| Application: | Anti-SerPINB5 polyclonal antibody is used to tag maspin for detection and quantitation by Western blotting and in plasma by immunohistochemical (IHC) techniques. It is used as a probe to determine the roles of maspin in processes such as angiogenesis and tumor suppression. |
| Application: | Applications in which this antibody has been used successfully, and the associated peer-reviewed papers, are given below. Western Blotting (1 paper) ![]() |
| Biochem/physiol Actions: | Anti-SerPINB5 polyclonal antibody reacts with canine, chicken, rat, bovine, human, mouse, and rabbit Maspin/Serpin peptidase inhibitor, clade B (ovalbumin), member 5 proteins. |
| Biochem/physiol Actions: | As a tumor suppressor, it blocks the growth, invasion, and metastatic properties of mammary tumors. As it does not undergo the S (stressed) to R (relaxed) conformational transition characteristic of active serpins, it exhibits no serine protease inhibitory activity. |

| General description: | Maspin/Serpin peptidase inhibitor, clade B (ovalbumin), member 5 (SerPINB5), serpin family, is a serine protease inhibitor originally identified as a tumor suppressor in epithelial cells. Maspin reduces the motility/invasiveness of tumor cells and functions as an angiogenesis inhibitor. |
