{"product_id":"biolegend-141302","title":"Biolegend, 141302, Purified anti-mouse LAP (TGF-β1) Antibody, 100μg","description":"\u003cp\u003eTransforming growth factor beta (TGF-β) is a cytokine that has critical functions in immune response by regulating Treg and Th17 cells. TGF-β is first synthesized as pro-TGF-β and then it is cleaved by furin proprotein convertase in the Golgi apparatus to produce the dimeric propeptides called latency-associated peptide (LAP) that non-covalently associates with the dimeric mature TGF-β to prevent its activity. This complex can further associate with latent-TGF-β-binding protein (LTBP) to produce a large latent form for deposition onto the extracellular matrix. The latent-TGF-β can be expressed on the membrane of activated Treg cells, immature dendritic cells, megakaryocytes, and platelets.\u003cbr\u003e\n100μg\u003cbr\u003e\nVerified Reactivity: Mouse\u003cbr\u003e\nAntibody Type: Monoclonal\u003cbr\u003e\nHost Species: Mouse\u003cbr\u003e\nImmunogen: Mouse Tgfb1-transduced P3U1 cells\u003cbr\u003e\nFormulation: Phosphate-buffered solution, pH 7.2, containing 0.09% sodium azide.\u003cbr\u003e\nPreparation: The antibody was purified by affinity chromatography.\u003cbr\u003e\nConcentration: 0.5 mg\/ml\u003cbr\u003e\nStorage \u0026amp; Handling: The antibody solution should be stored undiluted between 2°C and 8°C.\u003cbr\u003e\nApplication: FC - Quality tested IP, WB, Neut - Reported in the literature, not verified in house\u003cbr\u003e\nRecommended Usage: Each lot of this antibody is quality control tested by immunofluorescent staining with flow cytometric analysis. For flow cytometric staining, the suggested use of this reagent is ≤1.0 µg per million cells in 100 µl volume. It is recommended that the reagent be titrated for optimal performance for each application.\u003cbr\u003e\nApplication Notes: Clone TW7-20B9 has been reported to not cross-react with human LAP.2 Several anti-LAP antibody clones have been compared and characterized for their LAP reactivity.2 This antibody recognizes recombinant LAP, latent TGF-ß, and pro-TGF-ß. Additional reported applications (for relevant formats) include: Western blotting1, immunoprecipitation1, and neutralization2. TW7-20B9 is able to neutralize certain unconventional T cell-derived forms of TGF-ß activity, but not the distinct 25 kDa free form of TGF-ß.2\u003cbr\u003e\nApplication References(PubMed link indicates BioLegend citation): Oida T, et al. 2010.
