| Application: | Anti-LTA antibody produced in rabbit, a Prestige Antibody, is developed and validated by the Human Protein Atlas (HPA) project . Each antibody is tested by immunohistochemistry against hundreds of normal and disease tissues. These images can be viewed on the Human Protein Atlas (HPA) site by clicking on the Image Gallery link. The antibodies are also tested using immunofluorescence and western blotting. To view these protocols and other useful information about Prestige Antibodies and the HPA, visit sigma.com/prestige . |
| Biochem/physiol Actions: | LTA (Lymphotoxin-α) forms a heterotrimer with lymphotoxin-β (LT-β), which anchors it to the cell surface. It binds to either TNF-R55 or TNF-R75 receptors (TNF receptors) and mediates inflammatory, immunostimulatory, and antiviral responses or host defense responses. When complexed with LTβ, it does not bind to the TNF receptors. The LTα/β complex binds to a unique receptor called the LTβ-R. It is also involved in the development or organization of peripheral lymphoid organs. Defects in this gene are associated with susceptibility to leprosy type 4, myocardial infarction, non-Hodgkin′s lymphoma, and psoriatic arthritis. |

| Features and Benefits: | Prestige Antibodies® are highly characterized and extensively validated antibodies with the added benefit of all available characterization data for each target being accessible via the Human Protein Atlas portal linked just below the product name at the top of this page. The uniqueness and low cross-reactivity of the Prestige Antibodies® to other proteins are due to a thorough selection of antigen regions, affinity purification, and stringent selection. Prestige antigen controls are available for every corresponding Prestige Antibody and can be found in the linkage section. Every Prestige Antibody is tested in the following ways: • IHC tissue array of 44 normal human tissues and 20 of the most common cancer type tissues. • Protein array of 364 human recombinant protein fragments. |
| General description: | LTA (Lymphotoxin-alpha) gene encodes a member of the TNF (tumor necrosis factor) superfamily. It is also called as TNFβ and is secreted as a homotrimer by activated lymphocytes. |
| Immunogen: | LTA protein Lymphotoxin α recombinant protein epitope signature tag (PrEST) |
