General description
Chemokine receptor CXCR-4 also refers as fusin or LESTR is a protein that belongs to G-protein coupled receptor 1 family. It is an essential cofactor for T cell-tropic HIV viruses into CD4+ cells. N-Terminal domain and second extracellular loop of the protein act as a HIV binding sites. Anti-CXCR4 (Fusin) (182-196) antibody can be used to block HIV-1 and HIV-2 fusion and infection of human target cells. Rabbit anti-CXCR4 (Fusin) (182-196) antibody reacts specifically with human CXCR4.
Immunogen
synthetic peptide corresponding to amino acids 182-196 of the second extracellular loop of human CXCR4.
Application
Anti-CXCR4 (Fusin) (182-196) antibody may be used in immunoblotting at a working antibody concentration of 0.5 - 1 μg/ml using human HeLa cell extract. It can also be used in immunohistochemistry.
Physical form
Solution in phosphate buffered saline containing 0.02% sodium azide.
Other Notes
The antigen (receptor) is also termed fusin, LESTER and HUMSTR.
