{"product_id":"cst-30683sf","title":"CST,  30683SF, S100B (E9F2I) Rabbit Monoclonal Antibody (BSA and Azide Free)","description":"Monoclonal Antibody for studying S100B. Validated for Western Blotting,Immunohistochemistry (Paraffin). Highly specific and rigorously validated in-house, S100B (E9F2I) Rabbit Monoclonal Antibody (BSA and Azide Free) (CST #30683) is ready to ship.\n\n\u003cb\u003eProduct Usage Information\u003c\/b\u003e\nThis product is the carrier free version of product #28192. All data were generated using the same antibody clone in the standard formulation which contains BSA and glycerol. This formulation is ideal for use with technologies requiring specialized or custom antibody labeling, including fluorophores, metals, lanthanides, and oligonucleotides. It is not recommended for ChIP, ChIP-seq, CUT\u0026amp;RUN or CUT\u0026amp;Tag assays. If you require a carrier free formulation for chromatin profiling, please contact us . Optimal dilutions\/concentrations should be determined by the end user. BSA and Azide Free antibodies are quality control tested by size exclusion chromatography (SEC) to determine antibody integrity.\n\u003cb\u003eFormulation\u003c\/b\u003e\nSupplied in 1X PBS (10 mM Na 2 HPO 4 , 3 mM KCl, 2 mM KH 2 PO 4 , and 140 mM NaCl (pH 7.8)). BSA and Azide Free. For standard formulation of this product see product # 28192\n\u003cb\u003eStorage\u003c\/b\u003e\nStore at -20°C. This product will freeze at -20°C so it is recommended to aliquot into single-use vials to avoid multiple freeze\/thaw cycles. A slight precipitate may be present and can be dissolved by gently vortexing. This will not interfere with antibody performance.\n\u003cb\u003eSpecificity \/ Sensitivity\u003c\/b\u003e\nS100B (E9F2I) Rabbit Monoclonal Antibody (BSA and Azide Free) recognizes endogenous levels of total S100B protein. This antibody recognizes mouse S100B protein and is also reactive with human S100B; however, this antibody is not suggested for immunohistochemical analysis of human tissues.\nSpecies Reactivity: Human, Mouse, Rat\n\u003cb\u003eSource \/ Purification\u003c\/b\u003e\nMonoclonal antibody is produced by immunizing animals with a synthetic peptide corresponding to residues surrounding His86 of human S100B protein.\n\u003cb\u003eBackground\u003c\/b\u003e\nDespite their relatively small size (8-12 kDa) and uncomplicated architecture, S100 proteins regulate a variety of cellular processes, such as cell growth and motility, cell cycle progression, transcription, and differentiation. To date, 25 members have been identified, including S100A1-S100A18, trichohyalin, filaggrin, repetin, S100P, and S100Z, making it the largest group in the EF-hand, calcium-binding protein family. Interestingly, 14 S100 genes are clustered on human chromosome 1q21, a region of genomic instability. Research studies have demonstrated that significant correlation exists between aberrant S100 protein expression and cancer progression. S100 proteins primarily mediate immune responses in various tissue types but are also involved in neuronal development (1-4). Each S100 monomer bears two EF-hand motifs and can bind up to two molecules of calcium (or other divalent cations in some instances). Structural evidence shows that S100 proteins form antiparallel homo- or heterodimers that coordinate binding partner proximity in a calcium-dependent (and sometimes calcium-independent) manner. Although structurally and functionally similar, individual members show restricted tissue distribution, are localized in specific cellular compartments, and display unique protein binding partners, which suggests that each plays a specific role in various signaling pathways. In addition to an intracellular role, some S100 proteins have been shown to act as receptors for extracellular ligands or are secreted and exhibit cytokine-like activities (1-4). S100B is abundantly expressed in astrocytes and is commonly used as an astrocytic marker in studies of the mammalian CNS. S100B is also expressed in immature and mature myelinating oligodendrocytes that are chondroitin sulfate proteoglycan (NG2)-positive (5).\n\u003cb\u003eAlternate Names\u003c\/b\u003e\nNEF; Protein S100-B; S-100 calcium-binding protein, beta chain; S-100 protein beta chain; S-100 protein subunit beta; S100; S100 beta; S100 calcium binding protein B; S100 calcium binding protein, beta (neural); S100 calcium-binding protein B; S100 calcium-binding protein, beta (neural); S100-B; S100B; S100beta\n\n\u003cb\u003eSpecification\u003c\/b\u003e\n\nREACTIVITY: H M R\nSENSITIVITY: Endogenous\nMW (kDa): 10\nSource\/Isotype: Rabbit IgG","brand":"CST","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46798068252841,"sku":"30683SF","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/iright.com\/products\/cst-30683sf","provider":"Iright","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
