Nag-1 Antibody Biotin Conjugated antibody was prepared by repeated immunizations with a synthetic peptide corresponding to a region near the carboxy terminal end of human NAG-1 protein. A residue of cysteine was added to facilitate coupling to KLH. if (typeof window.$mangular === undefined || !window.$mangular) { window.$mangular = {}; } $mangular.antigenJson = \[{targetFamily:GDF15,uniProtId:Q99988-1,ncbiNodeId:9606,antigenRange:308,antigenLength:308,antigenImageFileName:600-406-B07_GDF15_Q99988-1_Rabbit.svg,antigenImageFileNamePDP:600-406-B07_GDF15_Q99988-1_Rabbit_PDP.jpeg,sortOrder:1}\]; $mangular.isB2BCMGT = false; $mangular.isEpitopesModalImageMultiSizeEnabled = true;

This antibody reacts with the C-terminus of endogenous NAG-1 protein from human and mouse tissues. A BLAST analysis suggests reactivity with NAG-1 from chimpanzee and macaque based on a 100% homology. Partial reactivity is expected against rat based on an 86% homology with the immunizing sequence. Cross-reactivity with NAG-1 from other sources has not been determined.

Target Information

GDF-15 belongs to the TGF-beta cytokine family, whose members play an important role during prenatal development and postnatal growth, and the remodeling and maintenance of a variety of tissues and organs. GDF-15 is expressed predominantly in the placenta and, to a much lesser extent, in various other tissues. The presence of GDF-15 in amniotic fluid and its elevated levels in the sera of pregnant women suggest GDF-15`s involvement in gestation and embryonic development. GDF-15 generally exerts tumor suppressive activities and is one of the predominant factors produced and secreted in response to activation of the p53 pathway. Interestingly, the serum level of GDF-15 is positively correlated with neoplastic progression of several tumor types, including certain colorectal, pancreatic, and prostate cancers.
