Description: Anti EGFR(L858R) Mouse Monoclonal Antibody
Background: EGFR is a receptor tyrosine kinase binding ligands of the EGF family and activating several signaling cascades to convert extracellular cues into appropriate cellular responses. It activates at least 4 major downstream signaling cascades including the RAS RAF MEK-ERK, PI3 kinase-AKT, PLCgamma-PKC and STATs modules. Defects in EGFR are associated with lung cancer (LNCR).
Immunogen: A synthetic peptide from the internal region of EGFR which includes the mutation of L858R, human origin.
Species Reactivity: Recognizes EGFR(L858R), but not wild type EGFR from vertebrates.
Storage Conditions: Store at -20°C. Avoid freeze / thaw cycles.

Western blot:
Western blot analysis of recombinant EGFR(L858R) and wildtype proteins. Purified His-tagged EGFR(L858R) protein (amino acid 702-987, lane 2, Cat. # 10230) and corresponding wild type protein (amino acid 702-987, lane 1, Cat. # 10210) were blotted with anti EGFR(L858R) mouse monoclonal antibody (Cat. # 26082) . Proteins loading (bottom) were blotted with anti-His-tag monoclonal antibody (Cat. # 28004).
Immunofluorescence:
Immunofluorescence of cells expressing EGFR proteins with anti EGFR(L858R) antibody. HEK293T cells were transfected with pCDNA3-GFP EGFR(WT) plasmid (left column) or pCDNA3-GFP EGFR(L858R) plasmid (right column), then fixed and stained with anti- EGFR(L858R) monoclonal antibody (Cat. # 26082).
Immunohistochemistry:
Immunohistochemical analysis of paraffin-embedded human NSCLC tissue with anti-EGFR(L858R) monoclonal antibody (Cat. #26082). Tissue samples were fixed with formaldehyde and blocked with 1% serum for 15 min at 37 °C. Antigen retrieval was by heat mediation in citrate buffer (pH6). Samples were then incubated with primary antibody (1:400) overnight at 4°C. A HRP-conjugated Goat anti-mouse IgG (dilution 1:100) was used as secondary antibody.
