{"product_id":"biolegend-652803","title":"Biolegend, 652803, PE anti-AIM2 Antibody, 25tests","description":"\u003cp\u003eAIM2 is one of the human IFN-inducible proteins, encoding a 39 kD protein. It contains a 200 amino acid repeat, which is a signature of the HIN-200 family (hematopoietic IFN-inducible nuclear proteins). Expression of AIM2 can inhibit cell growth and tumor formation, possibly through inducing apoptosis and suppressing nuclear factor-κ B transcriptional activity and desensitizing tumor necrosis factor-alpha-mediated nuclear factor-κ B activation. Furthermore, the gene for AIM2 shows a high frequency of mutations that are associated with microsatellite unstable colorectal cancers. AIM2 plays a critical role in the activation of caspase-1, the protease responsible for the processing of pro-inflammatory cytokines IL-1β and IL-18. AIM2 is also essential for mediating inflammatory reactions triggered by cytoplasmic DNA. AIM2 is an important sensor for different pathogens through the binding of cytoplasmic double-stranded DNA through HIN-200 domain and formation of inflammatsomes including ASC\/AIM2. This complex then triggers caspase-1 activation. Recent studies also show that AIM2\/ASC complex acts as a novel caspase-8 activation platform.\u003cbr\u003e\n25tests\u003cbr\u003e\nVerified Reactivity: Human\u003cbr\u003e\nAntibody Type: Monoclonal\u003cbr\u003e\nHost Species: Mouse\u003cbr\u003e\nImmunogen: Recombinant fragment, corresponding to amino acids 1-186 of human AIM2 with a GST tag.\u003cbr\u003e\nFormulation: Phosphate-buffered solution, pH 7.2, containing 0.09% sodium azide and BSA (origin USA)\u003cbr\u003e\nPreparation: The antibody was purified by affinity chromatography and conjugated with PE under optimal conditions.\u003cbr\u003e\nConcentration: Lot-specific (to obtain lot-specific concentration and expiration, please enter the lot number in our Certificate of Analysis online tool.)\u003cbr\u003e\nStorage \u0026amp; Handling: The antibody solution should be stored undiluted between 2°C and 8°C, and protected from prolonged exposure to light.
