Overview

Properties

Applications

Our Abpromise guarantee covers the use of ab9758 in the following tested applications.

The application notes include recommended starting dilutions; optimal dilutions/concentrations should be determined by the end user.

Application Notes
WB WB: 1/100 - 1/500. In reduced samples, the expected bands are 12 kDa (mature protein) and 44 kDa (unprocessed protein). Expected band at 25 kDa in non-reduced samples (homodimer of mature protein). Glycosylations may also cause unprocessed protein to run a few kDa higher (around 50 kDa).

Target

  • FunctionMultifunctional protein that controls proliferation, differentiation and other functions in many cell types. Many cells synthesize TGFB1 and have specific receptors for it. It positively and negatively regulates many other growth factors. It plays an important role in bone remodeling as it is a potent stimulator of osteoblastic bone formation, causing chemotaxis, proliferation and differentiation in committed osteoblasts.
  • Tissue specificityHighly expressed in bone. Abundantly expressed in articular cartilage and chondrocytes and is increased in osteoarthritis (OA). Co-localizes with ASPN in chondrocytes within OA lesions of articular cartilage.
  • Involvement in diseaseDefects in TGFB1 are the cause of Camurati-Engelmann disease (CE) [MIM:131300]; also known as progressive diaphyseal dysplasia 1 (DPD1). CE is an autosomal dominant disorder characterized by hyperostosis and sclerosis of the diaphyses of long bones. The disease typically presents in early childhood with pain, muscular weakness and waddling gait, and in some cases other features such as exophthalmos, facial paralysis, hearing difficulties and loss of vision.
  • Sequence similaritiesBelongs to the TGF-beta family.
  • Post-translational
    modifications
    Glycosylated.
    The precursor is cleaved into mature TGF-beta-1 and LAP, which remains non-covalently linked to mature TGF-beta-1 rendering it inactive.
  • Cellular localizationSecreted > extracellular space > extracellular matrix.

Anti-TGF beta 1 antibody images

  • Western blot analysis using ab9758 at 1/200 to detect human TGFß1. Each lane contains 250 ng of protein under non-reducing (lane 1) and reducing conditions (lane 2). Comparison to molecular weight markers (not shown) was used to estimate the indicated molecular weights. TGF beta 1 is a 25kD homodimer composed of two 12.5kD subunits joined by disulfide bonds. Therefor a 25kD band is seen in the non-reducing lane and a 12kD band in the reducing lane.

Thank you very much for your interest in ab9758.

Unfortunately, this antibody has not been tested in opossum and the immunogen also does not show a significant homology to opossum according to NCBI Blast.

But rat shows a 100% sequence...
