LAR Antibody [N165/38 (Formerly sold as S165-38)] is a mouse monoclonal antibody directed against LAR, offered by Assay Genie for research applications. Reported applications include WB and ICC/IF. Reported reactivity: Human, Mouse and Rat. Supplied as IgG2a, purified by Protein G.
LAR (Leukocyte Common Antigen-Related Protein), encoded by PTPRF, is a receptor-type protein tyrosine phosphatase involved in neural development and regeneration. It regulates cell adhesion, cytoskeletal dynamics, and synaptic plasticity by dephosphorylating β-catenin and modulating cadherin-mediated junctions. LAR influences neurite outgrowth, axon guidance, and actin remodeling, making it critical for neurodevelopment and repair. In neurodegenerative contexts, LAR dysregulation may impair synaptic stability and neuronal connectivity. Its role in insulin signaling and inflammation further links it to metabolic and neurodegenerative disorders. As a modulator of synaptic architecture and signaling, LAR represents a potential target for therapeutic strategies aimed at restoring neural function. This antibody is also available conjugated to ATTO 390, ATTO 488, ATTO 594, APC, Biotin, FITC, HRP, PerCP and RPE. Supplied in 100 µg. For research use only; not for diagnostic or therapeutic procedures.
Store at -20°C. Shipped on Blue Ice or 4°C. Conjugated variants should be stored according to the product label.
