MyBioSource.com's TACE Antibody is a Rabbit Polyclonal antibody. This antibody has been shown to work in applications such as: ELISA, Flow Cytometry, Immunocytochemistry, Immunofluorescence, and Western Blot. The TACE Antibody was generated using ADAM17, CD156b, NISBD, and TACE as the antigen and it reacts with Human, Mouse, and Rat.
Description
TACE Antibody: Tumor-necrosis factor-alpha is a proinflammatory cytokine and contributes to a variety of inflammatory disease responses and programmed cell death. TNF-α is synthesized as a 26K type II membrane-bound precursor that is cleaved by a convertase to generate secreted 17K mature TNF-α. TNF-α converting enzyme (TACE) protein was recently purified and the human and mouse TACE cDNAs were cloned by several groups separately. TACE is a membrane-bound metalloprotease-disintegrin in the family of mammalian ADAM (for a disintegrin and metalloprotease). TACE also processes other cell surface proteins, including TNF receptor, TGFalpha, the L-selectin adhesion molecule, and alpha-cleavage of amyloid protein precursor (APP). TACE mRNA is expressed in a variety of human and murine tissues. TACE was selected as one of the few targets in cytokine activation by the Eighth International Conference of the Inflammation Research Association
