Immunogen
This Protein A purified antibody was prepared by repeated immunizations with a synthetic peptide corresponding to a region near the amino terminal end of human NAG-1 protein. A residue of cysteine was added to facilitate coupling to KLH.
Specificity
This antibody specifically reacts with the amino terminal end of human NAG-1 protein from human tissues. A BLAST analysis was used to suggest partial reactivity with NAG-1 from chimpanzee and macaque based on a 92% homology. Multimeric forms of NAG-1 may be detected. Cross-reactivity with NAG-1 from other sources has not been determined.
Applications
- Western blot (1:1000)
- ELISA (1:200000)
Usage
This Protein A purified antibody is suitable for ELISA and western blotting of human NAG-1 protein. For detection of NAG-1 in human serum, a sandwich ELISA is suggested using this antibody in combination with anti-NAG-1/GDF15 C-terminal specific antibodies. This antibody is useful in dual antibody immunometric assays (EIA). Specific conditions for reactivity should be optimized by the end user. Expect bands in western blots of approximately 14 kD in size corresponding to NAG-1 monomer using the appropriate cell lysate or extract.
