Foundational characteristics of cancer include proliferation, angiogenesis, migration, evasion of apoptosis, and cellular immortality. Find key markers for these cellular processes and antibodies to detect them.
The SUMOplot™ Analysis Program predicts and scores sumoylation sites in your protein. SUMOylation is a post-translational modification involved in various cellular processes, such as nuclear-cytosolic transport, transcriptional regulation, apoptosis, protein stability, response to stress, and progression through the cell cycle.
The Autophagy Receptor Motif Plotter predicts and scores autophagy receptor binding sites in your protein. Identifying proteins connected to this pathway is critical to understanding the role of autophagy in physiological as well as pathological processes such as development, differentiation, neurodegenerative diseases, stress, infection, and cancer.
Anti-IKBα C-terminal (RABBIT) Antibody
IKB alpha Antibody
- SPECIFICATION
- CITATIONS
- PROTOCOLS
- BACKGROUND
| Host | Rabbit |
|---|---|
| Conjugate | Unconjugated |
| Target Species | Human |
| Reactivity | Rat, Human, Mouse |
| Clonality | Polyclonal |
Application 
| WB, IHC, E, I, LCI |
| Application Note | Anti-IkBa Antibody has been tested by western blot and is suitable for ELISA, and IHC. Researchers should determine optimal titers for applications that are not stated below. |
| Physical State | Liquid (sterile filtered) |
| Buffer | 0.02 M Potassium Phosphate, 0.15 M Sodium Chloride, pH 7.2 |
| Immunogen | IKB alpha Antibody was produced by repeated immunizations with a synthetic IkBa peptide corresponding to a region near the C-terminus of the human protein. |
| Preservative | 0.1% (w/v) Sodium Azide |
| Gene ID | 4792 |
|---|---|
| Other Names | 4792 |
| Purity | IKB alpha Antibody was prepared from monospecific antiserum by delipidation and defibrination. Anti- IkBa may react non-specifically with other proteins. Control peptide (code #100-4167P) will compete only with the specific reaction of antiserum with IkBa. |
| Storage Condition | Store vial at -20° C prior to opening. Aliquot contents and freeze at -20° C or below for extended storage. Avoid cycles of freezing and thawing. Centrifuge product if not completely clear after standing at room temperature. This product is stable for several weeks at 4° C as an undiluted liquid. Dilute only prior to immediate use. |
| Precautions Note | This product is for research use only and is not intended for therapeutic or diagnostic applications. |
| Name | NFKBIA |
|---|---|
| Synonyms | IKBA, MAD3, NFKBI |
| Function | Inhibits the activity of dimeric NF-kappa-B/REL complexes by trapping REL (RELA/p65 and NFKB1/p50) dimers in the cytoplasm by masking their nuclear localization signals (PubMed:1493333, PubMed:36651806, PubMed:7479976). On cellular stimulation by immune and pro-inflammatory responses, becomes phosphorylated promoting ubiquitination and degradation, enabling the dimeric RELA to translocate to the nucleus and activate transcription (PubMed:7479976, PubMed:7628694, PubMed:7796813, PubMed:7878466). |
| Cellular Location | Cytoplasm. Nucleus. Note=Shuttles between the nucleus and the cytoplasm by a nuclear localization signal (NLS) and a CRM1-dependent nuclear export. |

Background
Anti-IKB alpha Antibody detects IkBa. I-kappa-B-alpha inhibits the activity of dimeric NF-kappa-B/REL complexes by trapping REL dimers in the cytoplasm through masking of their nuclear localization signals. On cellular stimulation by immune and proinflammatory responses, IKBA becomes phosphorylated promoting ubiquitination and degradation, enabling the dimeric RELA to translocate to the nucleus and activate transcription. Anti-IKBa Antibody is ideal for investigators involved in Cell Signaling, Neuroscience, Signal Transduction and Immunology research.
