TGF-alpha

• Gene Name:

  [TGFA]

• NCBI Gene ID:

  7039

• Reactivity:

  Human, Rabbit, Zebrafish (Others not known)

• Storage Conditions:

  Antibody with out azide , store at 20°C to 80°C. Non-hazardous. No MSDS required.

• Specificity:

  This antibody reacts with the TGF alpha and shows no cross-reaction with EGF and the neuropeptide synenkephalin. The staining with this MAb is completely blocked by the peptide used for raising this antibody. TGFalpha (aa50) is a growth factor with 33% homology to EGF, binds to EGFR, activates tyrosine phosphorylation of the receptor, and stimulates cell proliferation. It plays a role in tumor initiation by inducing the reversible transformed phenotype.
