mouse monoclonal IgG2b; ARF6 Antibody (3A-1) is an IgG2b κ mouse monoclonal ARF6 antibody that detects the ARF6 protein of mouse, rat and human origin by WB, IP, IF, IHC(P) and ELISA. ARF6 Antibody (3A-1) is available as both the non-conjugated anti-ARF6 antibody form, as well as multiple conjugated forms of anti-ARF6 antibody, including agarose, HRP, PE, FITC and multiple Alexa Fluor® conjugates. The ADP-ribosylation factor (ARF) protein family are structurally and functionally conserved members of the Ras superfamily of regulatory GTP-binding proteins. ARFs influence vesicle trafficking and signal transduction in eukaryotic cells. ARF-dependent regulatory mechanisms include the coordination of spectrin interactions with golgi membranes and the association of Actin to the Golgi via rho family-dependent G-protein localization (Rac, CDC42) and WASP/Arp2/3 complexes. Additionally, ARFs play a central role in maintenance of organelle integrity, assembly of coat proteins and activation of phospholipase D. The ARF proteins are categorized as class I (ARF1, ARF2 and ARF3), class II (ARF4 and ARF5) and class III (ARF6); members of each class share a common gene organization. The human ARF6 gene contains five exons and four introns, and encodes a 175 amino acid protein.
