Application Note | Anti-Antiopoietin-1 Antiserum has been tested in ELISA, western blot, immunohistochemistry, and immunofluorescence and is suitable for other antibody based assays. A 1:500 dilution is recommended for western blotting. The reaction of this antiserum directly with cell supernatants may result in high background due to reactivity of components in the serum. This can be alleviated by first immunoprecipitating the antibody:antigen complex and then detecting the antigen. This method results in a very clean and strong signal. Both Ang-1 and Ang-2 proteins have predicted molecular weights of approximately 57 kDa and appear on western blots close to their predicted molecular weights. In some instances additional bands may be seen at approximately 75 kDa which represent highly glycosylated forms of the protein that migrate at a higher apparent molecular weight. |
Physical State | Liquid (sterile filtered) |
Buffer | 0.02 M Potassium Phosphate, 0.15 M Sodium Chloride, pH 7.2 |
Immunogen | This whole rabbit serum was prepared by repeated immunizations with a synthetic peptide corresponding to a N-terminus region near aa 15-45 of mouse angiopoietin 1 protein conjugated to KLH using maleimide. A residue of cysteine was added to the amino terminal end to facilitate coupling. |
Preservative | 0.01% (w/v) Sodium Azide |
Gene ID | 11600 |

Purity | Anti-Angiopoietin 1 is directed against mouse angiopoietin-1 and shows no reactivity with mouse angiopoietin-2. This reagent cross-reacts with human angiopoietin 1. Partially cross reactivity is noted with human angiopoietin 2. This product was prepared from monospecific antiserum by a delipidation and defibrination. |
Storage Condition | Store vial at -20° C prior to opening. Aliquot contents and freeze at -20° C or below for extended storage. Avoid cycles of freezing and thawing. Centrifuge product if not completely clear after standing at room temperature. This product is stable for several weeks at 4° C as an undiluted liquid. Dilute only prior to immediate use. |
Precautions Note | This product is for research use only and is not intended for therapeutic or diagnostic applications. |

Function | Binds and activates TEK/TIE2 receptor by inducing its dimerization and tyrosine phosphorylation. Plays an important role in the regulation of angiogenesis, endothelial cell survival, proliferation, migration, adhesion and cell spreading, reorganization of the actin cytoskeleton, but also maintenance of vascular quiescence. Required for normal angiogenesis and heart development during embryogenesis. After birth, activates or inhibits angiogenesis, depending on the context. Inhibits angiogenesis and promotes vascular stability in quiescent vessels, where endothelial cells have tight contacts. In quiescent vessels, ANGPT1 oligomers recruit TEK to cell- cell contacts, forming complexes with TEK molecules from adjoining cells, and this leads to preferential activation of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase and the AKT1 signaling cascades. In migrating endothelial cells that lack cell-cell adhesions, ANGT1 recruits TEK to contacts with the extracellular matrix, leading to the formation of focal adhesion complexes, activation of PTK2/FAK and of the downstream kinases MAPK1/ERK2 and MAPK3/ERK1, and ultimately to the stimulation of sprouting angiogenesis. Mediates blood vessel maturation/stability. Implicated in endothelial developmental processes later and distinct from that of VEGF. Appears to play a crucial role in mediating reciprocal interactions between the endothelium and surrounding matrix and mesenchyme (By similarity). |

Background
Anti-Antiopoietin-1 Antibody, which recognizes Angiopoietin-1 (Ang-1), has importance in the development of the endothelium by regulating tyrosine phosphorylation of the membrane receptor Tie-2/Tek. Ang-1 binding to Tie-2/Tek causes phosphorylation of the receptor. Ang-2 competes for this binding, and thus blocks receptor phosphorylation. Ang-1 has a potential fibrinogen-like domain at the carboxyl terminus and coiled-coil regions in the amino terminus. Ang-1 is prominently expressed in the myocardium of atrium and ventricle, mesenchymal and smooth muscle cells surrounding most blood vessels, and lung. In the adult, Ang-1 is also expressed in the heart and liver. Anti-Antiopoietin-1 Antiserum antibody is suitable for cardiovascular research.
