Western Blotting (WB), ELISA, Immunofluorescence (IF), Immunocytochemistry (ICC)
Purification
NALP1 Antibody is immunoaffinity chromatography purified IgG.
Immunogen
NALP1 antibody was raised against a peptide corresponding to 13 amino acids near the carboxy terminus of human NALP1. The immunogen is located within the last 50 amino acids of NALP1.
NALP1 antibody can be used for detection of NALP1 by Western blot at 1 to 4 μ,g/mL. Antibody can also be used for immunocytochemistry starting at 10 μ,g/mL. For immunofluorescence start at 20 μ,g/mL.
Antibody validated: Western Blot in human samples, Immunocytochemistry in human samples and Immunofluorescence in human samples. All other applications and species not yet tested.

NALP1 Antibody: NALP1 belongs to a family of cytoplasmic proteins that have been implicated in cell responses to apoptotic and inflammatory stimuli. It contains a caspase recruitment domain (CARD) in addition to a NACHT domain and leucine rich repeat (LRR). This protein interacts strongly with caspase 2 and weakly with caspase 9, as well as with Apaf-1. Transient overexpression of this gene in cultured cells was sufficient to induce apoptosis. NALP1 mRNA and protein expression levels in myeloid leukemia cells are increased following CREB (cAMP-response element binding protein) activation, suggesting that NALP1 may contribute to modulate the response of these cells to pro-inflammatory stimuli. Multiple alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding distinct isoforms have been found for NALP1.
