Product Name :
NF2/Merlin (phospho-S518) polyclonal antibody Background :
Neurofibromin 2 (NF2) is a tumor suppressor gene encoding the protein Merlin. Merlin is closely related to the ERM (ezrin, radixin, moesin) family of proteins. The precise funtion of Merlin is not clear. It is thought to provide a link between the actin cytoskeleten and membrane associated proteins, playing a role in transduction of extracellular signals. It has been implicated in cell proliferation and cellular motility. Mutations in the NF2 gene cause neurofibromatosis type II, a condition characterised by the development of tumors in the central nervous system. Product :

Describe :

Blocking peptides are peptides that bind specifically to the target antibody and block antibody binding. These peptide usually contains the epitope recognized by the antibody. Antibodies bound to the blocking peptide no longer bind to the epitope on the target protein. This mechanism is useful when non-specific binding is an issue, for example, in Western blotting (WB) and Immunohistochemistry (IHC). By comparing the staining from the blocked antibody versus the antibody alone, one can see which staining is specific; Specific binding will be absent from the western blot or IHC performed with the neutralized antibody.

Formula:

Synthetic peptide was lyophilized with 100% acetonitrile and is supplied as a powder. Reconstitute with 0.1 ml DI water for a final concentration of 10 mg/ml.The purity is >90%,tested by HPLC and MS.

---

Storage:

The freeze-dried powder is more stable. For short time at 2-8°C. For long term storage store at -20°C.
