Product Notices

  1. Since applications vary, each investigator should titrate the reagent to obtain optimal results.
  2. Please refer to www.bdbiosciences.com/us/s/resources for technical protocols.
  3. Caution: Sodium azide yields highly toxic hydrazoic acid under acidic conditions. Dilute azide compounds in running water before discarding to avoid accumulation of potentially explosive deposits in plumbing.
  4. Source of all serum proteins is from USDA inspected abattoirs located in the United States.

7/CD104

Cell adhesion to extracellular matrix components or to cell surface proteins, especially those expressed by leukocytes and endothelial cells, is mediated by integrins. Integrins contain noncovalently associated α and β subunits. At least 17 α and 8 β subunits have been identified and these proteins can heterodimerize to form 22 different receptors. The α6β4 integrin is a receptor for various laminins and binds with the highest affinity to laminins 4 and 5. It exhibits elevated expression in the basal cell layer of stratified epithelia, in Schwann cells at the onset of myelination, and in CD4-CD8- pre-T lymphocytes entering the thymus. In addition, α6β4 expression is increased in squamous carcinomas where it promotes invasion through a targeting of PI3 kinase activity. The majority of β4 comprises a cytoplasmic domain with unique signaling properties. The C-terminal portion of this domain contains two pairs of type III fibronectin-like motifs (FNIII) and a tyrosine activation motif (TAM). Additional domains in the cytoplasmic tail bind Shc and activate the MAPK pathway. Thus, integrin β4 is an integrin subunit that is important for cell survival, growth, and differentiation.

Purified
Tissue culture supernatant is purified by either protein A/G or affinity purification methods. Both methods yield antibody in solution that is free of most other soluble proteins, lipids, etc. This format provides pure antibody that is suitable for a number of downstream applications including: secondary labeling for flow cytometry or microscopy, ELISA, Western blot, etc.
