General Notes
This product (Catalog No. DPABH-02382) is a rabbit-derived polyclonal antibody raised against human VAV3, targeting the amino acid region 546–847 of the protein. It has been affinity purified by Protein A. Vav3, a member of Dbl family which is also the activator of GTP kinase of Rho family, can activate the expression of RhoA, Racl and Cdc42 (PMID:28285969). Vav3 is associated with tumor growth, apoptosis, invasion, metastasis and angiogenesis (PMID:28285969). Vav3 is a multiple function protein with both signaling molecule and coactivator activities. Vav3 oncogene is overexpressed in androgen-independent prostate cancer cells relative to their androgen-dependent counterparts and contribute to development of hormone refractory prostate cancer (PMID:21455584).
DPABH-02382 is suitable for use in Western blot (WB) (1:2,000–1:16,000), IP (0.5-4.0 μg for 1.0-3.0 mg of total protein lysate), IHC (1:50–1:500), IF/ICC (1:50–1:500), flow cytometry (FC) (0.40 μg per 10^6 cells in a 100 μl suspension) applications.
DPABH-02382 is supplied as a liquid formulation in PBS with 0.02% sodium azide and 50% glycerol, pH 7.3. For long-term storage, keep at −20 °C. For short-term use, store at 2–8 °C. Avoid repeated freeze–thaw cycles to maintain antibody integrity and performance.
