AHP1574 specifically recognises an epitope within the C-terminal (CT) region of NUMB (protein numb homolog), a membrane-associated protein selectively partitioned during asymmetric cell division, involved in the fate of cells during development.
NUMB, originally identified inDrosophila, is a major regulator of the intercellular Notch signalling pathway particularly associated with the development/differentiation of cell lineages of the central nervous system. Studies indicate that inhibition of Notch signalling by NUMB allows for neuronal cell differentiation, whereas those cells maintaining Notch signalling initiate apoptosis.

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
AHP1574 detects a band of approximately 80kDa in mouse brain cell lysates.
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
Antiserum to human NUMB (CT) was raised by repeated immunisation of goats with highly purified antigen. Purified IgG was prepared from whole serum by affinity chromatography.
