Product Details anti-Reticulon 1A Antibody

Specificity: Human, mouse, hamster and rat.

Purification: Purified

Immunogen: MON-160 is a mouse monoclonal IgG1 antibody derived by fusion of mouse myeloma cells with spleen cells from a mouse immunized with a partially purified bacterially expressed Reticulon-1A (NSP-A) hybrid protein (beta-GAL-NSP-A 6-776 ).

Isotype: IgG1

Application Details

Application Notes: MON-160 exclusively recognizes the 135 kD Reticulon-1A protein in immunoblots of NCI-H82 and other SCLC cell lines, and stains normal and pathological neural and neuroendocrine tissues. The epitope of MON-160 is located between amino acid residues 174-337 of Reticulon-1A. MON-160 is useful for immunocytochemistry, immunohistochemistry on frozen and paraffin-embedded tissue, immunoblotting and flow cytometry. Optimal antibody dilution should be determined by titration, recommended range is 1:50 - 1:100 for flow cytometry, and for immunohistochemistry with avidin-biotinylated horseradish peroxidase complex (ABC) as detection reagent, and 1:50 - 1:500 for immunoblotting applications.

Restrictions: For Research Use only

Handling

Storage: 4 °C

Target Details for Reticulon 1A

Target: Reticulon 1A

Alternative Name: Reticulon-1A / NSP-A

Background: Recently, a novel gene family has been identified and characterized, designated the Reticulons because the proteins encoded by these genes are anchored to the membranes of the endoplasmic reticulum. Reticulon-1 was formerly designated NSP for Neuroendocrine-Specific-Protein, because it is specifically expressed in neural and neuroendocrine tissues. The NSP-gene has been mapped by fluorescence in situ hybridization to human chromosome 14q21-q22. The NSP-gene encodes three overlapping proteins, i.e. Reticulon-1A (NSP-A), Reticulon-1B (NSP-B), and Reticulon-1C (NSP-C). These proteins were found to be anchored to membranes of the endoplasmic reticulum through their common carboxy-terminal regions. Reticulon-1A is a protein with a molecular weight (MW) of about 135 kDa, which occurs in various isoforms presumably depending on the degree of phosphorylation of serine residues. In lung cancer diagnosis Reticulon-1A appeared to be a reliable marker for the detection of neuroendocrine differentiation, since most of the small cell lung carcinoma (SCLC) and carcinoid tumors showed expression of Reticulon-1A. Reticulon-1B is a phosphoprotein with a MW of 45 kDa and is restricted to the lung cancer cell line NCI-H82. Reticulon-1B is sofar not found in human tissues. Reticulon-1C is a protein with a MW of 23 kDa which is not phosphorylated and is found with Reticulon-1A in SCLC (cell lines) and not in non-SCLC (cell cultures).
