Zebrafish Tie-2 Antibody Summary

Species Reactivity

Zebrafish

Specificity

Detects zebrafish Tie‑2 in direct ELISAs and Western blots. In direct ELISAs, less than 1% cross‑reactivity with recombinant human (rh) Tie-2, recombinant mouse Tie-2, and rhTie-1 is observed.

Source

Polyclonal Goat IgG

Purification

Antigen Affinity-purified

Immunogen

Mouse myeloma cell line NS0-derived recombinant zebrafish Tie-2
Val22-His741
Accession # O73791

Formulation

Lyophilized from a 0.2 μm filtered solution in PBS with Trehalose. *Small pack size (SP) is supplied either lyophilized or as a 0.2 µm filtered solution in PBS.

Applications

Recommended Concentration

Blockade of Receptor-ligand Interaction

In a functional ELISA, 4-10 µg/mL of this antibody will block 50% of the binding of 25 ng/mL of biotinylated Recombinant Human Ang-2 to immobilized Recombinant Zebrafish Tie-2 Fc Chimera (Catalog # 928-T2) coated at 4 µg/mL (100 µL/well). At 50 μg/mL, this antibody will block >90% of the binding.

Please Note: Optimal dilutions should be determined by each laboratory for each application. General Protocols are available in the Technical Information section on our website.

Tie‑2 in Zebrafish Embryo. Tie-2 was detected in immersion fixed whole mount zebrafish embryo (24 hours old) using 10 µg/mL Goat Anti-Zebrafish Tie-2 Antigen Affinity-purified Polyclonal Antibody (Catalog # AF928) overnight at 4 °C. Tissue was stained with the NorthernLights™ 557-conjugated Anti-Goat IgG Secondary Antibody (red; Catalog # NL001) and counterstained with DAPI (blue).

Background: Tie-2

Tie-1/Tie (tyrosine kinase with Ig and EGF homology domains 1) and Tie-2/Tek comprise a receptor tyrosine kinase (RTK) subfamily with unique structural characteristics: two immunoglobulin-like domains flanking three epidermal growth factor (EGF)-like domains and followed by three fibronectin type III-like repeats in the extracellular region and a split tyrosine kinase domain in the cytoplasmic region. These receptors are expressed primarily on endothelial and hematopoietic progenitor cells and play critical roles in angiogenesis, vasculogenesis and hematopoiesis.

Zebrafish Tie-2 cDNA encodes a 1116 amino acid (aa) residue precursor protein shares 38% sequence homology with human Tie-2 in the extracellular domain. Two ligands, angiopoietin-1 (Ang1) and angiopoietin-2 (Ang2), which bind Tie-2 with high-affinity have been identified. Ang2 has been reported to act as an antagonist for Ang1. Mice engineered to overexpress Ang2 or to lack Ang1 or Tie-2 display similar angiogenesis defects.
