Application

All Prestige Antibodies Powered by Atlas Antibodies are developed and validated by the Human Protein Atlas (HPA) project and as a result, are supported by the most extensive characterization in the industry.

The Human Protein Atlas project can be subdivided into three efforts: Human Tissue Atlas, Cancer Atlas, and Human Cell Atlas. The antibodies that have been generated in support of the Tissue and Cancer Atlas projects have been tested by immunohistochemistry against hundreds of normal and disease tissues and through the recent efforts of the Human Cell Atlas project, many have been characterized by immunofluorescence to map the human proteome not only at the tissue level but now at the subcellular level. These images and the collection of this vast data set can be viewed on the Human Protein Atlas (HPA) site by clicking on the Image Gallery link. We also provide Prestige Antibodies® protocols and other useful information.

Biochem/physiol Actions

FLOT2 (flotillin 2) gene encodes a highly conserved, membrane raft associated protein that plays a role in epithelial cell-cell adhesion. Flot2 has been linked to tumorigenesis of several cancers such as breast cancer, melanoma, gastric cancer, and renal cell carcinoma. It may serve as a potential prognostic biomarker and a therapeutic target. Flotillin 1 and 2 are involved in the stabilization of cadherins at cell-cell junctions. It can also directly bind to protease activated receptor 1 (PAR-1), which is involved in the major signal transduction pathways required for cell growth and metastasis.

Features and Benefits

Prestige Antibodies® are highly characterized and extensively validated antibodies with the added benefit of all available characterization data for each target being accessible via the Human Protein Atlas portal linked just below the product name at the top of this page. The uniqueness and low cross-reactivity of the Prestige Antibodies® to other proteins are due to a thorough selection of antigen regions, affinity purification, and stringent selection. Prestige antigen controls are available for every corresponding Prestige Antibody and can be found in the linkage section.

Every Prestige Antibody is tested in the following ways:
  • IHC tissue array of 44 normal human tissues and 20 of the most common cancer type tissues.
  • Protein array of 364 human recombinant protein fragments.

Pemphigus vulgaris is an autoimmune disease that occurs due to pathogenic autoantibodies that recognize the following epidermal adhesion proteins: desmogleins. Systemic corticosteroids usually decrease the titers of anti-desmoglein autoantibodies and improve patients' conditions. Since modifications of IgG N-glycosylation have been
