• Target description: Thy-1 membrane glycoprotein (UniProt: P04216; also known as CDw90, Thy-1 antigen, CD90) is encoded by the THY1 gene (Gene ID: 7070) in human. Thy-1 is a highly conserved, GPI-anchored membrane protein with one Ig V-type superfamily domain (aa 20-126). It is synthesized with a signal peptide (aa 1-19) and a propeptide (aa 131-161) that are subsequently cleaved off to generate the mature form (aa 20-130). It lacks an intracellular domain but is located in the outer leaflet of lipid rafts at the cell plasma membrane allowing signaling functions by cis- and trans-interactions with G inhibitory proteins, the Src and c-fyn kinases, and tubulin. Thy-1 is a major cell surface protein found on both T-cells and in the brain. It plays a key role in cell-cell and cell-ligand interactions during synaptogenesis and other events in the brain. It also plays a role in the regulation of axon growth and nerve regeneration, T cell activation and apoptosis, leukocytes and melanoma cell adhesion and migration, and fibroblast proliferation and migration in wound healing. Thy-1 mRNA and protein expression has been reported in several cancer types including liver, myeloid, skin, and brain. It is considered as a marker for glioblastoma stem cells. Reduced expression of Thy-1 is shown to enhance the expression of osteogenic and adipogenic differentiation of mesenchymal stem cells. This ZooMAb® recombinant monoclonal antibody, generated by our propriety technology, offers significantly enhanced specificity, affinity, reproducibility, and stability over conventional monoclonals.

• Physical form: Purified recombinant rabbit monoclonal antibody IgG, lyophilized in PBS, 5% Trehalose, normal appearance a coarse or translucent resin. The PBS/trehalose components in the ZooMAb formulation can have the appearance of a semi-solid (bead like gel) after lyophilization. This is a normal phenomenon. Please follow the recommended reconstitution procedure in the data sheet to dissolve the semi-solid, bead-like, gel-appearing material. The resulting antibody solution is completely stable and functional as proven by full functional testing. Contains no biocide or preservatives, such as azide, or any animal by-products. Larger pack sizes provided as multiples of 25 μL.
• Reconstitution: 300 μg/mL after reconstitution at 25 μL per vial. Please refer to guidance on suggested starting dilutions and/or titers per application and sample type.
• Storage and Stability: Recommend storage of lyophilized product at 2-8°C; Before reconstitution, micro-centrifuge vials briefly to spin down material to bottom of the vial; Reconstitute each vial by adding 25 μL of filtered lab grade water or PBS; Reconstituted antibodies can be stored at 2-8°C, or -20°C for long term storage. Avoid repeated freeze-thaws.
