REDD1 Antibody #2516

Applications Reactivity MW (kDa) Source
W H 28 Rabbit

Applications Key:  W=Western Blotting
Reactivity Key:  H=Human
Species enclosed in parentheses are predicted to react based on 100% sequence homology. Species cross-reactivity is determined by Western blot.

Specificity / Sensitivity

REDD1 Antibody detects transfected levels of REDD1 protein.

Source / Purification

Polyclonal antibodies are produced by immunizing rabbits with a synthetic peptide (KLH-coupled) surrounding Asn60 of human REDD1. Antibodies are purified by peptide affinity chromatography.

Western Blotting

Western Blotting

Western blot analysis of extracts from COS-7 cells, transfected with HA-REDD1 or untransfected (mock), using REDD1 Antibody.

Background

REDD1 (REgulated in Development and DNA damage responses) expression is induced by hypoxia, cell stress, apoptosis and DNA damage. REDD1 is a transcriptional target of p53 and p63 following DNA damage, and links p63 to Ros (1). REDD1 functions as a negative regulator of mTOR in response to hypoxia in a tuberin-dependent manner (2). Depending on cell context, REDD1 can either be protecting or detrimental for cells under oxidative or ischemic stresses (3).
