From
Recombinant Antibody
Specificity
This antribody is specific for the G2 domain of nidogen-1. It binds in such a way that it is able to stop the binding of nidogen to laminin. Nidogen-1 is a sulfated glycoprotein widely distributed in basement membranes and tightly associated with laminin. Also binds to collagen IV and perlecan. It probably has a role in cell-extracellular matrix interactions.
Alternative Names
Nidogen-1; Nid1; Entactin; NID-1
UniProt

Immunogen
This antibody was raised by immunizing a rat with G1/link region of mouse nidogen that is able to block its binding to laminin.
Application Notes
The binding of the mouse version of this antibody to nidogen-1 was proven by ELISA. Further, high binding affinity of the mouse version of this antibody to nidogen-1 was demonstrated using surface plasmon resonance (Ries et al, 2001; pmid:11589703). Frozen sections of fetal, newborn, and 4- week-old mice were stained using the mouse version of this antibody to use for immunohistochemistry. This was performed while researching Collagen XXVIII (Veit et al, 2006; pmid:16330543). Frozen and paraffin- embedded sections of fetal, newborn, 3-week-old, and adult mice were stained using the mouse version of this antibody to use for immunohistochemistry. This assay was preformed while researching a protein called AMACO (Sengle et al, 2003; pmid:14506275). The mouse version of this antibody was used to stain whole mouse embryos or dissected organs from mice for immunohistochemistry. The staining allowed for the immunolocalization of nidogen-1 (Kostka et al, 2001; pmid:11564885).
