Cat no: F4208-57G

Fibroblast Activation Protein alpha (FAPa, FAP, 170kD Melanoma Membrane-bound Gelatinase, DKFZP686G13158, DPPIV, EC 3.4.21.-, Integral Membrane Serine Protease, Seprase)

FAP alpha a type II membrane protein belonging to the serine protease family. FAP alpha is upregulated on activated fibroblasts in response to wounding, and may also be involved in epithelial-mesenchymal interactions during development and tissue repair. Active FAP alpha is a 170kD homodimeric protein which can also exist as a soluble form. FAP alpha can also form heterodimeric complexes with CD26 (DPP4), and these proteins may function co-ordinately to modulate the growth, differentiation, adhesion and metastasis of tumor cells.\n\nApplications:\nSuitable for use in Immunohistochemistry. Other applications not tested.\n\nRecommended Dilutions:\nImmunohistochemistry (Paraffin): 10ug/ml. Requires antigen retrieval using heat treatment prior to staining of paraffin sections. Sodium citrate buffer pH 6.0 is recommended.\nOptimal dilutions to be determined by the researcher.\n\nPositive Control: \nUterus\n\nStorage and Stability:\nMay be stored at 4 degrees C for short-term only. Aliquot to avoid repeated freezing and thawing. Store at -20 degrees C. Aliquots are stable for 12 months.
