Validation Data Gallery

• 

  WB analysis using 83455-5-RR

  Various lysates were subjected to SDS PAGE followed by western blot with 83455-5-RR (IFITM2 antibody) at dilution of 1:20000 incubated at room temperature for 1.5 hours.

• 

  FC experiment of MCF-7 using 83455-5-RR

  1x10^6 MCF-7 cells were intracellularly stained with 0.25 ug IFITM2 Recombinant antibody (83455-5-RR, Clone:240318B6) and APC-Conjugated AffiniPure Goat Anti-Rabbit IgG(H+L)(red), or 0.25 ug Isotype Control (blue). Cells were fixed with 4% PFA and permeabilized with Flow Cytometry Perm Buffer (PF00011-C).

•

Background Information

IFITM2, also named as 1-8D, belongs to the CD225 family. It is an IFN-induced antiviral protein that mediates cellular innate immunity to at least three major human pathogens, namely influenza A H1N1 virus, West Nile virus (WNV), and dengue virus, by inhibiting the early steps of replication. IFITM2 induces cell cycle arrest and mediates apoptosis by caspase activation and in a p53-independent manner. It is overexpressed in colon carcinoma. IFITM2 is a novel pro-apoptotic gene that will provide new insights into the regulated cellular pathways to death. IFITM proteins are recently identified as viral restriction factors that inhibit infection mediated by the influenza A virus (IAV) hemagglutinin (HA) protein. Also, they serve as important components of the innate immune system to restrict HIV-1 infection.
