Species cross-reactivity is determined by western blot. Species enclosed in parentheses are predicted to react based on 100% sequence homology.
Protocols
Specificity / Sensitivity
Axl (C89E7) Rabbit mAb detects endogenous levels of total Axl protein. The antibody does not cross-react with related proteins.
Source / Purification
Monoclonal antibody is produced by immunizing animals with a recombinant human fragment of the Axl protein.
Western Blotting
Western blot analysis of extracts from various cell lines using Axl (C89E7) Rabbit mAb (upper) and β-Actin (D6A8) Rabbit mAb #8457 (lower).
IHC-P (paraffin)
Immunohistochemical analysis of paraffin-embedded breast carcinoma using Axl (C89E7) Rabbit mAb. Note staining of infiltrating cells.
IHC-P (paraffin)
Immunohistochemical analysis of paraffin-embedded metastatic lung carcinoma using Axl (C89E7) Rabbit mAb.
IHC-P (paraffin)
Immunohistochemical analysis of paraffin-embedded cell pellets, NCI-H1299 (left) or Jurkat (right), using Axl (C89E7) Rabbit mAb.
Flow Cytometry
Flow cytometric analysis of Jurkat cells (blue) and DU145 cells (green) using Axl (C89E7H4) Rabbit mAb.
IF-IC
Confocal immunofluorescent analysis of DU 145 (left) and HCC827 (right) cells using Axl (C89E7) Rabbit mAb (green). Blue pseudocolor = DRAQ5® #4084 (fluorescent DNA dye).
Background
Axl, Sky, and Mer are three members of a receptor tyrosine kinase (RTK) family that share a conserved intracellular tyrosine kinase domain and an extracellular domain similar to those seen in cell adhesion molecules. These RTKs bind the vitamin K-dependent protein growth-arrest-specific 6 (Gas6), which is structurally related to the protein S anticoagulation factor (1). Upon binding to its receptor, Gas6 activates phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K) and its downstream targets Akt and S6K, as well as NF-κB (2,3). A large body of evidence supports a role for Gas6/Axl signaling in cell growth and survival in normal and cancer cells (4).
