HCA092A recognises the human molecular adaptor protein adhesion- and degranulation-promoting (ADAP). Adaptor proteins are essential components of the T-cell receptor (TCR) signalling cascade, regulating gene transcription and cytoskeletal re-organisation.
ADAP is a 130kD molecule which interacts with several intermediates of the T-cell signalling cascade including SLP-76, FYN and VASP. The ADAP molecule is expressed on haematopoietic tissues and is reported to have multiple functions downstream of the TCR that promote optimal T lymphocyte response to antigen. In particular, ADAP is reported to function as a positive regulator of T-cell activation, LFA-1 integrin clustering following TCR ligation and T-cell adhesion.
Product Form
A bivalent human recombinant Fab selected from the HuCAL® phage display library, expressed inE. coli.The antibody is tagged with a myc-tag (EQKLISEEDL) and a his-tag (HHHHHH) at the C-terminus of the antibody heavy chain. This Fab fragment is dimerized via a helix-turn-helix motif. This antibody is supplied lyophilised.

Where this product has not been tested for use in a particular technique this does not necessarily exclude its use in such procedures. Suggested working dilutions are given as a guide only. It is recommended that the user titrates the product for use in their own system using appropriate negative/positive controls.
Prior to reconstitution store at +4oC.
After reconstitution store at +4oC or at -20oC if preferred.
Storage in frost-free freezers is not recommended. This product should be stored undiluted. Avoid repeated freezing and thawing as this may denature the antibody. Should this product contain a precipitate we recommend microcentrifugation before use.
Shelf Life
12 months from date of reconstitution.
