Product Information

Product Usage Information

Application Dilution
Western Blotting 1:1000
Immunoprecipitation 1:50

Storage

Supplied in 10 mM sodium HEPES (pH 7.5), 150 mM NaCl, 100 µg/ml BSA and 50% glycerol. Store at –20°C. Do not aliquot the antibody.

Specificity / Sensitivity

ALDH1A2 Antibody recognizes endogenous levels of total ALDH1A2 protein. Based on sequence comparisons, the antibody is not predicted to cross-react with ALDH1A1.

Species Reactivity:

Human, Mouse

Source / Purification

Polyclonal antibodies are produced by immunizing animals with a synthetic peptide corresponding to residues surrounding Gly350 of human ALDH1A2 protein. Antibodies are purified by protein A and peptide affinity chromatography.

Background

The aldehyde dehydrogenase family is a large group of enzymes that catalyze the oxidization of aldehydes into carboxylic acids (1). Aldehyde Dehydrogenase 1A2 (ALDH1A2, RALHD2) is among a group of aldehyde dehydrogenases that catalyze the metabolism of retinaldehyde into retinoic acid (RA), which plays a critically important signaling role in animal development (2). Research studies have shown that ALDH1A2 also plays a role postnatally in modulating the effects of RA signaling on immune cell function (3-5). In one example using a genetic mouse model, it was shown that ALDH1A2-dependent RA signaling was a downstream mediator of NOTCH-dependent T cell differentiation (6).

Species Reactivity

Species reactivity is determined by testing in at least one approved application (e.g., western blot).

Western Blot Buffer

IMPORTANT: For western blots, incubate membrane with diluted primary antibody in 5% w/v nonfat dry milk, 1X TBS, 0.1% Tween® 20 at 4°C with gentle shaking, overnight.

ALDH1A2 Antibody

Western Blotting Image 1: ALDH1A2 Antibody Expand Image
Western blot analysis of extracts from various cell lines using ALDH1A2 Antibody (upper) and β-Actin (D6A8) Rabbit mAb #8457 (lower). The relative expression of ALDH1A2 among cell lines was confirmed by mass spectrometry.
Immunoprecipitation Image 1: ALDH1A2 Antibody Expand Image
Immunoprecipitation of ALDH1A2 from K-562 cell extracts. Lane 1 is 10% input, lane 2 is Normal Rabbit IgG #2729, and lane 3 is ALDH1A2 Antibody. Western blot analysis was performed using ALDH1A2 Antibody. Mouse Anti-rabbit IgG (Conformation Specific) (L27A9) mAb (HRP Conjugate) #5127 was used as the secondary antibody.
