Mouse anti-Human, mouse MET/HGFR Monoclonal Antibody | anti-MET antibody
MET/HGFR Antibody
WB~~1:100~500
Immunofluorescence (IF)
(Fluorescent confocal image of HepG2 cells stained with MET/HGFR antibody. HepG2 cells were fixed with 4% PFA (20 min), permeabilized with Triton X-100 (0.2%, 30 min). Cells were then incubated with MBS9200046 MET/HGFR primary antibody (1:200, 2 h at room temperature). For secondary antibody, Alexa Fluor 488 conjugated donkey anti-mouse antibody (green) was used (1:1000, 1h). Nuclei were counterstained with Hoechst 33342 (blue) (10 ug/ml, 5 min). Note the highly specific localization of the MET immunosignal to the cytoplasm, supported by Human Protein Atlas Data (http://www.proteinatlas.org/ENSG00000105976).)
Western Blot (WB)
(Detection of endogenous Met in HepG2 cell line. 10 ug/lane of HepG2 cell lysate was used to examine the expression of human Met. Lanes 1-5 represent MyBioSource ’s different anti-Met monoclonal antibodies that are. Lane 6 represents auto-phosohorylated-Met in HepG2 cell line detected by anti-phospho-Met Mab.)

NCBI and Uniprot Product Information
NCBI Description
The proto-oncogene MET product is the hepatocyte growth factor receptor and encodes tyrosine-kinase activity. The primary single chain precursor protein is post-translationally cleaved to produce the alpha and beta subunits, which are disulfide linked to form the mature receptor. Various mutations in the MET gene are associated with papillary renal carcinoma. Two transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
Uniprot Description
Met: a proto-oncogenic receptor tyrosine kinase with high affinity for hepatocyte growth factor. The primary single chain precursor protein is post-translationally cleaved to produce the 45 kDa alpha- and 145 kDa beta-subunits, which are disulfide linked to form the mature receptor. Ligand-binding induces autophosphorylation at multiple tyrosines, which recruit several downstream signaling components, including Gab1, c-Cbl and PI3 kinase. Activating point mutations cause hereditary papillary renal carcinoma. Mutations also seen in sporadic renal cell carcinoma and childhood hepatocellular carcinoma. Upregulation in carcinomas and sarcomas correlates with metastasis and poor outcome. Some gastric carcinomas harbor a translocation that creates an activated TPR-Met fusion protein. A small molecule inhibitor (PHA-665752) shows an effect in gastric carcinoma xenografts. Inhibitors: SU11274, PHA-665752, mAbs. Two alternatively spliced human isoforms have been reported.

Product Notes
The MET met (Catalog #AAA9200046) is an Antibody produced from Mouse and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The MET/HGFR Antibody reacts with Human, mouse and may cross-react with other species as described in the data sheet. AAA Biotech's MET/HGFR can be used in a range of immunoassay formats including, but not limited to, Immunofluorescence (IF), ELISA (EIA), Western Blot (WB). IF~~1:200 WB~~1:100~500. Researchers should empirically determine the suitability of the MET met for an application not listed in the data sheet. Researchers commonly develop new applications and it is an integral, important part of the investigative research process. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "MET/HGFR, Monoclonal Antibody" to become dispersed throughout the inside of the vial, particularly around the seal of said vial, during shipment and storage. We always suggest centrifuging these vials to consolidate all of the liquid away from the lid and to the bottom of the vial prior to opening. Please be advised that certain products may require dry ice for shipping and that, if this is the case, an additional dry ice fee may also be required.Precautions
