Anti-FAT10; clone 4F1

Application

Immunocytochemistry Analysis: A representative lot detected FAT10 in HA-FAT10 transfected HEK293 cells (Aichem, A., et al. (2010). Nature Commun. 1:13).
Immunoprecipitation Analysis: A representative lot immunoprecipitated FAT10 in transfected HA-FAT10 HEK293 cells cultivated with IFNgamma and TNFalpha (Aichem, A., et al. (2010). Nature Commun. 1:13).

Anti-FAT10 Antibody, clone 4F1 is a highly specific mouse monoclonal antibody, that targets FAT10 & has been tested in western blotting, IP & ICC.

General description

FAT10 protein is a recombinant protein produced in E. coli corresponding to the human sequence encompassing an N-terminal His6-tag within a leader sequence. FAT10, a ubiquitin-like protein, is encoded in the major histocompatibility complex class I locus and is synergistically inducible with interferon-gamma and tumor necrosis factor alpha. FAT10 expression causes apoptosis and it appears that FAT10 may modulate tumorigenesis through its interaction with the MAD2 spindle-assembly checkpoint protein. It has been demonstrated that FAT10 and its conjugates are rapidly degraded by the proteasome. Furthermore, a new interaction partner of FAT10, NEDD8 ultimate buster-1L (NUB1L), may function as a linker that targets FAT10 for degradation by the proteasome.

Immunogen

GST-tagged recombinant protein corresponding to human FAT10.

Concentration: Please refer to the Certificate of Analysis for the lot-specific concentration.

Physical form

Format: Purified

Quality

Evaluated by Western Blotting in HepG2 cell lysate.

Western Blotting Analysis: 0.5 µg/mL of this antibody detected FAT10 in 10 µg of HepG2 cell lysate.

Target description

~18 kDa observed. FAT10 FAT10ylates itself as well as other proteins so additional bands may be observed due to the FAT10ylation of endogenous proteins (Aichem, A., et al. (2010). Nature Commun. 1:13.),(Aichem, A., et al. J Cell Sci. (2012)125:4576-85).
