Gene Name: AIP

Specificity: No cross reactivity with other proteins.

Background: AIP, also known as, ARA9 or XAP-2, is a protein that in humans is encoded by the AIP gene. This gene is mapped to 11q13.2. The encoded protein is found in the cytoplasm as part of a multiprotein complex, but upon binding of ligand is transported to the nucleus. AIP may play a positive role in aryl hydrocarbon receptor-mediated signalling possibly by influencing its receptivity for ligand and/or its nuclear targeting. It has been shown that AIP is the cellular negative regulator of the hepatitis B virus (HBV) X protein. AIP mutations may be the cause of a familial form of acromegaly, familial isolated pituitary adenoma (FIPA).

Immunogen: E.coli-derived human ARA9 recombinant protein (Position: D91-H330). Human ARA9 shares 95% amino acid (aa) sequence identity with both mouse and rat ARA9.

Clonality: Monoclonal

Contents: Each vial contains 4mg Trehalose, 0.9mg NaCl, 0.2mg Na2HPO4, 0.05mg NaN3.

Purification: Immunogen affinity purified.

Reconstitution: Add 0.2ml of distilled water will yield a concentration of 500μg/ml.
