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.

This antibody reacts with endogenous Nedd4 protein. A BLAST analysis was used to suggest reactivity with Nedd4 from human, horse and macaque based on a 100% homology with the immunizing sequence. Expect reactivity with Nedd4 from chimpanzee, rabbit, dog, and cattle based on a 94% homology with the immunizing sequence. Cross-reactivity with Nedd4 from other sources has not been determined.

Target Information

The E3 ubiquitin-protein ligase NEDD4 is a Ubl conjugation pathway protein. It contains one HECT (E6AP-type E3 ubiquitin-protein ligase) domain and four WW domains. It is involved in the pathway leading to the degradation of VEGFR-2/KDFR, independently of its ubiquitin-ligase activity. It acts as a potential proto-oncogene that negatively regulates PTEN via ubiquitination, a paradigm analogous to that of Mdm2 and p53. It is also reported to be involved in the budding of many viruses and is the regulator of epithelial Na+ channels, which lead to arterial hypertension. NEDD4 protein is localized to the sarcolemmal region of muscle fibers. Increase in NEDD4 protein expression leads to unloaded and denervated muscles as well as a decrease in Notch1 expression. Hence it acts as down regulator of Notch-1 gene expression.
