Chicken S100 Calcium-Binding Protein A2 Polyclonal Antibody | anti-S100A2 antibody
S100 Calcium-Binding Protein A2 Chicken Polyclonal Antibody
To avoid freeze-thaw cycles, reconstituted antibody should be aliquoted before freezing for short-term storage (-20°C) or for long-term storage (-80°C).
For maximum recovery of product, centrifuge the original vial prior to removing the cap. Further dilutions can be made in assay buffer. After the maximum long-term storage period (2 years lyophilized or 1 year reconstituted) antibodies should be tested in your assay with a standard sample to verify if you have noticed any decrease in their efficacy. To limit antibody loss or degradation, BSA (final concentration 1%) and sodium azide (final concentration 0.02%) can be added to the suggested first dilution. It is important to first verify if those preservatives are compatible with your assay.
Immunohistochemistry (IHC)
(Paraffin embedded pig coronary artery tissue section was stained for S100A2 presence with the anti-chicken IgY and the reaction was visualized with anti-chicken antibody (red). DNA was stained with DAPI (blue) and the smooth muscle layer with rabbit anti-smooth muscle actin (green). S100A2 shows significant staining In lhe endothelial cell layer)
NCBI and Uniprot Product Information
NCBI Description
The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the S100 family of proteins containing 2 EF-hand calcium-binding motifs. S100 proteins are localized in the cytoplasm and/or nucleus of a wide range of cells, and involved in the regulation of a number of cellular processes such as cell cycle progression and differentiation. S100 genes include at least 13 members which are located as a cluster on chromosome 1q21. This protein may have a tumor suppressor function. Chromosomal rearrangements and altered expression of this gene have been implicated in breast cancer. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
Uniprot Description
May function as calcium sensor and modulator, contributing to cellular calcium signaling. May function by interacting with other proteins, such as TPR-containing proteins, and indirectly play a role in many physiological processes. May also play a role in suppressing tumor cell growth.

Product Notes
The S100A2 s100a2 (Catalog #AAA588232) is an Antibody produced from Chicken and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "S100 Calcium-Binding Protein A2, 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
