		Technical Data
C2589-97A	CED6 (Engulfment Adapter Protein, Engulfment Adaptor PTB Domain Containing 1, GULP, GULP1, PTB Domain Adaptor Protein CED6)

Description:
The prompt clearance of cells undergoing apoptosis is critical during embryonic development, normal tissue turnover, as well as inflammation and autoimmunity. CED6 and its human homologue gulp, encode an adapter protein, whose function in engulfment. The upstream and downstream components of CED6 mediated signaling are not known. Recently, CED1 has been shown to encode a transmembrane protein on phagocytic cells, with two functional sequence motifs in its cytoplasmic tail that are important for engulfment.

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

Recommended Dilution:
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 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.
