Product Overview
This rabbit polyclonal antibody detects slit homolog 2 protein (gene SLIT2) in human samples and is validated for Western blot, flow cytometry and ELISA. The predicted molecular weight is 169.9 kDa, and the supplier reports an observed band at about 170 kDa.
Slit2 is a secreted guidance protein that signals through Roundabout (Robo) receptors. During nervous system development it acts mainly as a repellent that keeps axons from crossing the midline inappropriately and steers neuron migration; it also affects cell migration and angiogenesis outside the brain, so it is studied in neurodevelopment and cancer.

Samples with a confirmed band (WB): human 293T cells, human Raji cells, human PC-3 cells, human A251 cells.
Recommended loading (WB): 20–40 µg of total protein per lane.
Conditions in the example images (WB): 5–20% gradient SDS-PAGE under reducing conditions, 30 µg lysate per lane, transfer to nitrocellulose membrane, blocking in 5% non-fat milk, primary antibody at 0.5 µg/mL overnight at 4 °C, HRP-conjugated secondary antibody at 1:5000, ECL detection.
Samples with a confirmed signal (flow cytometry): Daudi cells.
Immunogen
Recombinant human SLIT2 fragment (Asn934–Ser1529), expressed in E. coli.
Reactivity Notes
The supplier lists reactivity with human. UniProt describes slit homolog 2 protein as a secreted protein. Tissue expression noted by UniProt (human): Fetal lung and kidney, and adult spinal cord. The samples tested by the supplier (listed above) are a practical starting point for positive controls.
