p63 consists of two major isoforms -TAp63 and ?Np63. These isoforms differ in the structure of the N-terminal domains. The TAp63 isoform (identified by anti-p63 antibody) contains a transactivation- competent TAdomain with homology to p53, which regulates the expression of the growth -inhibitor y genes. In contrast, ?Np63 isoform (identified by anti-p40 antibody) contains an alternative transcriptionally- inactive ?N domain, which antagonizes the activity of TAp63 and p53. The p40 (clone ZR8) recognizes exclusively ?Np63 but not TAp63. p40 is a squamous cell carcinoma specific antibody. It reacts with the vast majority of cases of squamous cell carcinomas of various origins, but not with adenocarcinomas. It is particularly useful in differentiating lung squamous cell carcinoma from lung adenocarcinoma. p40 antibody can also be used as an alternative basal cell/myoepithelial cell marker, which has similar sensitivity and specificity as that of p63 antibody. Therefore, p40 antibody may also be used as an alternative immunohistochemical marker for determining prostate adenocarcinoma vs. benign prostate glands and for determining breast intraductal carcinoma v s. invasive breast ductal carcinoma. Pretreatment: Heat induced epitope retrieval in 10 mM citrate buffer, pH6.0, or in 50 mM Tris buffer pH9.5, for 20 minutes is required for IHC staining on formalin-fixed, paraffin embedded tissue sections. Note: Dilution of the antibody in 10% normal goat serum followed by a goat anti-rabbit secondary antibody-based detection is recommended. Control tissue Lung squamous cell carcinoma. Staning nuclear

BXP-53 reacts with an internal epitope of bcrp, a 70 kD transmembrane half-transporter which is involved in Multidrug resistance. BXP-53 also reacts with the human BCRP molecule.
The antibody neutralizes mouse interleukin 6 (IL-6). It does not cross-react with LPS (the component of the bacterial cell wall which is considered responsible for the toxicity of gram-negative bacteria) and TNFalpha nor does it block human or rat IL-6 in proliferation assays using the KD83 cell line. MP5-32C11 inhibits mouse IL-6-induced proliferation of the NFS60 myelomonocytic cell line and KD83 plasmacytoma. IL-6 is a pluripotent 20-22 kDa cytokine which plays a role in the pathophysiology of severe infection and regulates the immune response, acute phase reaction and haematopoiesis. IL-6 plays a critical role in Bcell differentiation to plasma cells and is a potent growth factor for plasmacytoma and myeloma. Continuous IL-6 gene expression makes an essential contribution to a multistep oncogenesis of plasma cell neoplasia. IL-6 is a very useful culture supplement for the generation of a high number of antibodyproducing hybridomas.
FUNCTION: Ubiquitin-like protein which binds to a wide range of target proteins. Does not seem to be involved in protein degradation and may function as an antagonist of ubiquitin in the degradation process. Plays a role in a number of cellular processes such as nuclear transport, DNA replication and repair, mitosis and signal transduction. Involved in targeting RANGAP1 to the nuclear pore complex protein RANBP2. SUBUNIT: Covalently attached to a number of proteins such as PmL, RANGAP1, HIPK2, SP100, p53, p73alpha, MDM2, JUN and DNMT3B. Also interacts with HIF1A, HIPK2, HIPK3, CHD3, PIAS1, EXOSC9, TDG, RAD51 and RAD52. SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Nucleus; nuclear membrane. Nucleus; nucleoplasm; nuclear speckle. Cytoplasm. SIMILARITY: Belongs to the ubiquitin family. SMT3 subfamily. SIMILARITY: Contains 1 ubiquitin-like domain.

Immunogen:
A synthetic peptide (AKPSTEDLGDKKEGEY) as part of human SUMO-1 peptide (aa: 6-21) conjugated to diphtheria toxoid has been used as the immunogen. This antigen is homologous with SUMO-1 of rat.

Application Details:
IHC, WB. A dilution of 1:1000 to 1:2000 is recommended for immunohistochemistry and 1:2000 to 1:4000 for western blot. Cell lysate from Hela and NIH-3T3 cell lysates may be used as a positive control, and for IHC, lung carcinoma may be used. Biosensis recommends optimal dilutions/concentrations should be determined by the end user.

SUMO-1 binds to a wide range of target proteins as part of a post-translational modification system. Unlike ubiquitin, it does not seem to target protein for degradation, but is involved in a number of cellular processes such as nuclear transport, DNA replication and repair, mitosis, apoptosis, protein stability and signal transduction. SUBUNIT: Covalently attached to a number of proteins such as PmL, RANGAP1, HIPK2, SP100, p53, p73alpha, MDM2, JUN and DNMT3B. Also interacts with HIF1A, HIPK2, HIPK3, CHD3, PIAS1, EXOSC9, TDG, RAD51 and RAD52. SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Nucleus; nuclear membrane. Nucleus; nucleoplasm; nuclear speckle. Cytoplasm. SIMILARITY: Belongs to the ubiquitin family. SMT3 subfamily. SIMILARITY: Contains 1 ubiquitin-like domain. PTM: Cleavage of the last four amino acids of the carboxy-terminus of the precursor form by SENP1 or SENP2 is necessary for function. Several pseudogenes have been reported as well as a number of alternatively spliced isoforms.
