"sku":"ab222223","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/iright.com\/ar\/products\/abcam-ab222223","provider":"Iright","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
