Gene Information

human ... PLAT(5327)

General description

The gene PLAT or TPA (Tissue Plasminogen Activator) has been mapped to human chromosome 8p12.

Immunogen

Tissue-type plasminogen activator precursor recombinant protein epitope signature tag (PrEST)

Application

Anti-PLAT antibody produced in rabbit has been used for global protein profiling to find new molecular biomarkers for common, multifactorial disorders. Anti-PLAT antibody produced in rabbit, a Prestige Antibody, is developed and validated by the Human Protein Atlas (HPA) project . Each antibody is tested by immunohistochemistry against hundreds of normal and disease tissues. These images can be viewed on the Human Protein Atlas (HPA) site by clicking on the Image Gallery link. The antibodies are also tested using immunofluorescence and western blotting. To view these protocols and other useful information about Prestige Antibodies and the HPA, visit sigma.com/prestige.
Applications in which this antibody has been used successfully, and the associated peer-reviewed papers, are given below.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Tissue plasminogen activator (tPA or PLAT) is a serine protease found on endothelial cells and is involved in the breakdown of blood clots. It plays an important role in synaptic regulation, plasticity and in neurogenesis. The abnormal function of this gene may be related to pathogenesis of schizophrenia. It is used for the treatment of acute ischemic stroke. An increase in endogenous levels of TPA protein has been observed in preclinical atherosclerosis, which may serve as a marker for risk of future myocardial infarction.

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.
