EPHA5 Antibody: Biotin (OABF01713-Biotin)

• Gene Name:

  EPH receptor A5

• Gene Aliases:

  EK7, CEK7, EHK1, HEK7, EHK-1, TYRO4

• Gene ID:

  2044

• Swiss Prot:

  P54756

• Host:

  Rabbit

• Reactivity:

  Human, Mouse, Rat

• Immunogen:

  KLH conjugated synthetic peptide derived from human EphA5/Eph receptor A5

• Target:

  Receptor tyrosine kinase which binds promiscuously GPI-anchored ephrin-A family ligands residing on adjacent cells, leading to contact-dependent bidirectional signaling into neighboring cells. The signaling pathway downstream of the receptor is referred to as forward signaling while the signaling pathway downstream of the ephrin ligand is referred to as reverse signaling. Among GPI-anchored ephrin-A ligands, EFNA5 most probably constitutes the cognate/functional ligand for EPHA5. Functions as an axon guidance molecule during development and may be involved in the development of the retinotectal, entorhino-hippocampal and hippocamposeptal pathways. Together with EFNA5 plays also a role in synaptic plasticity in adult brain through regulation of synaptogenesis. In addition to its function in the nervous system, the interaction of EPHA5 with EFNA5 mediates communication between pancreatic islet cells to regulate glucose-stimulated insulin secretion (By similarity) .

• Clonality:

  Polyclonal

• Conjugation:

  Biotin

• Type:

  Polyclonal Antibody

• Applications:

  WB, IHC-P, IF

• Purification:

  Purified by Protein A.

• Concentration:

  1 mg/mL

• Format:

  Liquid. Purified antibody supplied in 1x PBS buffer.

• Reconstitution:

  All conjugated antibodies should be stored in light-protected vials or covered with a light protecting material (i.e. aluminum foil) . Conjugated antibodies are stable for at least 12 months at 4C. If longer storage is desired (24 months), conjugates may be diluted with up to 50% glycerol and stored at -20C to -80C. Freezing and thawing conjugated antibodies will compromise enzyme activity as well as antibody binding.
