Description

Background
Anthrax PA (Protective Antigen) and Anthrax LF (Lethal Factor), along with Anthrax EF (Edema Factor), are toxins produced by Bacillus anthracis. All three of the proteins must be present for toxicity to occur. It begins with the binding of PA to its cell-surface receptor, ATR (Anthrax Toxin Receptor), at which point PA is cleaved and the resulting 63 kD carboxyl-terminal fragment binds to LF and EF. LF is a protease that is known to cleave members of the mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase (MAPKK) family(2).

PA005173-ANT-182: Anthrax PA Polyclonal Antibody

Rabbit Polyclonal Antibody.
Applications: This polyclonal antibody can be used for detection of Anthrax PA protein in western blot, 1:1000.
Immunogen: Anthrax PA Antibody was developed by immunizing rabbits with synthetic peptides corresponding to amino acids 240-254 of the Anthrax PA protein (~83 kD). Anthrax PA Antibody is cleaved from the 83 kDa form to the 63 kDa form at amino acids 164-167. Thus the Anthrax PA antibody (made against amino acids 250-250) should recognize both the 83 kDa and 63 kDa PA forms, but not the 20 kDa cleavage fragment.
Form of Antibody: 200ul PBS containing 0.2% gelatin and 0.05% sodium azide.
Isotype: Rabbit Ig.

Storage/Stability: Stable for 1 year at -20°C and 3 months at 4°C. For maximum recovery of the product, centrifuge the original vial after thawing and before removing the cap. Aliquot to avoid repeated freezing and thawing.
