ADAM15 belongs to a family of transmembrane proteins that contain disintegrin and metalloprotease domains. Members of this family have been implicated in cell adhesion via integrin binding and shedding of cell surface molecules.
Applications:
Suitable for use in Flow Cytometry, Western Blot, Immunoprecipitation, Immunocytochemistry and Direct ELISA. Other applications not tested.
Recommended Dilutions:
Flow Cytometry: 25ug/ml. 10ul labels 1-2.5x10e5 cells in a total reaction (same/less than)200ul.
Immunocytochemistry: 10ug/ml. Cells fixed with PBS containing 4% paraformaldehyde and blocked with PBS containing 10% normal donkey serum, 0.1% Triton X-100 and 1% BSA. After blocking, cells were incubated with diluted A0859-31B followed by labeled anti-mouse IgG.
Western Blot: 1-2ug/ml. Detects ~5ng/lane of rhADAM15 under non-reducing conditions.
Immunoprecipitation: 25ug/ml
Direct ELISA: 1ug/ml detects ~0.3ng rhADAM15/well.
Optimal dilutions to be determined by the researcher.
Positive Control:
MCF-7 cells
Storage and Stability:
Lyophilized powder may be stored at -20 degrees C. Stable for 12 months at -20 degrees C. Reconstitute with sterile PBS. Aliquot to avoid repeated freezing and thawing. Store at -20 degrees C. Reconstituted product is stable for 12 months at -20 degrees C. For maximum recovery of product, centrifuge the original vial after thawing and prior to removing the cap.
