Western blot was performed from the immunoprecipitate using ab255811 at 1/1000 dilution. VeriBlot for IP Detection Reagent (HRP) (ab131366), was used at 1/1000 dilution.

Lane 1 : A375 whole cell lysate 10 μg (Input).
Lane 2 : ab255811 IP in A375 whole cell lysate.
Lane 3 : Rabbit monoclonal IgG (ab172730) instead of ab255811 in A375 whole cell lysate.

The molecular weight observed is consistent with what has been described in the literature (PMID : 9477982, 8790396). A truncated form is also detected (190kDa, PMID : 25387269).

Target data

Proteoglycan playing a role in cell proliferation and migration which stimulates endothelial cells motility during microvascular morphogenesis. May also inhibit neurite outgrowth and growth cone collapse during axon regeneration. Cell surface receptor for collagen alpha 2(VI) which may confer cells ability to migrate on that substrate. Binds through its extracellular N-terminus growth factors, extracellular matrix proteases modulating their activity. May regulate MPP16-dependent degradation and invasion of type I collagen participating in melanoma cells invasion properties. May modulate the plasminogen system by enhancing plasminogen activation and inhibiting angiostatin. Also functions as a signal transducing protein by binding through its cytoplasmic C-terminus scaffolding and signaling proteins. May promote retraction fiber formation and cell polarization through Rho GTPase activation. May stimulate alpha-4, beta-1 integrin-mediated adhesion and spreading by recruiting and activating a signaling cascade through CDC42, ACK1 and BCAR1. May activate FAK and ERK1/ERK2 signaling cascades.
