Target description

Vascular endothelial growth factor A (UniProt: P15692; also known as VEGF-A, Vascular permeability factor, VPF) is encoded by the VEGFA (also known as VEGF) gene (Gene ID: 7422) in human. VEGF is a disulfide-linked homodimeric protein that acts as one of the most potent angiogenic factor to regulate vascular proliferation and permeability. It also acts as an anti-apoptotic factor for newly formed blood vessels. VEGF-A is a prototypical member of a family of related growth factors that includes placental growth factor (PLGF), VEGF-B, VEGF-C, and VEGF-D. It is synthesized with a signal peptide (aa 1-26), which is subsequently cleaved off to generate the mature form. Alternative splicing of a single VEGF gene generates multiple isoforms, including VEGF 121, 145, 165, 189, and 206, which differ in their molecular weights and in their ability to bind to cell-surface heparan sulfate proteoglycans. VEGF121 and VEGF165 are reported to be the most dominant forms expressed in all tumor cell lines investigated. VEGF121 is acidic and is freely secreted. However, VEGF165 is more basic, has heparin-binding properties and, although a significant proportion remains cell-associated, most is freely secreted. The biological effects of VEGF are mediated through two VEGF receptors, VEGFR-1 (Flt-1) and VEGFR-2 (KDR/Flk-1), whose expression is largely, limited to the vascular endothelium. Although VEGF is essential for physiologic vascular homeostasis, it is also involved in the pathogenesis of tumor growth and metastasis, age-related macular degeneration, and diabetic and hypertensive retinopathy. VEGF expression is enhanced in response to hypoxia, oncogenes, and other cytokines, and is associated with poor prognosis in several types of cancer. This ZooMAbZooMAb^® recombinant monoclonal antibody, generated by our propriety technology, offers significantly enhanced specificity, affinity, reproducibility, and stability over conventional monoclonals.

Physical form

Purified recombinant rabbit monoclonal antibody IgG, lyophilized in PBS with 5% Trehalose, normal appearance a coarse or translucent resin. The PBS/trehalose components in the ZooMAb formulation can have the appearance of a semi-solid (bead like gel) after lyophilization. This is a normal phenomenon. Please follow the recommended reconstitution procedure in the data sheet to dissolve the semi-solid, bead-like, gel-appearing material. The resulting antibody solution is completely stable and functional as proven by full functional testing. Contains no biocide or preservatives, such as azide, or any animal by-products. Larger pack sizes provided as multiples of 25 μL.

Reconstitution

300 μg/mL after reconstitution at 25 μL per vial. Please refer to guidance on suggested starting dilutions and/or titers per application and sample type.

Storage and Stability

Recommend storage of lyophilized product at 2-8°C; Before reconstitution, micro-centrifuge vials briefly to spin down material to bottom of the vial; Reconstitute each vial by adding 25 μL of filtered lab grade water or PBS; Reconstituted antibodies can be stored at 2-8°C, or -20°C for long term storage. Avoid repeated freeze-thaws.
