Specifications
Host Species:
Rabbit
Species Reactivity:
Mouse, Rat
Homology:
Predicted species reactivity based on immunogen sequence: Human: (63%).
Immunogen:
Anti-TIM-1 antibody (9927) was raised against a peptide corresponding to 16 amino acids near the amino terminus of mouse TIM-1.

The immunogen is located within amino acids 50 - 100 of TIM-1.
Conjugate:
Unconjugated
Tested Applications:
ELISA, WB
Application Note:
TIM-1 antibody can be used for the detection of TIM-1 by Western blot at 1-4 μg/mL.

Antibody validated: Western Blot in mouse and rat samples. All other applications and species not yet tested.
Positive Control 1:
Cat. No. 1405 – Mouse Kidney lysate
Positive Control 2:
Cat. No. 1416 – Mouse Testis lysate
Positive Control 3:
Cat. No. 1464 – Rat Liver lysate
Validation:

Relative Expression Validation (Figure 1): Anti-TIM-1 antibodies (9927) specificity was further verified by TIM-1 relative expression. TIM-1 antibody (9927) detected high expression levels of TIM-1 in the mouse kidney and testis, while showing very low or no expression in the lung, brain and thymus. This pattern aligns with the RNA expression data for these tissues in human, as reported by Human Protein Atlas. (https://www.proteinatlas.org/ENSG00000113249-HAVCR1/tissue).

Isoforms:
Mouse TIM-1 has 3 isoforms, including isoform a precursor (305aa, 33kD), isoform b precursor (282aa, 31kD) and isoform b (282aa, 31kD). Rat TIM-1 has only one isoform identified so far (307aa, 34kD).
Purification:
TIM-1 Antibody is affinity chromatography purified via peptide column.

Background:
TIM-1 Antibody: The human form of TIM-1 was initially discovered as a membrane glycoprotein through which the hepatitis A virus can gain entry into a cell. It was also identified as kidney injury molecule 1 (Kim-1), a predicted adhesion molecule that is upregulated on the surfaces of kidney epithelia. It is also expressed on T helper 2 (Th2) cells of the immune system, and following the binding of its natural ligand TIM-4, stimulates T cell expansion and cytokine production in response to viral challenge. It has been suggested that hyperactivation of TIM-1 leads to an increased level of Th2 responsiveness and asthma susceptibility, and antibodies to TIM-1 may therefore be a novel approach to treating asthma.
