p73ΔN antibody (mAb)

for p73DN antibody (mAb) (Clone 38C674)Application Notes

Validated Applications:
WB: 1 - 2 µg/ml dilution

For optimal results, primary antibody incubations should be performed at room temperature. The addition of 0.1% Tween 20 to all Blotto solutions may also reduce background. Individual optimization may be required.

for p73DN antibody (mAb) (Clone 38C674)Immunogen

This p73DN antibody was raised against a peptide corresponding to amino acid residues 2-13 of human p73ΔN. This antibody does not cross react with full-length p73.

for p73DN antibody (mAb) (Clone 38C674)Background

p73ΔN is a member of the p53 protein family which includes p53 as well as p63. Whereas p53 transactivates the retinoblastoma gene, p63 and p73 induce the cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor p57 to maintain Rb in an active, hypophosphorylated state. p73ΔN inhibits the functions of the p53 family in differentiation control, prevents myogenic differentiation, and enables cooperating oncogenes to transform myoblasts to tumorigenicity. p73ΔN is frequently overexpressed in rhabdomyosarcoma and is essential for tumor progression in vivo. These findings establish differentiation control as a key tumor suppressor activity of the p53 family.

Extracts from cells transfected with p73ΔN cDNA can be used as a positive control for p73ΔN antibody.

for p73DN antibody (mAb) (Clone 38C674)Storage

Some products may be shipped at room temperature. This will not affect their stability or performance. Upon receipt, unconjugated antibodies may be stored at -20°C for up to 2 years. Fluorophore- & enzyme-conjugated antibodies should be stored at 4°C. Fluorophore-conjugated antibodies should be protected from light. Keep reagents on ice when not in storage; to avoid repeated freeze/thaw cycles, we recommend aliquoting items that will be stored frozen into single-use fractions prior to freezing.
