ZooMAb^® antibodies represent an entirely new generation of recombinant monoclonal antibodies. Each ZooMAb^® antibody is manufactured using our proprietary recombinant expression system, purified to homogeneity, and precisely dispensed to produce robust and highly reproducible lot-to-lot consistency. Only top-performing clones are released for use by researchers. Each antibody is validated for high specificity and affinity across multiple applications, including its most commonly used application. ZooMAb^® antibodies are reliably available and ready to ship when you need them.

Clone 2D15 is a ZooMAb^® rabbit recombinant monoclonal antibody that specifically detects SMAD7. It targets an epitope within 24 amino acids from the C-terminal region.

KLH-conjugated linear peptide corresponding to 24 amino acids from the C-terminal region of human SMAD7.

Note: Actual optimal working dilutions must be determined by end user as specimens, and experimental conditions may vary with the end user.

Mothers against decapentaplegic homolog 7 (UniProt: O15105; also known as MAD homolog 7, Mothers against DPP homolog 7, Mothers against decapentaplegic homolog 8, MAD homolog 8, Mothers against DPP homolog 8, SMAD family member 7, SMAD 7, Smad7, hSMAD7) is encoded by the SMAD7 (also known as MADH7, MADH8) gene (Gene ID: 4092) in human. At least nine SMAD proteins have been described in vertebrates that are classified as: (a) receptor-activated SMADs (R-SMADs), (b) co-mediator SMADs, and (c) inhibitory SMADs (I-SMADs). SMAD6 and 7 belong to the group of I-SMADs. SMAD7 is ubiquitously expressed protein with higher expression observed in the lung and vascular endothelium. It is a key negative regulator of TGF-β signaling and plays an important role in modulating a large array of biological processes. It antagonizes TGF-β signaling through multiple mechanisms, such as by interfering with the recruitment of R-SMADs upon TGF-β/activin activation, by inducing degradation of TGF-β type I r

Purified recombinant rabbit monoclonal antibody IgG, lyophilized in PBS, 5% Trehalose, normal appearance a coarse or translucent resin. The PBS/trehalose components in the ZooMAb formulation can have the appearance of a semi-solid (bead like gel) after lyophilization. This is a normal phenomenon. Please follow the recommended reconstitution procedure in the data sheet to dissolve the semi-solid, bead-like, gel-appearing material. The resulting antibody solution is completely stable and functional as proven by full functional testing. Contains no biocide or preservatives, such as azide, or any animal by-products. Larger pack sizes provided as multiples of 25 µL.

30 µg/mL after reconstitution at 25 µL per vial. Please refer to guidance on suggested starting dilutions and/or titers per application and sample type.

Recommend storage of lyophilized product at 2-8°C; Before reconstitution, micro-centrifuge vials briefly to spin down material to bottom of the vial; Reconstitute each vial by adding 25 µL of filtered lab grade water or PBS; Reconstituted antibodies can be stored at 2-8°C, or -20°C for long term storage. Avoid repeated freeze-thaws.
