WAPL antibody is human, mouse and rat reactive. At least four isoforms of WAPL are known to exist.
Purification
WAPL antibody is affinity chromatography purified via peptide column.
Immunogen
WAPL antibody was raised against an 18 amino acid peptide near the amino terminus of human WAPL. The immunogen is located within amino acids 30 - 80 of WAPL.
WAPL antibody can be used for detection of WAPL by Western blot at 1 - 2 μ,g/mL. Antibody can also be used for Immunohistochemistry at 5 μ,g/mL. For Immunoflorescence start at 20 μ,g/mL.
Antibody validated: Western Blot in mouse samples, Immunohistochemistry in rat samples and Immunofluorescence in rat samples. All other applications and species not yet tested.

WAPL (wings apart-like), also known as WAPAL or FOE, is a 1,190 amino acid protein that contains one WAPL domain and may play an important role in cell growth (1). It is expressed in an isoform dependent manner in heart, skeletal muscle (isoform 2) and uterine cervix tumor tissue (isoform 1) (1,2,4). WAPL is involved in sister-chromatid adhesion and promotes release of cohesin from chromosomes by directly interacting with its regulatory subunits (3,4). WAPL is a new regulator of the development and metastasis of cancerous tissue (4,5).
