		Technical Data
A0855-91C	Activin A Receptor, Type II-like Kinase 2 (Activin A Receptor Type I, ACVR1, ACTRI, ACVRLK2, ALK2, FOP, SKR1, hydroxyalkyl-protein kinase)

Description:
Activin A receptor, type II-like 1 is a type I cell-surface receptor for the TGF-beta superfamily of ligands. ACVRL1 is most highly expressed in human placenta and lung. ACVRL1 deficiency causes hemorrhagic telangiectasia type 2 (HHT2; MIM 600376) also known as Rendu-Osler-Weber syndrome 2 (ORW2). Note: ACVRL1 is also known as ALK1-not to be confused with the similarly named ALK (anaplastic lymphoma kinase).

Applications:
Suitable for use in ELISA and Western Blot. Other applications not tested.

Recommended Dilution:
ELISA: 1:128000
Western Blot: 0.3-1ug/ml
Optimal dilutions to be determined by the researcher.

Storage and Stability:
May be stored at 4°C for short-term only. For long-term storage and to avoid repeated freezing and thawing, aliquot and store at -20°C. Aliquots are stable for at least 12 months at -20°C. For maximum recovery of product, centrifuge the original vial after thawing and prior to removing the cap. Further dilutions can be made in assay buffer.
