Gene Information

mouse ... Angpt2(11601)

Specificity

Recognizes mouse Angiopoietin-2 (Ang-2). Mouse/human Ang-2 is a 496 AA secreted angiogenic protein (Suri et al. 1996). There is ~85% homology between mouse and human Ang-2. It is only 60% homologous with Ang-1 (Davis et al. 1996). Ang-2 may act as an antagonist of Ang-1 and Tie-2 (Suri et al. 1996). It is prominently expressed in tissues that are in involved in vascular remodeling (ovary, placenta, and uterus).

The immunogenic peptide sequence is 71% (15/21 aa) homologous with human Ang-2 and has no substantial homology with Ang-1. Antibody crossreactivity in other species is not established. The immunogen peptide is 85% conserved in porcine and 55% in chicken.

Immunogen

20 amino acid peptide sequence near the amino-terminus of mouse Ang-2.
Epitope: N-terminus

Application

Detect Angiopoietin-2 using this Anti-Angiopoietin-2 Antibody, N-terminus validated for use in ELISA & WB.
Research Category
Cell Structure
Research Sub Category
ECM Proteins
Western blot: 1-10 μg/mL using ECL. The predicted size of Ang-2 is ~55 kDa. Like Ang-1, its size may higher due to glycosylation.

ELISA: 1:10,000-1:100,000 using 50-100 ng of control peptide per well.

Optimal working dilutions must be determined by end user.

Physical form

Affinity purified immunoglobulin presented as liquid in PBS containing 0.1% BSA and 0.05% azide, pH 7.5

Storage and Stability

Maintain frozen at -20°C in undiluted aliquots for up to 12 months from date of receipt. May be stored at 2-8°C for short term use. Avoid repeated freeze/thaw cycles.

Other Notes

Concentration: Please refer to the Certificate of Analysis for the lot-specific concentration.

In angiogenesis, circulating mononuclear cells are recruited to vascular lesions; however, the underlying mechanisms are poorly understood. Here, we characterize the functional role of protein tyrosine kinase 7 (PTK7)-expressing CD11b(+) mononuclear cells in vitro and in vivo using a mouse

Angiopoietin-1 (Ang-1) and angiopoietin-2 (Ang-2) have opposing effects on blood vessels, with Ang-2 being mainly induced during the endothelial barrier breakdown. It is known that spinal cord injury (SCI) induces lasting decreases in Ang-1 levels, underlying endothelial barrier disruption, but
