Related Product Information for anti-AIF1 antibody
AIF1, allograft inflammatory factor-1, (also known as Iba1, Ionized calcium binding adaptor molecule 1) is a 17 kDa protein that is a pro-inflammatory molecule that mediates calcium signals (Ito, D. et al 1998). During inflammation, increased expression of AIF1 occurs in microglia, macrophages, T-cells, synoviocytes, and adipocytes (Watano, K., et al, 2001). Expression of AIF-1 has been observed in healthy brains and varies throughout the day, gaining the highest expression in the prefrontal and parietal cortices when sleeping (Romcy-Pereira, R.N, et al, 2009). Increased expression of AIF1 has been observed in several diseases including breast cancer (Liu, S., et al 2008), atherosclerosis (Utans, U., et al, 1995), and rheumatoid arthritis (Kimura, M., et al, 2007).

NCBI Description

This gene is induced by cytokines and interferon. Its protein product is thought to be involved in negative regulation of growth of vascular smooth muscle cells, which contributes to the anti-inflammatory response to vessel wall trauma. Three transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Sep 2008]

Uniprot Description

AIF1: Actin-binding protein that enhances membrane ruffling and RAC activation. Enhances the actin-bundling activity of LCP1. Binds calcium. Plays a role in RAC signaling and in phagocytosis. May play a role in macrophage activation and function. Promotes the proliferation of vascular smooth muscle cells and of T- lymphocytes. Enhances lymphocyte migration. Plays a role in vascular inflammation. 3 isoforms of the human protein are produced by alternative splicing.

Protein type: Cytoskeletal

Chromosomal Location of Human Ortholog: 6p21.3

Cellular Component: perinuclear region of cytoplasm; lamellipodium; cytoplasm; actin filament; perikaryon; nucleus; cytosol; phagocytic cup

Molecular Function: actin filament binding; calcium ion binding

Biological Process: actin filament bundle formation; positive regulation of nitric oxide biosynthetic process; negative regulation of smooth muscle cell proliferation; positive regulation of smooth muscle cell proliferation; microglial cell activation; Rac protein signal transduction; cellular response to hormone stimulus; actin filament polymerization; positive regulation of muscle hyperplasia; cellular response to extracellular stimulus; positive regulation of T cell proliferation; response to axon injury; positive regulation of protein amino acid phosphorylation; phagocytosis, engulfment; response to electrical stimulus; inflammatory response; negative regulation of apoptosis

Product Notes

The AIF1 aif1 (Catalog #AAA502229) is an Antibody produced from Rabbit and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The AIF1/Iba1 reacts with Reactivity assumed based on 100% sequence homology: Human and may cross-react with other species as described in the data sheet. AAA Biotech's AIF1/Iba1 can be used in a range of immunoassay formats including, but not limited to, Western Blot (WB), Immunocystochemistry (ICC). WB: 1:1000 ICC: 1:500. Researchers should empirically determine the suitability of the AIF1 aif1 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 "AIF1/Iba1, Polyclonal 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.
