Western Blot (WB) (Western Blot using anti-folate receptor antibody Mouse heart (lane 1), mouse lung (lane 2), mouse pancreas (lane 3), mouse testis (lane 4) and rat ovary (lane 5)samples were resolved on a 12% SDS PAGE gel and blots probed at 1.5 ug/ml before being detected by a secondary antibody. Bands correspondig to the expected 29 kDa folate receptor protein as well as dimers thereof were detected.)

Clone Note
The antibody binds specifically to FRbeta, a member of the folate receptor family. The receptor binds with high affinity to folic acid and folic acid derivatives, and transports 5-methyltetrahydrofolate into the cell. The receptor is expressed on the surface of tumour associated macrophages (TAMs) that promote growth and metastasis of tumours such as gliomas and colon, breast and lung carcinomas. Research has shown FRbeta is only expressed on activated macrophages, and thereby a monoclonal antibody that targets the receptor can be useful in the test of the cancer. Furthermore, the antibody may be conjugated with a toxin, delivering the drug only to TAMs and not to healthy macrophages.
Buffer Composition
PBS only with 0.02% Proclin 300.
Preparation and Storage
Store at 4 degree C for up to 3 months. For longer storage, aliquot and store at -20 degree C.

NCBI Description

This gene encodes a receptor protein located on the plasma membrane that mediates folate uptake by cells. Mice lacking the product of this gene show no defects in embryonic development and grow normally into fertile adults. However, such mice were found to be highly susceptible to the teratogenic effects of arsenic. Alternate splicing of this gene results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Dec 2014]

Product Notes

The Frbeta folr2 (Catalog #AAA488432) is a Recombinant Antibody and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The Anti-Folate Receptor beta [CL10] reacts with Mouse and may cross-react with other species as described in the data sheet. AAA Biotech's Folate Receptor beta can be used in a range of immunoassay formats including, but not limited to, Western Blot (WB), Immunohistochemistry (IHC). Researchers should empirically determine the suitability of the Frbeta folr2 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 "Folate Receptor beta, Monoclonal Recombinant 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.
