Popis

Application

Anti-Integrin α2β1 Antibody, clone BHA2.1 is an antibody against Integrin α2β1 for use in FC, IH, IH(P) & IP.

Research Category
Cell Structure

Research Sub Category
Integrins

flow cytometry: 10 μg/mL

Immunoprecipitation: Immunoprecipitation of VLA-2 integrins from lysate of 10E6 cell equivalent requires 2-5 μg of BHA2.1

immunohistochemistry in frozen tissue sections: 5 μg/mL

Immunohistochemistry in paraffin sections: 1:50. Block endogenous peroxidase using 0.5% H202 in 80% ethanol, 30 min and unspecific reactions using NGS 1:5 in PBS, 20min RT. Bouin′s fixative solution has been used successfully. Incubation time, conditions: 24 h; 4°C; pretreatment: 0.1% trypsin, 30 min, 37°C. Intracytoplasmic staining near cell membranes.

Does not detect alpha2 integrin subunit by Western blot presumably due to conformational properties of the epitope involved. The epitope for BHA2.1 is dependent on the presence of the (I) domain of alpha2 integrin subunit and does not bind VLA-2 variant which lacks the I-domain.

Function Blocking: BHA2.1 inhibits VLA-2 mediated cell adhesion to collagen and laminin; complete inhibition can generally be achieved at a final concentration of 10 μg/mL.

Final working dilutions must be determined by end user.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Reacts with the collagen receptor VLA-2 (alpha-2beta-1) integrin complex.
