Anaplastic Lymphoma Kinase (ALK) is a receptor tyrosine kinase which plays a role in brain and nervous system development. ALK is typically expressed at low levels in regions of the developing central and peripheral nervous system, such as the neonatal brain and spinal cord. The most common genetic alterations of this gene are chromosomal translocations, which result in multiple ALK fusion proteins that are involved in tumourigenesis, as in the case of anaplastic large cell lymphoma (ALCL), lung adenocarcinoma, and inflammatory myofibroblastic tumours. Aberrant ALK expression is also found in other tumours such as familial neuroblastoma, non-small cell lung carcinoma (NSCLC), and brain cancers.

Alpha-Fetoprotein (AFP) is a major plasma glycoprotein seen in hepatocytes of fetal liver and in hepatoma. Elevated levels of AFP in adult serum may be indicative of hepatocellular carcinoma, hepatoid adenocarcinoma, germ cell tumours, or yolk sac tumours. In hepatocellular carcinoma, AFP expression usually indicates malignancy in a hepatocellular nodule and hepatic histogenesis of a malignancy.

Alpha Fetoprotein (AFP) is a protein that is encoded by the gene AFP in humans. It is a plasma protein that is produced during fetal development by the yolk sac and the liver. AFP binds to copper, nickel, fatty acids and bilirubin and exists in monomeric, dimeric and trimeric forms. In the human fetus, AFP is the most abundant plasma protein, it binds estradiol to prevent the transport of this hormone across the placenta to the fetus. The major function of AFP is to prevent the virilization of female fetuses.

Neurofilaments can be defined as the intermediate or 10nm diameter filaments found in neuronal cells. They are composed a mixture of subunits which often includes the neurofilament triplet proteins, NF-L, NF-M and NF-H. Neurofilaments may also include peripherin, alpha-internexin, nestin and in some cases vimentin. Alpha-internexin is a ~66 kDa Class IV intermediate filament subunit expressed in large amounts early in neuronal development, but is downregulated in many neurons as development procedes. Many classes of mature neurons contain alpha-internexin in addition to NF-L, NF-M and NF-H. In some mature neurons alpha-internexin is the only neurofilament subunit expressed. Antibodies to alpha-internexin are therefore unique probes to study and classify neuronal types and follow their processes in sections and in tissue culture. In addition the very early developmental expression of alpha-internexin means its presence is an early and convenient diagnostic feature of neuronal progenitors cells and other cell committed to the neuronal lineage.

Alpha synuclein control peptide (116-131), Purified Peptide, suitable to Block.
Background Info:
<span itemprop="description">Alpha synuclein is an abundant 140 amino acid neuronal protein, expressed primarily at presynaptic terminals in the central nervous system. Alpha synuclein has been associated with several neurodegenerative diseases. A point mutation in the gene coding for the alpha-synuclein protein was the first discovery linking this protein to a rare familial form of Parkinson's disease (PD). Subsequently, other mutations in the alpha-synuclein gene have been identified in familial PD.

Specificity:
Immunohistochemistry shows a high specificity for alpha-synuclein. This antibody is known to react with human, rat and mouse alpha-synuclein.
Storage:
After reconstitution keep aliquots at -20°C for a higher stability, and at 2-8°C with an appropriate antibacterial agent. Glycerol (1:1) may be added for an additional stability. Avoid repetitive freeze/thaw cycles.
Sheep anti-Alpha-synuclein Polyclonal Antibody (Unconjugated), suitable for IHC-Frozen, IHC-Paraffin-embedded.
Background Info:
Alpha synuclein is an abundant 140 amino acid neuronal protein, expressed primarily at presynaptic terminals in the central nervous system. Alpha synuclein has been associated with several neurodegenerative diseases. A point mutation in the gene coding for the alpha-synuclein protein was the first discovery linking this protein to a rare familial form of Parkinson's disease (PD). Subsequently, other mutations in the alpha-synuclein gene have been identified in familial PD. The aggregated proteinaceous inclusions called Lewy bodies found in PD and cortical Lewy body dementia (LBD) were discovered to be predominantly alpha-synuclein. Aberrant aggregation of alpha-synuclein has been detected in an increasing number of neurodegenerative diseases, collectively known as synucleopathies. Alpha-synuclein exists physiologically in both soluble and membrane-bound states, in unstructured and alpha-helical conformations, respectively. The physiological function of alpha-synuclein appears to require its translocation between these subcellular compartments and interconversion between the 2 conformations. Abnormal processing of alpha-synuclein is predicted to lead to pathological changes in its binding properties and function.
