Semaphorin 3A (SEMA3A) Active Protein | SEMA3A active protein
Active Semaphorin 3A (SEMA3A)
Activity Data
(The Semaphorin 3A (SEMA3A) which belongs to the semaphorin family can function as either a chemorepulsive agent, inhibiting axonal outgrowth, or as a chemoattractive agent, stimulating the growth of apical dendrites. In both cases, the protein is vital for normal neuronal pattern development. Semaphorin 3A is secreted protein containing a Sema domain, an immunoglobulin C2-like domain and a basic domain near the carboxyl tail. It can be secreted by neurons and surrounding tissue to guide migrating cells and axons in the developing nervous system. Besides, Neuropilin 1 (NRP1) has been identified as an interactor of SEMA3A, thus a binding ELISA assay was conducted to detect the interaction of recombinant human SEMA3A and recombinant human NRP1. Briefly, SEMA3A were diluted serially in PBS, with 0.01% BSA (pH 7.4). Duplicate samples of 100uL were then transferred to NRP1-coated microtiter wells and incubated for 2h at 37 degree C. Wells were washed with PBST and incubated for 1h with anti-SEMA3A pAb, then aspirated and washed 3 times. After incubation with HRP labelled secondary antibody, wells were aspirated and washed 3 times. With the addition of substrate solution, wells were incubated 15-25 minutes at 37 degree C. Finally, add 50uL stop solution to the wells and read at 450nm immediately. The binding activity of SEMA3A and NRP1 was shown in Figure 1, and this effect was in a dose dependent manner.)

NCBI and Uniprot Product Information
Accurate Molecular Weight: 16kDa
NCBI Description
This gene is a member of the semaphorin family and encodes a protein with an Ig-like C2-type (immunoglobulin-like) domain, a PSI domain and a Sema domain. This secreted protein can function as either a chemorepulsive agent, inhibiting axonal outgrowth, or as a chemoattractive agent, stimulating the growth of apical dendrites. In both cases, the protein is vital for normal neuronal pattern development. Increased expression of this protein is associated with schizophrenia and is seen in a variety of human tumor cell lines. Also, aberrant release of this protein is associated with the progression of Alzheimer's disease. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

Product Notes
The SEMA3A sema3a (Catalog #AAA2097322) is an Active Protein produced from E Coli and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. AAA Biotech's Semaphorin 3A (SEMA3A) can be used in a range of immunoassay formats including, but not limited to, Cell culture, Activity Assays. Researchers should empirically determine the suitability of the SEMA3A sema3a 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 "Semaphorin 3A (SEMA3A), Active Protein" 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
