Host: Rabbit

Reactivity: Human, Mouse

Homology: Predicted species reactivity based on immunogen sequence: Bovine: (88%)

Immunogen: ZIP1 antibody was raised against a 16 amino acid synthetic peptide near the amino terminus of human ZIP1.
The immunogen is located within amino acids 40 - 90 of ZIP1.

Research Area: Cancer, Cell Cycle

Tested Application: E, WB, IHC-P, IF

Application: ZIP1 antibody can be used for detection of ZIP1 by Western blot at 1 - 2 μg/mL. Antibody can also be used for immunohistochemistry starting at 2.5 μg/mL. For immunofluorescence start at 20 μg/mL.
Antibody validated: Western Blot in mouse samples; Immunohistochemistry in human samples and Immunofluorescence in human samples. All other applications and species not yet tested.

Specificiy: At least two isoforms of ZIP1 are known to exist; this antibody will detect both isoforms. ZIP1 antibody is predicted not to cross-react with other ZIP family proteins.

BACKGROUND: ZIP1 Antibody: ZIP1, also known as ZIRTL (zinc-iron regulated transporter-like) , is the first mammalian member of a family of divalent ion transporters. Zinc is an essential ion for cells and plays significant roles in the growth, development, and differentiation. ZIP1 expression is markedly downregulated in a number of cancerous tissues and is thought to function as a tumor suppressor gene in prostate cancer. More recent studies have shown that overexpression of ZIP1 and concomitant increased levels of intracellular zinc in PC-3 cells cause a significant inhibition of NF-κB, leading to down-regulation of the antiapoptotic protein Bcl-2, Bcl-XL, and the apoptosis inhibitor XIAP, reducing the malignant potential of prostate cancer cells in vitro and in vivo.
