RUU-WAC2A reacts anti Human recombinant and endogenous annexin A5. It shows no cross reactivity with Annexins I, II, III, IV, VI, VII and VIII in ELISA or in immunoprecipitation. It does not recognise Monkey and rat Annexin V in ELISA.
For immunohistochemistry of paraffin sections a pretreatment step with 2% amino-propyl-triethoxysilan (in 100% ethanol) and 0,2 % BSA is recommended. The sections are heated for 15 minutes at 100C in a citrate buffer (10 mM trisodium citrate, pH 6,0). RUU-WAC2a inhibits annexin A5 binding to anionic phospholipid-containing vesicles, activated platelets and apoptotic cells for more than 95%.
The antibody may be stored at 4°C. For prolonged storage prepare appropriate aliquots and store at or below -20°C. Prior to use, an aliquot is thawed slowly in the dark at ambient temperature, spun down again and used to prepare working dilutions by adding sterile phosphate buffered saline (PBS, pH 7.2). Repeated thawing and freezing should be avoided. Working dilutions should be stored at 4°C, not refrozen, and preferably used the same day. If a slight precipitation occurs upon storage, this should be removed by centrifugation. It will not affect the performance or the concentration of the product.
The protein encoded by this gene belongs to the annexin family of calcium-dependent phospholipid binding proteins some of which have been implicated in membrane-related events along exocytotic and endocytotic pathways. Annexin 5 is a phospholipase A2 and protein kinase C inhibitory protein with calcium channel activity and a potential role in cellular signal transduction, inflammation, growth and differentiation. Annexin 5 has also been described as placental anticoagulant protein I, vascular anticoagulant-alpha, endonexin II, lipocortin V, placental protein 4 and anchorin CII. The gene spans 29 kb containing 13 exons, and encodes a single transcript of approximately 1.6 kb and a protein product with a molecular weight of about 35 kDa.
