BD, 610016, Purified Mouse Anti-EGF Receptor 13/EGFR

Epidermal Growth Factor (EGF) elicits a variety of cellular responses that are initiated by EGF receptor (EGF-R) binding and activation of intrinsic tyrosine kinase activity. Following ligand binding, EGF receptor is autophosphorylated and, in turn, phosphorylates several other endogenous proteins including phospholipase Cγ. These events initiate a number of intracellular responses that include increased levels of intracellular Ca2+ and transient expression of the nuclear oncogene products c-Myc and c-Fos.

The monoclonal antibody was purified from tissue culture supernatant or ascites by affinity chromatography. Store undiluted at -20°C.
1. Since applications vary, each investigator should titrate the reagent to obtain optimal results.

3. Source of all serum proteins is from USDA inspected abattoirs located in the United States.
4. Caution: Sodium azide yields highly toxic hydrazoic acid under acidic conditions. Dilute azide compounds in running water before discarding to avoid accumulation of potentially explosive deposits in plumbing.
