Novus Biologicals Announces New NODAL Antibody Made Using SDIX Genomic Antibodiy Technology™
Littleton, CO, September 11, 2011 --(PR.com)-- Novus Biologicals announced today a new NODAL antibody (catalog number NBP1-71686) for the study of cancer, angiogenesis and stem cells. This NODAL antibody was made using SDIX Genomic AntibodiesTM (GATTM).
This NODAL Antibody (NBP1-71686) serves as an excellent tool for studying stem cell signaling and as a marker for cancer research.
NODAL is an important TGF-beta family protein in cellular differentiation. While constitutively expressed in many developing tissues, NODAL is problematically associated with the differentiation and development of many cancers. The expression of NODAL is regulated by a Notch signaling pathway, which when disrupted contributes to the aggressive behavior of metastatic cancer cells, particularly in melanoma. The abundance of NODAL expression in melanoma can help determine the stage of cancer and metastatic type/progression when tested in IHC.
SDIX GAT uses sophisticated bioinformatics and immunization strategies to produce high-quality antibodies that specifically bind to that region of the protein in its naturally folded form. The ability of any antibody to recognize a protein’s naturally folded state has the potential to expand an antibody’s utility to high-value applications like sandwich immunoassay, ChIP, and flow cytometry. Learn more about GAT by reading the GAT FAQ or by downloading the GAT White Paper.
