Immunohistochemistry (IHC)

(Formalin-fixed and paraffin-embedded human cancer tissue reacted with the primary antibody, which was peroxidase-conjugated to the secondary antibody, followed by DAB staining. This data demonstrates the use of this antibody for immunohistochemistry; clinical relevance has not been evaluated. BC = breast carcinoma; HC = hepatocarcinoma.)

Related Product Information for anti-FNTB antibody
Eukaryotic cells contain 3 different types of prenyltransferases that attach either a farnesyl group (15 carbons) or a geranylgeranyl group (20 carbons) in thioether linkage to C-terminal cysteine residues in a variety of proteins. These posttranslational modifications provide a mechanism for membrane localization of proteins that lack a transmembrane domain. CAAX farnesyltransferase (FTase) attaches a farnesyl group from farnesyl pyrophosphate to cysteine residues at the fourth position from the C terminus of proteins that end in the CAAX box, where C is cysteine, A is usually but not always an aliphatic amino acid, and X is typically methionine or serine. This enzyme has the ability to farnesylate peptides as short as 4 residues in length that conform to the CAAX consensus sequence. The gene for the beta subunit of CAAX farnesyltransferase (FNTB) has been pinpointed to 14q23-q24 by Southern blot hybridization and PCR analyses of panels of human/Chinese hamster somatic cell hybrid lines and by fluorescence chromosomal in situ hybridization.

Chromosomal Location of Human Ortholog: 14q23.3

Cellular Component: microtubule associated complex; cytosol

Molecular Function: protein binding; farnesyltranstransferase activity; isoprenoid binding; zinc ion binding; drug binding; peptide binding; protein farnesyltransferase activity

Biological Process: rhodopsin mediated signaling; negative regulation of cell proliferation; phototransduction, visible light; positive regulation of fibroblast proliferation; protein farnesylation; response to inorganic substance; regulation of rhodopsin mediated signaling; wound healing; response to cytokine stimulus; positive regulation of cell cycle; response to organic cyclic substance; positive regulation of nitric-oxide synthase biosynthetic process

Product Notes

The FNTB fntb (Catalog #AAA9207719) is an Antibody produced from Rabbit and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The immunogen sequence is 6-36. The FNTB Antibody (N-term) reacts with Human (Predicted Reactivity: Bovine, Rat) and may cross-react with other species as described in the data sheet. AAA Biotech's FNTB can be used in a range of immunoassay formats including, but not limited to, ELISA (EIA), Immunohistochemistry (IHC), Western Blot (WB). WB~~1:1000. Researchers should empirically determine the suitability of the FNTB fntb 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 "FNTB, 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.
