Immunogen

Anti-HEF1 monoclonal antibody was produced by repeated immunizations with a synthetic peptide corresponding to amino acid residues 82-398 of human HEF1 protein (hHEF1, 843 aa, predicted MW 92.8 kDa). if (typeof window.$mangular === undefined || !window.$mangular) { window.$mangular = {}; } $mangular.antigenJson = \[{targetFamily:HEF1,uniProtId:Q14511-1,ncbiNodeId:9606,antigenRange:82-398,antigenLength:834,antigenImageFileName:200-301-904_HEF1_Q14511-1_House_mouse.svg,antigenImageFileNamePDP:200-301-904_HEF1_Q14511-1_House_mouse_PDP.jpeg,sortOrder:1}\]; $mangular.isB2BCMGT = false; $mangular.isEpitopesModalImageMultiSizeEnabled = true;

Product Specific Information

Store vial at -20° C prior to opening. Aliquot contents and freeze at -20° C or below for extended storage. Avoid cycles of freezing and thawing. Centrifuge product if not completely clear after standing at room temperature. This product is stable for several weeks at 4° C as an undiluted liquid. Dilute only prior to immediate use.

Directed against human HEF1 protein. The product was purified from tissue culture supernatant by chromatography. Reactivity occurs against human, mouse and rat forms of the protein. Reactivity against multiple isoforms is expected. Reactivity against homologues from other sources is not known. Specificity was determined by partial epitope mapping.

Target Information

HEF-1 is a multifunctional protein involved in integrin-based signaling that affects cell motility, growth, apoptosis and oncogenic transformation. The Cas family of docking proteins have been the subject of intense research because of their role in cell motility, growth, apoptosis and oncogenic transformation. These proteins are substrates of focal adhesion kinase (FAK) and the Src family of tyrosine kinases two active targets for drug development. HEF1 protein production increases levels of mRNA transcripts that encode proteins associated with motility, cell transformation and invasiveness, including several metalloproteinases, MLCK, p160ROCK and ErbBi. HEF1 overproduction also mediates apoptosis in epithelial-derived cell lines, including MCF7 and HeLa cells. Recent clinical studies at another institution have found that overexpression of BCAR1 (p130Cas), a related protein, is associated with tamoxifen resistance. This highlights the importance of studying the role of this family of proteins in cancer prognosis.
