{"product_id":"cst-73885sf","title":"CST,  73885SF, SMAD4 (D3R4N) Rabbit Monoclonal Antibody (BSA and Azide Free)","description":"Monoclonal Antibody for studying SMAD4. Validated for WB,IHC,IHC,IF,F,ELISA+. Highly specific and rigorously validated in-house, SMAD4 (D3R4N) Rabbit Monoclonal Antibody (BSA and Azide Free) (CST #73885) is ready to ship.\n\n\u003cb\u003eProduct Usage Information\u003c\/b\u003e\nThis product is the carrier free version of product #46535. 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 # 46535 .\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\nSMAD4 (D3R4N) Rabbit Monoclonal Antibody (BSA and Azide Free) recognizes endogenous levels of total SMAD4 protein.\nSpecies Reactivity: Human, Mouse, Rat, Monkey\n\u003cb\u003eSource \/ Purification\u003c\/b\u003e\nMonoclonal antibody is produced by immunizing animals with recombinant protein corresponding to human SMAD4 protein. The epitope has been mapped to residues surrounding Ser315.\n\u003cb\u003eBackground\u003c\/b\u003e\nMembers of the SMAD family of signal transduction molecules are components of a critical intracellular pathway that transmits TGF-Î² signals from the cell surface into the nucleus. Three distinct classes of SMADs have been defined: the receptor-regulated SMADs (R-SMADs), which include SMAD1, 2, 3, 5, 9; the common-mediator SMAD (co-SMAD), SMAD4; and the antagonistic or inhibitory SMADs (I-SMADs), SMAD6 and 7 (1-5). Activated type I receptors associate with specific R-SMADs and phosphorylate them on a conserved SSXS motif in the carboxy-terminus. Phosphorylated R-SMADS dissociate from the receptor and form a heteromeric complex with SMAD4, initiating translocation of the heteromeric SMAD complex to the nucleus. Once in the nucleus, SMADs recruit a variety of DNA binding proteins that function to regulate transcriptional activity (6-8).\n\u003cb\u003eAlternate Names\u003c\/b\u003e\ndeleted in pancreatic carcinoma locus 4; Deletion target in pancreatic carcinoma 4; DPC4; hSMAD4; JIP; MAD homolog 4; MAD, mothers against decapentaplegic homolog 4; MADH4; Mothers against decapentaplegic homolog 4; mothers against decapentaplegic, Drosophila, homolog of, 4; Mothers against DPP homolog 4; MYHRS; SMAD 4; SMAD family member 4; SMAD, mothers against DPP homolog 4; SMAD4\n\n\u003cb\u003eSpecification\u003c\/b\u003e\n\nREACTIVITY: H M R Mk\nSENSITIVITY: Endogenous\nMW (kDa): 70\nSource\/Isotype: Rabbit IgG","brand":"CST","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46799884812457,"sku":"73885SF","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/iright.com\/products\/cst-73885sf","provider":"Iright","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
