Application Notes

The ability of this antibody to bind human IGF1R has been confirmed in IGF1 binding assays using both IG1FR-overexpressing IGF1R/3T3 cells and soluble receptors (Soos et al, 1992). This antibody efficiently precipitates IGF1R solubilized from IGF1R/3T3 cells and receptor-IGF1 complexes (Soos et al, 1992). When immobilised, this antibody has been shown to remove 90% of all soluble IGF1R in immunodepletion experiments (Soos et al, 1992). It has also been used to capture IGF1R N-terminal fragments as part of a ligand plate binding assay (Molina et al, 2000). This antibody strongly stimulates both IGF1 and insulin binding to IGF1R/3T3 cells, and potentiates insulin stimulation of DNA synthesis (Soos et al, 1992).

Short Description

This chimeric rabbit antibody was made using the variable domain sequences of the original Mouse IgG2b format, for improved compatibility with existing reagents, assays and techniques.
