Product Overview
This rabbit polyclonal antibody targets SMAD family member 5 (gene SMAD5) in human, monkey, mouse and rat samples and is validated for Western blot. The predicted molecular weight is 52.3 kDa, and the supplier reports an observed band at about 52–60 kDa.
SMAD5 is a receptor-regulated SMAD in the BMP pathway. When phosphorylated by BMP type I receptors it binds SMAD4 and regulates gene transcription in development, cell differentiation and angiogenesis; the unphosphorylated protein has also been linked to regulation of glycolysis in the cytoplasm.

|---|
Samples with a confirmed band (WB): human HeLa cells lysate, human HepG2 cells lysate, human 293T cells lysate, monkey COS-7 cells lysate, human Caco-2 cells lysate, rat liver tissue lysates, mouse liver tissue lysates.
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.
Immunogen
Synthetic peptide from the middle region of human SMAD5. Sequence identity with the mouse and rat orthologs: 95.5%.
Reactivity Notes
The supplier lists reactivity with human, monkey, mouse and rat. UniProt places SMAD family member 5 in the cytoplasm, nucleus and mitochondrion. Tissue expression noted by UniProt (human): Ubiquitous. The samples tested by the supplier (listed above) are a practical starting point for positive controls.
