Description
Product Usage Information
Biotinylated antibodies are ideal for immunoassay technologies and high-throughput ELISA platforms that require antibody pairs where both antibodies are from the same host. Platforms utilizing biotinylated antibodies include, but are not limited to, MSD, xMAP, Quanterix Simoa, AlphaLISA, AlphaScreen, HTRF, LANCE, and TR-FRET. Optimal dilutions/working concentrations should be determined by the end user. Please contact us if you require the antibody clone biotinylated at a different concentration, a carrier-free formulation, or a more customized packaging solution.

Source / Purification
Monoclonal antibody is produced by immunizing animals with a synthetic peptide corresponding to residues surrounding Glu328 of human STING protein.
Background
Stimulator of interferon genes (STING, TMEM173, MITA) is a transmembrane adaptor protein that is a critical component of the cellular innate immune response to pathogenic cytoplasmic DNA (1,2). STING is a ubiquitously expressed protein found predominantly in the ER (1). The enzyme cGAMP synthase (cGAS) produces the second messenger cyclic-GMP-AMP (cGAMP) in response to cytoplasmic DNA (3,4). cGAMP binds and activates STING (3,4). In addition, detection of cytoplasmic DNA by nucleic acid sensors, including DDX41 or IFI16, results in STING activation (5,6). Following activation, STING translocates with TBK1 to perinuclear endosomes (7). The TBK1 kinase phosphorylates and activates interferon regulatory factors (IRFs) and NF-κB, which leads to the induction of type I interferon and other immune response genes (1,2,7).
