Related Product Information for anti-Axl antibody
AXL is an 887aa proto-oncogene belonging to the protein kinase super family with a protein kinase domain, two Ig-like C2-type (immunoglobulin-like) domains and two fibronectin type-III domains. Unlike other receptor tyrosine kinases, AXL represents a unique novel structure in the extracellular region that juxtaposes IgL and FNIII repeats. AXL may function as a signal transducer between specific cell types of mesodermal origin and may transduce signals from the extracellular matrix into the cytoplasm by binding to growth factors like vitamin K-dependent protein growth-arrest-specific gene 6 (GAS6) and thus form heterodimer and heterotetramer. It plays an important role in the stimulation of cell proliferation and can also mediate cell aggregation by homophilic binding. In the case of filovirus infection, AXL seems to function as a cell entry factor. Studies reveal the transforming potential of AXL in patients with chronic myeloproliferative disorder or chronic myelocytic leukemia.
Product Categories/Family for anti-Axl antibody
NCBI Description
The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the Tyro3-Axl-Mer (TAM) receptor tyrosine kinase subfamily. The encoded protein possesses an extracellular domain which is composed of two immunoglobulin-like motifs at the N-terminal, followed by two fibronectin type-III motifs. It transduces signals from the extracellular matrix into the cytoplasm by binding to the vitamin K-dependent protein growth arrest-specific 6 (Gas6). This gene may be involved in several cellular functions including growth, migration, aggregation and anti-inflammation in multiple cell types. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants of this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2013]
Product Notes
The Axl (Catalog #
AAA6370804) is an Antibody produced from Rabbit and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The Axl (AXL Oncogene, AXL Receptor Tyrosine Kinase, AXL Transforming Gene, AXL Transforming Sequence/gene, Adhesion-related Kinase, Ark, Oncogene AXL, Tyrosine Protein Kinase Receptor, UFO, TYR07) (AP) reacts with Human and may cross-react with other species as described in the data sheet. AAA Biotech's Axl can be used in a range of immunoassay formats including, but not limited to, Western Blot (WB). Applications are based on unconjugated antibody. Researchers should empirically determine the suitability of the Axl 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
"Axl, 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.
