Application Data:
RB1 Antibody (S608)

Western blot analysis of anti-RB Antibody (S608) (Cat.#AP6265e) in Ramos cell line lysates (35ug/lane). RB1(arrow) was detected using the purified Pab.

Background:
The retinoblastoma protein is a tumor suppressor protein that is dysfunctional in many types of cancer.[1] One highly studied function of pRb is to prevent excessive cell growth by inhibiting cell cycle progression until a cell is ready to divide. pRb belongs to the pocket protein family, whose members have a pocket for the functional binding of other proteins.[2][3] Should an oncogenic protein, such as those produced by cells infected by high-risk types of human papillomaviruses, bind and inactivate pRb, this can lead to cancer. Retinoblastoma (RB) is an embryonic malignant neoplasm of retinal origin. It almost always presents in early childhood and is often bilateral.
