Description

Description: Hypoxia contributes significantly to the pathophysiology of major categories of human disease, including myocardial and cerebral ischemia, cancer, pulmonary hypertension, congenital heart disease and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. HIF-2 alpha is predominantly expressed in highly vascularized tissues of adult humans and endothelial cells of the embryonic and adult mouse, whereas HIF-1alpha functions primarily in extravascular tissues. HIF-2 alpha is also a potent activator of the tie-2 gene, which is known to be selectively expressed in endothelial cells. (1)

Short Description

HIF2 alpha antibody recognizes HIF2 alpha / EPAS1 protein, a transcription factor (predicted molecular weight of 97 kDa) induced by hypoxic conditions. It forms a heterodimer with HIF1 beta / ARNT to drive a specific gene expression profile in various physiological and pathological processes that occur in the context of hypoxia.

Storage Note

Store as concentrated solution. Centrifuge briefly prior to opening vial. For short-term storage (1-2 weeks), store at 4C. For long-term storage, aliquot and store at -20C or below. Avoid multiple freeze-thaw cycles.
