Western Blotting (WB), ELISA, Immunohistochemistry (Paraffin-embedded Sections) (IHC (p))
Specificity
DOCK8 antibody is human, mouse and rat reactive. Multiple isoforms of DOCK8 are known to exist.
Purification
DOCK8 antibody is affinity chromatography purified via peptide column.
Immunogen
DOCK8 antibody was raised against a 17 amino acid peptide near the carboxy terminus of human DOCK8. The immunogen is located within the last 50 amino acids of DOCK8.
The Dedicator of cytokinesis protein 8 (DOCK8) is a member of the DOCK180 family of guanine nucleotide exchange factors (1). DOCK8 plays an essential role in humoral immune responses and is important in the proper formation of the B cell immunological synapse (reviewed in 2). Mutations in this gene result in the autosomal recessive form of the hyper-IgE syndrome (3).
