Related Product Information for anti-RAET1E antibody
Members of the RAET1 family, such as RAET1E, are major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class I-related genes located within a 180-kb cluster on chromosome 6q24.2-q25.3. RAET1 proteins contain MHC class I-like alpha-1 and alpha-2 domains. RAET1E and RAET1G (MIM 609244) differ from the other RAET1 proteins (e.g., RAET1I, or ULBP1; MIM 605697) in that they have type I membrane-spanning sequences at their C termini rather than glycosylphosphatidylinositol anchor sequences. RAET1E is a ligand for NKG2D (KLRK1; MIM 611817), which is expressed on the surface of several types of immune cells and is involved in innate and adaptive immune responses (summary by Radosavljevic et al. (2002) [PubMed 11827464] and Cao et al. (2007) [PubMed 17470428]).

NCBI Description
This gene belong to the RAET1 family, which consists of major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class I-related genes located in a cluster on chromosome 6q24.2-q25.3. This and RAET1G protein differ from other RAET1 proteins in that they have type I membrane-spanning sequences at their C termini rather than glycosylphosphatidylinositol anchor sequences. This protein functions as a ligand for NKG2D receptor, which is expressed on the surface of several types of immune cells, and is involved in innate and adaptive immune responses. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene.[provided by RefSeq, Aug 2011]

Product Notes
The RAET1E raet1e (Catalog #
AAA6340088) is an Antibody produced from Rabbit and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The RAET1E, ID (RAET1E, LETAL, N2DL4, ULBP4, NKG2D ligand 4, Lymphocyte effector toxicity activation ligand, RAE-1-like transcript 4, Retinoic acid early transcript 1E) (Biotin) reacts with Human and may cross-react with other species as described in the data sheet. AAA Biotech's RAET1E can be used in a range of immunoassay formats including, but not limited to, Western Blot (WB), ELISA (EIA). WB: 1:100-500 ELISA: 1:1,000 Applications are based on unconjugated antibody. Researchers should empirically determine the suitability of the RAET1E raet1e 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
"RAET1E, 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.
