The antibody detects endogenous level of total Smad3 protein.
Purification
The antibody was affinity-purified from rabbit antiserum by affinity-chromatography usingepitope-specific immunogen.
Immunogen
Peptide sequence around AA 423-427 (C-S-S-V-S) derived from Human Smad3. Antibodies were produced by immunizing rabbits with synthetic peptide and KLH conjugates.

Background
Smad3 encoded by this gene belongs to the SMAD, a family of proteins similar to the gene products of the Drosophila gene 'mothers against decapentaplegic' (Mad) and the C. elegans gene Sma. SMAD proteins are signal transducers and transcriptional modulators that mediate multiple signaling pathways. This protein functions as a transcriptional modulator activated by transforming growth factor-beta and is thought to play a role in the regulation of carcinogenesis.
