Anti-Mouse Gas6

Purified Recombinant Mouse Gas6 (>98%)

This antigen affinity purified polyclonal antibody has been 0.2 µm filtered and lyophilized from modified Dulbecco’s phosphate buffered saline (1X PBS) pH 7.2 – 7.3 containing 5.0% w/v trehalose with no calcium, magnesium, or preservatives present.

The lyophilized antigen affinity purified polyclonal antibody can be stored desiccated at -20°C to -70°C for twelve months from date of receipt. The reconstituted antibody can be stored for at least four weeks at 2-8°C. For long-term storage of the reconstituted antibody, aseptically aliquot into working volumes and store at -20°C to -70°C in a manual defrost freezer. Avoid Repeated Freeze Thaw Cycles. No detectable loss of activity was observed after six months.

Immunohistochemistry: Suitable for use at concentration of 1-15 µg/mL.

Goat Anti-Mouse Growth Arrest-Specific Gene 6 (Gas6) recognizes Mouse Gas6. This antigen affinity purified polyclonal antibody was purified using a proprietary chromatographic technique that includes covalently immobilizing the antigen proteins or peptides to agarose based beads. This purification method enhances specificity, reduces nonspecific binding of extraneous IgG and provides you with the most reliable reagent available for your early discovery research.

Growth arrest-specific 6, also known as GAS6 is a growth factor¹ that serves as a ligand for members of the Axl subfamily of receptor protein-tyrosine kinases.² GAS6 is expressed in hematopoietic tissue.³ GAS6 function as a direct regulator of osteoclastic function; they give an insight into the role of these vitamin K-dependent ligands in bone resorption in vivo.² GAS6 has a potential therapeutic target to minimize graft-versus-host disease (GVHD).⁴
