Product Overview
Clone 25A00 is a rabbit monoclonal antibody that recognizes activin receptor type-2A (gene ACVR2A) in human, mouse and rat samples and is validated for Western blot. The predicted molecular weight is 57.8 kDa, and the supplier reports an observed band at about 85 kDa.
Activin receptor type-2A (ACVR2A) is a type II serine/threonine kinase receptor for activins, myostatin and other TGF-β family ligands. After ligand binding it phosphorylates type I receptors, which then activate SMAD proteins, and it is studied in reproduction, muscle growth and bone.

|---|
Samples with a confirmed band (WB): human HeLa cells, human RT4 cells, human SH-SY5Y cells, human 293T cells, rat brain tissue, rat C6 cells, mouse brain tissue, mouse Neuro-2a cells.
Recommended loading (WB): 20–40 µg of total protein per lane.
Conditions in the example images (WB): 10% SDS-PAGE under reducing conditions, 30 µg lysate per lane, transfer to nitrocellulose membrane, blocking in 5% non-fat milk, primary antibody at 1:500 overnight at 4 °C, HRP-conjugated secondary antibody at 1:5000, ECL detection.
Immunogen
Synthetic peptide based on the sequence of human ACVR2A.
Reactivity Notes
The supplier lists reactivity with human, mouse and rat. UniProt places activin receptor type-2A in the cell membrane. The samples tested by the supplier (listed above) are a practical starting point for positive controls.
