Target Information
| Target information | S100 Calcium Binding Protein A4 (S100A4), also known as fibroblast-specific protein 1, FSP1, metastasin, or MTS1, is a member of the S100 family of calcium-binding proteins. S100A4 is widely studied for its association with cytoskeletal regulation, cell motility, and other processes linked to cellular remodeling and disease biology. Because it can be detected in different cellular contexts and may participate in protein interaction networks, S100A4 is a relevant target in studies that combine immunoenrichment with downstream protein analysis. This IP-MS validated S100A4 antibody from MtoZ Biolabs is designed for researchers seeking a reliable S100A4 IP antibody for immunoprecipitation-based enrichment and mass spectrometry workflows. As an S100A4 antibody validated by IP-MS, it can support target capture for downstream protein identification, protein complex analysis, and interaction partner studies when appropriate. Researchers looking for an antibody for immunoprecipitation, an IP-MS validated S100A4 antibody, or a S100A4 antibody in IP-MS workflows can use this product to connect selective enrichment with practical downstream mass spectrometry analysis. |

Antibody Validation Levels
To support different research goals, budgets, and evidence requirements, our antibodies are available with multiple validation levels. Each antibody undergoes IP-MS validation before delivery to confirm target-specific recognition and enrichment. For projects requiring additional confirmation, Western blot validation can be added to provide orthogonal evidence of target detection.
| Validation level | Included validation | Best for |
|---|---|---|
| IP-MS Only | Confirms target-specific enrichment by immunoprecipitation followed by mass spectrometry analysis. | IP-based protein enrichment and target specificity assessment. |
| Western Blot Only | Confirms target detection by Western blot under defined experimental conditions. | Routine target detection and expression-level assessment. |
| IP-MS + Western Blot | Combines mass spectrometry-based target enrichment evidence with Western blot-based detection evidence. | Customers requiring more comprehensive validation support. |
