Preparation And Storage
Product Notices
- Since applications vary, each investigator should titrate the reagent to obtain optimal results.
- Please refer to www.bdbiosciences.com/us/s/resources for technical protocols.
- 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.
- Source of all serum proteins is from USDA inspected abattoirs located in the United States.

A-Raf, a proto-oncogene that encodes a 68 kDa serine/threonine-specific protein kinase, shows strong homology to c-Raf and v-Raf in the kinase region of the molecule. c-Raf appears to be uniformly and ubiquitously expressed, but A-Raf expression is much more variable. A-Raf is found at highest levels in urogenital and kidney tissues, with the lowest levels found in brain. Cell transformation by A-Raf has been shown to be independent of p21[ras], suggesting the possibility of an independent signal transduction pathway.
This antibody is routinely tested by western blot analysis. Other applications were tested at BD Biosciences Pharmingen during antibody development only or reported in the literature.
