  • Description
    Rabbit polyclonal to Fibronectin (Biotin)
  • ConjugationBiotin
  • Conjugation notesBiotin

  • Species reactivity
    Reacts with: Mouse, Cow, Human

  • Immunogen

    Fibronectin was purified from Human plasma by binding to a denatured gelatin column followed by elution with high concentrations of arginine. The eluted material was further purified by gel filtration. Immunization occurred after single-band purity was assessed by SDS-PAGE

Properties

  • FormLiquid
  • Storage instructionsStore at +4°C short term (1-2 weeks). Aliquot and store at -20°C or -80°C. Avoid repeated freeze / thaw cycles.
  • Storage buffer0.01M Na phosphate, 0.25M NaCl, pH7.6, 0.05% Na azide, 0.01% Thimerisol, 15mg/ml BSA
  • Concentration information loading...
  • PurityImmunogen affinity purified
  • Purification notesThis product has been prepared by immunoaffinity chromatography using immobilized antigens followed by extensive cross-adsorption against human serum proteins and collagen and non-collagen extracellular matrix proteins to remove any unwanted specificities. Typically less than 1% cross reactivity against other extracellular matrix proteins was detected by ELISA against purified standards.
  • Primary antibody notes This antibody is well suited to detect extracellular matrix proteins in normal as well as disease state tissues. Disruption of tissue organization is the hallmark of neoplasia. Malignant lesions can be distinguished from benign by examining the breakdown of basement membranes and loss of 3-dimensional architecture. Malignant cells are presumed to use matrix metalloproteases to degrade barriers created by the extracellular matrix which then allows metastasis to occur. Collagenases, stomelysins and gelatinases can collectively degrade all of the various components of the extracellular matrix, including fibrillar and non-fibrillar collagens and basement membrane glycoproteins.

Target

  • FunctionFibronectins bind cell surfaces and various compounds including collagen, fibrin, heparin, DNA, and actin. Fibronectins are involved in cell adhesion, cell motility, opsonization, wound healing, and maintenance of cell shape.
    Anastellin binds fibronectin and induces fibril formation. This fibronectin polymer, named superfibronectin, exhibits enhanced adhesive properties. Both anastellin and superfibronectin inhibit tumor growth, angiogenesis and metastasis. Anastellin activates p38 MAPK and inhibits lysophospholipid signaling.
  • Tissue specificityPlasma FN (soluble dimeric form) is secreted by hepatocytes. Cellular FN (dimeric or cross-linked multimeric forms), made by fibroblasts, epithelial and other cell types, is deposited as fibrils in the extracellular matrix. Ugl-Y1, Ugl-Y2 and Ugl-Y3 are found in urine.
  • Involvement in diseaseGlomerulopathy with fibronectin deposits 2 (GFND2) [MIM:601894]: Genetically heterogeneous autosomal dominant disorder characterized clinically by proteinuria, microscopic hematuria, and hypertension that leads to end-stage renal failure in the second to fifth decade of life. Note=The disease is caused by mutations affecting the gene represented in this entry.
  • Sequence similaritiesContains 12 fibronectin type-I domains.
    Contains 2 fibronectin type-II domains.
    Contains 16 fibronectin type-III domains.
  • Developmental stageUgl-Y1, Ugl-Y2 and Ugl-Y3 are present in the urine from 0 to 17 years of age.
  • Post-translational
    modifications
    Sulfated.
    It is not known whether both or only one of Thr-2064 and Thr-2065 are/is glycosylated.
    Forms covalent cross-links mediated by a transglutaminase, such as F13A or TGM2, between a glutamine and the epsilon-amino group of a lysine residue, forming homopolymers and heteropolymers (e.g. fibrinogen-fibronectin, collagen-fibronectin heteropolymers).
    Phosphorylation sites are present in the extracellular medium.
    Proteolytic processing produces the C-terminal NC1 peptide, anastellin.

Anti-Fibronectin antibody (Biotin) images

  • Human Aortic Endothelial Cells grown in MCDB 131+ SmGM-2 media were seeded on a PET membrane. After one week, the cells were blocked with PBS containing 0.1% BSA for 15 min. The membrane was incubated with primary antibody (ab6584) for 30 min  and then with secondary antibody Alexa 488 for 1 hr.

    This picture was kindly supplied as part of the review submitted by Gary Nackman and Ildiko Entersz.

For testing 1ug of antigen, the minimum of antibody used is 1:8000. The maximum is 1:4000. We don't have other data to show the sensitivity. If you have any additional questions, please contact us again.

1:4000 to 1:8000 dilution can detect 1.0ug of Fibronectin. If you have any additional questions, please contact us again.

I have not found reports of staining of fibronectin in the cytoplasm of plasma cells, however it is known that plasma cells adhere to fibronectin (the fibronectin inducing not only the adherence and spread of plasma cells but also their migration). I ...

Thank you for your enquiry. We would like to confirm that the concentration is 2.5mg/mL, so 40uL will give 100ug of antibody.

This antibody does not require antigen retrieval but it may increase staining. We normally recommend the pressure cooker method of antigen retrieval.

450 kDa non-reduced 225 kDa fully reduced

This antibody will cross-ract with mouse fibronectin using formalin fixed paraffin embedded tissues.

Yes, this antibody is available in an unconjugated form, ab299

The extracellular matrix proteins are well conserved, particularly between mammals, so human will cross-react with pig.
