NCBI and Uniprot Product Information
NCBI Description
This gene is a member of the immunophilin family. The encoded protein is a cis-trans prolyl isomerase that binds the immunosuppressants FK506 and rapamycin, and is associated with immunoregulation, protein folding, receptor signaling, protein trafficking and T-cell activation. It may modulate the calcium release activity of the ryanodine receptor Ryr1. It also interacts with the type I TGF-beta receptor. Disruption of this gene in mouse causes severe ventricular defects. Pseudogenes of this gene have been defined on chromosomes 4, 10, 14, and 16. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Sep 2014]
Uniprot Description
FKBP12: an immunophilin and peptidyl-prolyl cis-trans isomerase that binds to the immunosuppressant drugs FK506 (a.k.a. tacrolimus or Fujimycin) and rapamycin (a.k.a. Sirolimus). The FKBP12/rapamycin complex binds NFAT transcription factors and inhibits the induction of T cell genes including IL-2, IL-3, IL-4, TNF-alpha and GM-CSF. FK506 is used in treating patients after organ transplant and those suffering from autoimmune disorders. The immunosuppressant activity of FKBP12 is not apparently related to its prolyl isomerase activity. The FKBP12/rapamycin complex inhibits the mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) pathway by directly binding the mTOR Complex1 (mTORC1). mTORC1 contains Raptor, mLST8, and PRAS40, and interacts with DEPTOR, which inhibits its activity. mTOR, a S/T protein kinase, is a central regulator of cellular growth and metabolism. Its inhibition enhances the dependence on aerobic glycolysis in leukemic cells.

Product Notes
The FKBP12 fkbp1a (Catalog #AAA840350) is an Antibody produced from Rabbit and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The FKBP12 Antibody reacts with Human, Mouse, Rat, Bovine, Rabbit and may cross-react with other species as described in the data sheet. AAA Biotech's FKBP12 can be used in a range of immunoassay formats including, but not limited to, Western Blot (WB), Immunohistochemistry (IHC), Immunoprecipitation (IP). The antibody performs well on Western blot (WB) (0.5-4 ug/ml). Based on researchers feed back, the antibody also works well immunoprecipitation (2-10 ug/mL) and immunohistochemistry (2-10 ug/ml). However, the optimal conditions should be determined individually. Researchers should empirically determine the suitability of the FKBP12 fkbp1a 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 "FKBP12, 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.Precautions
