AHP1012 recognises inositol-requiring kinase 1 precursor (IRE1p), a 108kDa serine-threonine kinase/endoribonuclease also known as ERN1. It is an endoplasmic reticulum (ER) transmembrane protein, normally bound to the ER molecular chaperones GRP78 and GRP94. At times of ER stress, due to accumulation of unfolded proteins, IRE1p becomes dissociated from the chaperones, which allows it to activate the un-folded protein transcriptional response (UPR). In the mammalian genome, there are two homologs Ire1alpha and Ire1beta. Ire1alpha is expressed in all cells and tissues, Ire1beta expression is primarily restricted to intestinal epithelial cells.

Where this product has not been tested for use in a particular technique this does not necessarily exclude its use in such procedures. Suggested working dilutions are given as a guide only. It is recommended that the user titrates the product for use in their own system using appropriate negative/positive controls.
Western Blotting
AHP1012 detects a band of approximately 110kDa in A-20 cell lysate.
Storage
Store at +4oC or at -20oC if preferred.
Storage in frost-free freezers is not recommended.
This product should be stored undiluted. Avoid repeated freezing and thawing as this may denature the antibody. Should this product contain a precipitate we recommend microcentrifugation before use.
Shelf Life
18 months from date of despatch.
Antiserum Preparation
Antisera to IRE1p were raised by repeated immunisations of rabbits with highly purified antigen. Purified IgG prepared by affinity chromatography.
