DescriptionMilk Fat Globule-Egf Factor 8, also called Lactadherin or SED1, is a protein which in humans is encoded by the MFGE8 gene. It is a secreted protein found in vertebrates, including mammals as well as birds. By fluorescence in situ hybridization, Collins et al.(1997) mapped the gene to chromosome 15q25. Hanayama et al.(2002) found that it is a factor that links apoptotic cells to phagocytes. MFGE8 specifically bound to apoptotic cells by recognizing aminophospholipids such as phosphatidylserine. When engaged by phospholipids, it bound to cells via its RGD motif. It bound particularly strongly to cells expressing alpha-V-beta-3 integrin. Bu et al.(2007) showed that MFGE8 was expressed in intestinal lamina propria macrophages in mice. Using a wound-healing assay, they showed that the protein promoted migration of intestinal epithelial cells through a PKC-epsilon (PRKCE)-dependent mechanism.

ImmunogenAn amino acid sequence from the middle region of human MFGE8 (NGHEFDFIHDVNKKHK) was used as the immunogen for this MFGE8 antibody.
-
StorageAfter reconstitution, the MFGE8 antibody can be stored for up to one month at 4oC. For long-term, aliquot and store at -20 deg. Celcius or lower. Cycles of freezing and thawing can denaturate the peptide chains of the antibodies and reduce their sensitivity and/or change their affinity. Prepare aliqotes in such a manner so that freeze-thaw cycles are minimized. Avoid repeated freezing and thawing.
