EGFR Mouse Monoclonal Antibody [Clone ID: 2E9]

Specifications

Product Data
Clone Name	2E9
Applications	EM, IF, IHC, IP
Recommend Dilution	Immunoprecipitation. Immunoflourescence (1/25-1/100). Electron Microscopy. Immunogold Labeling. Immunohistochemistry on Frozen Sections (1/25). Immunohistochemistry on Paraffin Sections.
Reactivity	Human
Host	Mouse
Clonality	Monoclonal
Specificity	This antibody clone 2E9 reacts with a protein determinant of the extra cellular domain of the Human EGFR, and does not cross react with EGFR from Murine cells. Shows binding competition with EGF. The antibody also reacts in Immunoprecipitation with the functional EFR protein-tyrosine kinase complex. The antibody has no agonistic properties, but competes efficiently with EGF for binding to the receptor.
Formulation	PBS State: Purified State: Liquid purified IgG fraction Stabilizer: 1% BSA Preservative: 0.09% Sodium Azide
Concentration	lot specific
Conjugation	Unconjugated
Storage Condition	Store the antibody undiluted at 2-8°C.
Gene Name	epidermal growth factor receptor
Database Link	Entrez Gene 1956 Human UniProt ID P00533
Background	Protein kinases are enzymes that transfer a phosphate group from a phosphate donor onto an acceptor amino acid in a substrate protein. By this basic mechanism, protein kinases mediate most of the signal transduction in eukaryotic cells, regulating cellular metabolism, transcription, cell cycle progression, cytoskeletal rearrangement and cell movement, apoptosis, and differentiation. The protein kinase family is one of the largest families of proteins in eukaryotes, classified in 8 major groups based on sequence comparison of their tyrosine (PTK) or serine/threonine (STK) kinase catalytic domains. Epidermal Growth factor receptor (EGFR) is the prototype member of the type 1 receptor tyrosine kinases. EGFR overexpression in tumors indicates poor prognosis and is observed in tumors of the head and neck, brain, bladder, stomach, breast, lung, endometrium, cervix, vulva, ovary, esophagus, stomach and in squamous cell carcinoma.
Synonyms	Epidermal growth factor receptor, EGF Receptor, erbB-1, c-ErbB-1
