Mouse monoclonal antibody Anti-Human SMAD1

Catalog No. BMR00479 ¡Î913C1b¡Ï Data Sheet  

¢£Background 
The protein encoded by this gene belongs to the SMAD, a family of proteins similar to the gene products of the Drosophila gene 'mothers against decapentaplegic' (Mad) and the C. elegans gene Sma. SMAD proteins are signal transducers and transcriptional modulators that mediate multiple signaling pathways. This protein mediates the signals of the bone morphogenetic proteins (BMPs), which are involved in a range of biological activities including cell growth, apoptosis, morphogenesis, development and immune responses. In response to BMP ligands, this protein can be phosphorylated and activated by the BMP receptor kinase. The phosphorylated form of this protein forms a complex with SMAD4, which is important for its function in the transcription regulation. This protein is a target for SMAD-specific E3 ubiquitin ligases, such as SMURF1 and SMURF2, and undergoes ubiquitination and proteasome-mediated degradation. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding the same protein have been observed. [NCBI Entrez Gene Summary]

¢£Application Data
Detection of SMAD1 by Western blot. Samples: Whole cell lysate from human HEK293 (H, 25 μg) , mouse NIH3T3 (M, 25 μg) and rat F2408 (R, 25 μg) cells. [Lot No. 913C1b-1]

Predicted molecular weight: 52 kDa
  Western blot protocol 
Immunoprecipitation: RIPA lysate of HeLa cells was incubated with anti-SMAD1 mAb. [Lot No. 913C1b-1]

Predicted molecular weight: 52 kDa
  Immunoprecipitation protocol 
HeLa cells were fixed in 2% paraformaldehyde/PBS and then permeabilized in 90% methanol. Cells were stained with anti-SMAD1 mAb (shaded) or isotype control (unshaded) followed by Alexa Fluor(R) 488-conjugated goat anti-mouse IgG. [Lot No. 913C1b-1]
  Flow cytometry protocol 
Immunostaining analysis in HeLa cells. HeLa cells were fixed with 4% paraformaldehyde and permeabilized with 0.1% Triton X-100 in PBS. The cells were immunostained with anti-SMAD1 mAb. [Lot No. 913C1b-1]
  Immunocytochemistry protocol
