Target

  • Function

    In association with DPP4 is involved in the pericellular proteolysis of the extracellular matrix (ECM), the migration and invasion of endothelial cells into the ECM. May have a role in tissue remodeling during development and wound healing, and may contribute to invasiveness in malignant cancers.

  • Tissue specificity

    Fibroblast specific.

  • Sequence similarities

    Belongs to the peptidase S9B family.

  • Post-translational
    modifications

    N-glycosylated.
    The N-terminus may be blocked.

  • Cellular localization

    Cell membrane. Cell projection > lamellipodium membrane. Cell projection > invadopodium membrane. Found in cell surface lamellipodia, invadopodia and on shed vesicles. Colocalized with DPP4 in invadopodia and lamellipodia of migratory activated endothelial cells in collagenous matrix. Colocalized with DPP4 on endothelial cells of capillary-like microvessels but not large vessels within invasive breast ductal carcinoma.

    Immunohistochemistry (Formalin/PFA-fixed paraffin-embedded sections) analysis of Human colon carcinoma tissue sections labeling Fibroblast activation protein, alpha with ab227703 at 1/100 dilution (1.76 μg/ml). Heat mediated antigen retrieval with Tris-EDTA buffer (pH 9.0, epitope retrieval solution 2) for 10 mins. Rabbit specific IHC polymer detection kit HRP/DAB (ab209101) was used as the secondary antibody. Hematoxylin was used as a counterstain. Positive staining on the stroma in the human colon carcinoma, performed on a Leica Biosystems BOND™ RX instrument.
    The section was incubated with ab227703 for 10 mins at room temperature.

    This image was generated using ab227703, the same clone, but with a different buffer formulation.
