Gene Information

human ... PLXNA1(5361)

General description

PLXNA1 (plexin A1) gene encodes a protein belonging to the plexin A subfamily of proteins. Other members of this subfamily include Plxna2, Plxna3 and Plxna4. It is expressed by mature dendritic cells.

Immunogen

Plexin-A1 precursor recombinant protein epitope signature tag (PrEST)

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

PLXNA1 (plexin A1) gene encodes a plexin that serves as a receptor for semaphorins. Together, plexins and semaphorins regulate signal transduction to control cell shape, cell motility and cell-cell interactions. They also function in the regulation of axon guidance. The plexins are found in the immune system and may play a role in immune cell interaction and the treatment of autoimmune disorders.

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.

Semaphorin and plexin proteins were originally identified for their important axon guidance regulation. In recent years, their role within the immune system has been discovered. Semaphorins are considered the ligands to the plexin receptors, and together, they mediate cell-cell communication.

We determined chromosome locations of four plexin A subfamily genes, Plxna1, Plxna2, Plxna3 and Plxna4, in four rodent species, mouse, rat, Syrian hamster and Chinese hamster, by fluorescence in situ hybridization. Plxna1, Plxna2, Plxna3 and Plxna4 were localized to Chr
