Gene Information

human ... S100A12(6283)

General description

EN-RAGE is a member of the S100/calgranulin superfamily.

Immunogen

purified, E. coli-derived recombinant human extracellular RAGE-binding protein.

Application

Anti-EN-RAGE antibody produced in goat is suitable for western blot analysis at a working concentration of 0.1–0.2μg/mL, immunohistochemistry at 5-15μg/mL and flow cytometry at 3-10μg/mL/106 cells.

Biochem/physiol Actions

The gene encodes a calcium-, zinc- and copper-binding protein which plays a prominent role in the regulation of inflammatory processes and immune response. It stimulates innate immune cells via binding to receptor for advanced glycation end products (AGER), which activates the MAP-kinase and NF-κ-B signaling pathways leading to production of proinflammatory cytokines and up-regulation of cell adhesion molecules ICAM1 and VCAM1. It also stimulates mast cell degranulation and activation which generates chemokines, histamine and cytokines with leukocyte recruitment to the sites of inflammation.

Physical form

Lyophilized from a 0.2 μm filtered solution in phosphate buffered saline with 5% trehalose.

S100A12 is expressed at sites of acute, chronic, and allergic inflammation. S100 proteins have regions of high sequence homology, but the "hinge" region between the conserved calcium binding domains is structurally and functionally divergent. Because the murine S100A8 hinge domain

The calcium-binding protein S100A12 might provoke inflammation and monocyte recruitment through the receptor for advanced glycation end products. Because inflammation elicited by S100A12 in vivo had characteristics of mast cell (MC) activation, we aimed to define the mechanism. Various MC

Human S100A12 is a member of the S100 family of EF-hand calcium-modulated proteins that are associated with many diseases including cancer, chronic inflammation and neurological disorders. S100A12 is an important factor in host/parasite defenses and in the inflammatory response. Like

The human airways are protected from pathogenic colonization by a blanket of fluid impregnated with innate antimicrobial effector molecules. Among several previously uncharacterized components, we isolated a peptide that had activity primarily targeting Gram-negative bacteria. We named the peptide 'calcitermin'
