Western Blotting (WB), ELISA, Immunohistochemistry (Paraffin-embedded Sections) (IHC (p))
Specificity
AIMP1 antibody is human, mouse and rat reactive. At least two isoforms of AIMP1 are known to exist, this antibody will recognize both isoforms. AIMP1 antibody is predicted to not cross-react with AIMP2.
Purification
AIMP1 antibody is affinity chromatography purified via peptide column.
Immunogen
AIMP1 antibody was raised against a 19 amino acid peptide near the carboxy terminus of human AIMP1. The immunogen is located within amino acids 240 - 290 of AIMP1.

(Aminoacyl tRNA Synthetase Complex-Interacting Multifunctional Protein 1 (AIMP1))
AIMP1 (Endothelial monocyte-activating polypeptide II, EMAP2) is a proinflammatory cytokine for monocytes and granulocytes (1). It is specifically induced by apoptosis and is involved in the control of angiogenesis, inflammation, and wound healing (1,2). AIMP1 was identified as one of three auxiliary factors of the mammalian aminoacyl tRNA synthetase (ARS) complex. It binds and facilitates the catalytic reaction of arginyl-tRNA synthetase (2,3). Recent studies show that CD23 plays an essential role in the AIMP1-induced immune response and might be a target in the treatment of inflammatory diseases (4).
