Description: This antibody reacts with the C-terminus of TGF alpha and shows no cross-reaction with EGF and the neuropeptide synenkephalin. TGF-a is a growth factor with 33% homology to EGF, binds to EGFR, activates tyrosine phosphorylation of the receptor, and stimulates cell proliferation. It plays a role in tumor initiation by inducing the reversible transformed phenotype.
Immunogen: A 17-amino acid peptide from the C-terminus of the rat protein was used as the immunogen for this TGF a antibody.
Storage: Store the TGF-a antibody at 2-8oC (with azide) or aliquot and store at -20 °C or colder (without azide).
