Immunofluorescence
Immunoprecipitation
Neutralization Studies
Paraffin Sections
Application NotesFlow Cytometry (5 µg/ml)
Frozen Sections (2.5 µg/ml)
Immunofluorescence (5 µg/ml)
Immunoprecipitation (1 µg/sample)
Neutralization Studies (see comments and application references)
Paraffin Sections (see application references)
Application CommentsThis antibody binds to A431, HeLa, and other human cells but not to rodent cells. This antibody inhibits EGF binding to its receptor and is an antagonist of in vivo EGF-stimulated tyrosine kinase activity. Also inhibits A431 tumor formation in nude mice. For neutralization studies, use Cat. No. GR01L; Cat. No. GR01 contains azide, which is toxic to cells. Antibody should be titrated for optimal results in individual systems.

Special InstructionsWe recommend resuspending the lyophilized antibody with sterile phosphate buffered saline (PBS), pH 7.4, or sterile 20 mM Tris-saline (20 mM Tris containing 0.15 M NaCl), pH 7.4, to yield a final concentration of 100 µg/ml; product will be more stable if 0.1% sodium azide is included (do not add azide if antibody is to be used with viable cells). Lyophilized antibody should be resuspended at 4°C with occasional gentle mixing for at least 2 h. Following reconstitution, refrigerate (4°C) for short-term storage or aliquot and freeze (-20°C) for long-term storage.

DescriptionPurified mouse monoclonal antibody generated by immunizing Balb/c mice with the specified immunogen and fusing splenocytes with NS-1 mouse myeloma cells (see application references). Recognizes the ~170 kDa EGFR protein.
BackgroundEpidermal growth factor (EGF) initiates its effects on cell growth through interaction with a 170,000 dalton cell surface glycoprotein receptor. Binding of EGF or transforming growth factor a to the receptor activates a tyrosine-specific protein kinase intrinsic to the EGF-receptor protein. The phosphotyrosine content of target cells increases rapidly and the EGF-receptor is phosphorylated on tyrosine residues.
