| Alternative Name: | TACE, a disintegrin and metalloproteinase |
| |
| Purity Detail: | Peptide affinity purified. |
| |
| Formulation: | Liquid. In PBS containing 0.02% sodium azide. |
| |
| Immunogen: | Synthetic peptide corresponding to the sequence near the C-terminus of human ADAM17. |
| |
| Source/Host: | From rabbit. |
| |
| Specificity: | Recognizes human, mouse and rat ADAM17. Detects bands of ~80 to ~130kDa (may represent mature protein, precursor, and glycosylated TACE) by Western blot. |
| |
| Application: | Immunocytochemistry Western Blot (1:500-1:2000) Optimal conditions must be determined individually for each application. |
| |
| Long Term Storage: | +4°C |
| |
| Miscellaneous/General: | TNF-alpha converting enzyme (TACE) is a membrane-bound metalloprotease-disintegrin in the family of mammalian ADAM (for a disintegrin and metalloprotease), and is responsible for the cleavage of membrane-bound precursor TNF-alpha to its mature, secreted form. TACE also processes other cell surface proteins, including TNF receptor, TGFalpha, the L-selectin adhesion molecule, and alpha-cleavage of amyloid protein precursor (APP). |
