Background:
LIF Antibody: LIF is a pleiotropic cytokine with roles in several different systems. It is involved in the induction of hematopoietic differentiation in normal and myeloid leukemia cells, induction of neuronal cell differentiation, regulator of mesenchymal to epithelial conversion during kidney development, and may also have a role in immune tolerance at the maternal-fetal interface. LIF was initially recognized by its ability to induce terminal differentiation of myeloid leukemic cells. It is a member of the IL-6 cytokine superfamily and can be highly glycosylated. LIF signaling is transduced through the LIF-R/gp130 receptor complex, leading to the phosphorylation and activation of the JAK/STAT pathway. Recent evidence shows that LIF inhibits cardiomyogenesis in embryonic stem cells via STAT3 activation.

DISCLAIMER:
Optimal dilutions/concentrations should be determined by the end user. The information provided is a guideline for product use. This product is for research use only.
Homology:
Predicted species reactivity based on immunogen sequence: Bovine: (100%)
Immunogen:
Anti-LIF antibody (6245) was raised against a peptide corresponding to 16 amino acids near the center of human LIF.

The immunogen is located within amino acids 50-100 of LIF.
ISOFORMS:
Human LIF has 2 isoforms, including isoform 1 (202aa, 22kD) and isoform 2 (88aa, 9.6kD). Mouse LIF has 1 isoform (203aa, 22.3kD and Rat LIF also has 1 isoform (202aa, 22.1kD). 6245 can detect human isoform1 as well as mouse and rat LIF.
