Background of XAF1
XIAP associated factor-1, also known as XAF1, is a human gene. X-linked inhibitor of apoptosis (XIAP; MIM 300079) is a potent member of the IAP family. All members of this family possess baculoviral IAP (BIR) repeats, cysteine-rich domains of approximately 80 amino acids that bind and inhibit caspases. XAF1 antagonizes the anticaspase activity of XIAP and may be important in mediating apoptosis resistance in cancer cells. And alteration in XAF1 and XIAP RNA expression levels may lead to increased apoptotic resistance and proliferation due to unregulated XIAP function in cancer cells.
Antibody Validation

Question
I was wanting to use your anti-XAF1 antibody for IHC for human thymus on frozen tissues, but I want to know if it has been validated for this particular application. Has this antibody been validated and is this antibody a good choice for human thymus identification?

Asked: 2020-01-16
Answer
It shows on the product datasheet, PA1218 anti-XAF1 antibody has been tested for IHC, WB on human tissues. We have an innovator award program that if you test this antibody and show it works in human thymus in IHC-frozen, you can get your next antibody for free.

Question
We are currently using anti-XAF1 antibody PA1218 for human tissue, and we are content with the WB results. The species of reactivity given in the datasheet says human. Is it true that the antibody can work on primate tissues as well?

Asked: 2019-05-15
Answer
The anti-XAF1 antibody (PA1218) has not been tested for cross reactivity specifically with primate 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 primate you can get your next antibody for free. Please contact me if I can help you with anything.

Question
Can you help my question with product PA1218, anti-XAF1 antibody. I was wondering if it would be possible to conjugate this antibody with biotin. I would need it to be without BSA or sodium azide. I am planning on using a buffer exchange of sodium azide with PBS only. Would there be problems for me to conjugate the antibody and store it in -20 degrees in small aliquots?
E. Wu
Verified customer
Asked: 2014-10-29
Answer
We do not recommend storing this antibody with PBS buffer only in -20 degrees. If you want to store it in -20 degrees it is best to add some cryoprotectant like glycerol. If you want carrier free PA1218 anti-XAF1 antibody, we can provide it to you in a special formula with trehalose and/or glycerol. These molecules will not interfere with conjugation chemistry and provide a good level of protection for the antibody from degradation. Please be sure to specify this in your purchase order.
