Product Name :
PTN polyclonal antibody Background :
Pleiotrophin?(PTN) also known as?heparin-binding brain mitogen?(HBBM) or?heparin-binding growth factor 8?(HBGF-8) or?neurite growth-promoting factor 1?(NEGF1) or?heparin affinity regulatory peptide?(HARP) or?heparin binding growth associated molecule?(HB-GAM) is a?protein?that in humans is encoded by the?PTNgene.?Pleiotrophin is an 18-kDa?growth factor?that has a high affinity for?heparin. It is structurally related to?midkine?and?retinoic acid induced heparin-binding protein. Secreted growth factor that induces neurite outgrowth and which is mitogenic for fibroblasts, epithelial, and endothelial cells. Binds anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK) which induces MAPK pathway activation, an important step in the anti-apoptotic signaling of PTN and regulation of cell proliferation. 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.
