Reactivity: Human

Host: Rabbit

Clonality: Polyclonal

Conjugate: This MIA antibody is conjugated to Biotin

Application: Western Blotting (WB), Enzyme Immunoassay (EIA)

Product Details anti-MIA Antibody (Biotin)

Specificity: This antibody detects MIA.

Purification: Affinity Chromatography.

Immunogen: Highly pure (> 98%) recombinant Human MIA

Application Details

Application Notes: Direct ELISA: To detect Human MIA (using 100 μL/well antibody solution) a concentration ofapprox. 1.0 μg/mL of this antibody is required. It allows the detection of at least 0.2-0.4 ng/well ofrecombinant Human MIA. Sandwich ELISA: To detect Human MIA (using 100 μL/well antibody solution) aconcentration of 0.25-1.0 μg/mL of this antibody is required. In conjunction with PolyclonalAnti-Human MIA (ABIN181672 or ABIN181671) as a Capture antibody, it allows thedetection of at least 0.2-0.4 ng/well of recombinant Human MIA. Western blot: To detect Human MIA by Western Blot analysis this antibody can be used ata concentration of 0.1-0.2 μg/mL. Used in conjunction with compatible secondary reagentsthe detection limit for recombinant Human MIA is 1.5-3.0 ng/lane, under either reducing ornon-reducing conditions.
Other applications not tested.
Optimal dilutions are dependent on conditions and should be determined by the user.

Target Details for MIA

Target: MIA (Melanoma Inhibitory Activity (MIA))

Alternative Name: MIA

Background: Melanoma Inhibitory Activity (MIA) was originally identified as an inhibitor of the in vitro growth of malignant melanoma cells. It was the first discovered member of a family of secreted cytokines termed the MIA/OTOR family. The four known members of this family, Melanoma Inhibitory Activity, MIA2, OTOR and TANGO each contain a Src homology-3 (SH3)-like domain. Melanoma Inhibitory Activity is an autocrine growth regulatory protein secreted from chondrocytes and malignant melanoma cells that promotes melanoma metastasis by binding competitively to fibronectin and laminin in a manner that results in melanoma cell detachment from the extracellular matrix in vivo. Elevated levels of Melanoma Inhibitory Activity may represent a clinically useful marker for diagnosis of melanoma metastasis as well as a potential marker for rheumatoid arthritis.Synonyms: Melanoma inhibitory activity, Melanoma-derived growth regulatory protein
