    Product Information

    Product Description

    This Cell Signaling Technology® antibody is conjugated to mFluor™ UV375 fluorescent dye under optimal conditions and formulated at 200 µg/mL. This antibody conjugate is expected to exhibit the same species cross-reactivity as the unconjugated #3177

    Fluorescent Properties

    • ← Excitation: 351 nm ← Emission: 387 nm

    Product Usage Information

    SignalFlex™ conjugates are produced using highly validated Cell Signaling Technology® primary antibodies and conjugation methods that have been rigorously tested, ensuring high-quality conjugates and lot-to-lot consistency. These conjugates are quality control tested by size exclusion chromatography (SEC) to determine antibody integrity. However, they are not tested on specific assays.

    Optimal dilutions/concentrations should be determined by the end user. When performing flow cytometry, we recommend using an isotype control conjugate at the same concentration as the antibody conjugate.

    Storage

    Supplied in PBS (pH 7.2), less than 0.1% sodium azide, and 2 mg/mL BSA. Store at 4°C. Do not aliquot the antibody. Protect from light. Do not freeze.

    Specificity / Sensitivity

    BiP (C50B12) Rabbit mAb (SignalFlex™ mFluor™ UV375 Conjugate) detects endogenous levels of total BiP protein.

    Species Reactivity:

    Human, Mouse

    Source / Purification

    BiP (C50B12) Rabbit mAb is produced by immunizing rabbits with a synthetic peptide corresponding to residues surrounding Gly584 of human BiP.

    Background

    Secretory and transmembrane proteins are synthesized on polysomes and translocated into the endoplasmic reticulum (ER). Inside the ER, these proteins are often modified by disulfide bond formation, amino-linked glycosylation and folding. To help proteins fold properly, the ER contains a pool of molecular chaperones including BiP. BiP was identified as an immunoglobulin heavy chain binding protein in pre-B cells (1,2). It was also found to be induced at the protein level by glucose starvation (3). When protein folding is disturbed inside ER, BiP synthesis is increased. Subsequently, BiP binds to misfolded proteins to prevent them from forming aggregates and assists in proper refolding (4).
