• Preparation: Produced from sera of rabbits immunized with highly pure Recombinant Human LIGHT
• Anti-Human LIGHT-specific antibody was purified by affinity chromatography employing an immobilized Human LIGHT matrix
• Sandwich ELISA: To detect Human LIGHT by sandwich ELISA (using 100 μL/well antibody solution) a concentration of 0.5-2.0 μg/mL of this antibody is required
• This antigen affinity purified antibody, in conjunction with PeproTech Biotinylated Anti-Human LIGHT (500-P179Bt) as a detection antibody, allows the detection of at least 0.2-0.4 ng/well of Recombinant Human LIGHT
• Western Blot: To detect Human LIGHT by Western Blot analysis this antibody can be used at a concentration of 0.1-0.2 μg/mL
• Used in conjunction with compatible secondary reagents the detection limit for Recombinant Human LIGHT is 1.5-3.0 ng/lane, under either reducing or non-reducing conditions
• Apoptosis, or programmed cell death, occurs during normal cellular differentiation and development of multicellular organisms
• Apoptosis is induced by certain cytokines including TNF (tumor necrosis factor) and Fas ligand of the TNF family through their death domain containing receptors, TNFR1 (tumor necrosis factor receptor 1) and Fas
• Cell death signals are transduced by death domain (DD)-containing adapter molecules and members of the ICE (interleukin-1-beta converting enzyme)/CED-3 (C
• elegans death receptor-3) protease family
• A novel DD-containing molecule was recently cloned from mouse, human and monkey and designated Daxx (death associated protein 6)
• Daxx binds specifically to the Fas death domain and enhances Fas induced apoptosis and activates the Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK) pathway
• Daxx is widely expressed in fetal and adult human and mouse tissues indicating its important function in Fas signaling pathways.
