KIT Antibodies

Mast/stem cell growth factor receptor Kit (KIT)

Tyrosine-protein kinase that acts as cell-surface receptor for the cytokine KITLG/SCF and plays an essential role in the regulation of cell survival and proliferation, hematopoiesis, stem cell maintenance, gametogenesis, mast cell growth, migration and function, and in melanogenesis. In reaction to KITLG/SCF binding, KIT can activate several signaling pathways.

Phosphorylates PIK3R1, PLCG1, SH2B2/APS and CBL. Activates the AKT1 signaling pathway by phosphorylation of PIK3R1, the regulatory subunit of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase.

Its high specificity and affinity make it to be used for many purposes. Boster Bio rewards its first reviewers with product credits. Scientists across the globe can avail the DAB Chromogenic Substrate Kit from Boster.

Boster Bio Anti-PAX8 (Renal Cell Marker) Monoclonal Antibody

Boster Bio offers an Anti PAX8 Monoclonal Immunoglobulin. It reacts with Rat, Mouse, and Human. This antibody has been tested for the sensitivity of ICC, IF and IHC applications. The antibodies are manufactured in Trehalose and include a blocking peptide, which can be purchased separately. This antibody has a MW of approximately 60 kDa. It can be stored at 4°C for one month.

The company manufactures high-quality monoclonal antibodies for various applications. These antibodies are manufactured in-house using the most frequently used clones. They are also available in several conjugates. Customers can choose the one they want at the checkout.

Polyclonal antibodies are also available from many other companies. Abnova Biotechnology is a USDA and NIH accredited facility that produces monoclonal and polyclonal antibodies. Their specialization is developing custom antibodies, and they also provide peptide conjugation and ELISA services. Noble Life Sciences is a company that specializes in monoclonal antibody manufacturing and production of peptide libraries.

A peptide chain comprising 1160-1493 amino acids serves as an antigen in this antibody. Ki67 is found in the nucleus of human colon SKOV-3 cells and the SV40 transformed African green monkey (Cercopithecus aethiops).

The RAF1 is a serine/threonine-protein kinase that functions as a regulatory link between Ras GTPases. It plays a significant function in cell fate decisions. It activates a series of mitogen-activated proteins kinases activating dual specific MAPK Kinases, as well as extracellular signal-regulated Kinases. It also inhibits the differentiation erythroid cells.

In this study, total RNA was extracted from granulosa cell lines and the ovarian tissues using the RNAprep purified Micro Kit. The RNA was reverse-transcribed with the PrimeScript RT reagent (Takara). Final, the amplification was achieved by real-time PCR using sequence detection systems and a SYBR Ex TaqII premix agent.

Monoclonal antibody, UMAB107, can detect Ki-67 in breast tissue. It can also detect the protein in healthy people's colons. Its unique structure makes it useful in many diagnostic procedures. This invention also explains its use in immunohistochemistry. Monoclonal antibodies exhibit high binding specificityand sensitivity and can be used to diagnose.

After washing the cells, the membranes were are incubated using monoclonal antibodies of mouse and rabbit that specifically target RBP4, the HMGA1, and SF-1.
