HER2 Antibody / ErbB2

SKU: orb2638131

Description

This antibody recognizes a protein of 185kDa, which is identified as HER2 / ErbB2. Its epitope is localized in the extracellular domain. HER2 is a member of the EGFR family. This antibody is specific and shows minimal cross-reaction with other members of the EGFR-family. Receptors of this family are located on the plasma membrane and consist of an extracellular ligand-binding domain that is connected to a large intracellular domain by a single transmembrane sequence. HER2 / ErbB2 protein is over-expressed in a variety of carcinomas especially those of breast and ovary.

Images & Validation

• Tested Applications: ELISA, FACS, IF
• Dilution Range: ELISA (order BSA/sodium azide-free format for coating),Flow cytometry: 1-2ug/million cells,Immunofluorescence: 1-2ug/ml
• Reactivity: Human
• Application Notes:
  The concentration stated for each application is a general starting point. Variations in protocols, secondaries and substrates may require the antibody to be titered up or down for optimal performance.1. This HER2 antibody binds to the extracellular/cell surface region of the protein.
