Background of Integrin alpha 6/CD49f
Integrin alpha-6, also called VLA-6 or ITGA6B is a protein that in humans is encoded by the ITGA6 gene. This gene is mapped to 2q31.1. The ITGA6 protein product is the integrin alpha chain alpha 6. Integrins are integral cell-surface proteins composed of an alpha chain and a beta chain. A given chain may combine with multiple partners resulting in different integrins. For example, alpha 6 may combine with beta 4 in the integrin referred to as TSP180, or with beta 1 in the integrin VLA-6. Integrins are known to participate in cell adhesion as well as cell-surface mediated signalling. Integrin alpha-6/beta-1 is a receptor for laminin on platelets. Integrin alpha-6/beta-4 is a receptor for laminin in epithelial cells and it plays a critical structural role in the hemidesmosome.
Antibody Validation

Figure 1. Western blot analysis of ITGA6 using anti-ITGA6 antibody (A01693).
Electrophoresis was performed on a 5-20% SDS-PAGE gel at 70V (Stacking gel) / 90V (Resolving gel) for 2-3 hours. The sample well of each lane was loaded with 30 ug of sample under reducing conditions.
Lane 1: human A431 whole cell lysates,
Lane 2: human A549 whole cell lysates,
Lane 3: rat kidney tissue lysates,
Lane 4: mouse kidney tissue lysates.
After electrophoresis, proteins were transferred to a nitrocellulose membrane at 150 mA for 50-90 minutes. Blocked the membrane with 5% non-fat milk/TBS for 1.5 hour at RT. The membrane was incubated with rabbit anti-ITGA6 antigen affinity purified polyclonal antibody (Catalog # A01693) at 0.5 μg/mL overnight at 4°C, then washed with TBS-0.1%Tween 3 times with 5 minutes each and probed with a goat anti-rabbit IgG-HRP secondary antibody at a dilution of 1:5000 for 1.5 hour at RT. The signal is developed using an Enhanced Chemiluminescent detection (ECL) kit (Catalog # EK1002) with Tanon 5200 system. A specific band was detected for ITGA6 at approximately 127 kDa. The expected band size for ITGA6 is at 127 kDa.

Figure 2. Flow Cytometry analysis of HepG2 cells using anti-ITGA6 antibody (A01693).
Overlay histogram showing HepG2 cells stained with A01693 (Blue line). The cells were fixed with 4% paraformaldehyde and blocked with 10% normal goat serum. And then incubated with rabbit anti-ITGA6 Antibody (A01693, 1 μg/1x106 cells) for 30 min at 20°C. DyLight®488 conjugated goat anti-rabbit IgG (BA1127, 5-10 μg/1x106 cells) was used as secondary antibody for 30 minutes at 20°C. Isotype control antibody (Green line) was rabbit IgG (1 μg/1x106) used under the same conditions. Unlabelled sample (Red line) was also used as a control.

Question
We are currently using anti-Integrin alpha 6/ITGA6 antibody A01693 for mouse tissue, and we are happy with the ELISA results. The species of reactivity given in the datasheet says human, mouse, rat. Is it possible that the antibody can work on pig tissues as well?

Answer
The anti-Integrin alpha 6/ITGA6 antibody (A01693) has not been tested for cross reactivity specifically with pig tissues, though there is a good chance of cross reactivity. We have an innovator award program that if you test this antibody and show it works in pig you can get your next antibody for free. Please contact me if I can help you with anything.
