Anti-MERTK Antibody [Assigned #A11341]

This rabbit monoclonal antibody from Antibodies.com targets the MERTK receptor tyrosine kinase, a member of the TAM receptor family (TYRO3, AXL, MERTK) that governs phagocytic clearance of apoptotic cells and modulates innate immune signaling in professional phagocytes. The unconjugated IgG reagent is supplied as 50 µL of ready-to-use stock and is validated for western blot, immunohistochemistry, and immunoprecipitation workflows on human samples.

MERTK expression is concentrated in macrophages, dendritic cells, and select epithelial populations, making this reagent useful for efferocytosis research, tumor immunology studies, and investigations into autoimmune regulation where dysregulated apoptotic cell removal is implicated. The antibody is stored at -20 °C; protect from light, avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles, and aliquot upon arrival to preserve long-term stability. For research use only, this reagent supports studies into cancer cell phagocytosis, immune checkpoint biology, and the broader TAM signaling axis.
