Fas/Apo-1/CD95 is a cell surface type-I membrane glycoprotein with an apparent molecular weight of 44 kDa on SDS-PAGE. Fas is a member of the TNFR family that includes TNFR1, TNFR2, CD27, CD30, and CD40. Binding of Fas-ligand (FasL) to Fas or crosslinking of Fas by anti-Fas monoclonal antibodies leads to apoptosis in Fas expressing cells. Both Fas and TNF-R contain the 70 amino acids cytoplasmic “death domain” that is responsible for transmitting signal for apoptosis.

Synthetic peptide corresponding to residues surrounding amino acid 32 of mouse Fas

0.5 mg/ml

Liquid

100 µg (0.5 mg/ml) affinity purified polyclonal antibody in phosphate buffered saline (PBS), pH 7.2, containing 30% glycerol, 0.5% BSA, 0.01% thimerosal.

Affinity purified

Western blot and Immunohistochemistry

Western blotting (0.5-4 µg/ml) and Immunohistochemistry (5 µg/ml). However, the optimal conditions should be determined individually. The purified antibody detects a 55 kDa of glycosylated Fas, a 35 kDa native form of Fas and a 29 kDa of cleaved Fas fragment on SDS-PAGE immunoblots.

Shelf time: 12 months in temp.: -20 deg.C

gel pack

The antibody solution should be gently mixed before use.

This antibody needs to be stored at + 4°C in a fridge short term in a concentrated dilution. Freeze thaw will destroy a percentage in every cycle and should be avoided.

If you buy Antibodies supplied by Biovision they should be stored frozen at - 24°C for long term storage and for short term at + 5°C.
