An antipeptide antibody was generated in chickens against a sequence shared between the mouse (P60202) and human (NP_000524) gene products. Antibodies were affinity-purified and the concentration adjusted to 100 µg/mL. These antibodies have been validated with human, mouse and rat tissues.

Volume: 1000 µL

Concentration: 100 µg/mL

Clonality: Polyclonal

Host Species: Chicken

Species Reactivity:Human, Mouse, Rat

Applications: ICC, IHC

Protein Name / Synonyms: Myelin proteolipid protein (PLP) (Lipophilin)

Target Description: Human Proteolipid Protein (PLP, or lipophilin) is a 29,946 dalton protein (277 amino acids) found in myelin of the CNS and PNS. Expressed by oligodendrocytes and Schwann cells, PLP stabilizes myelin by preventing lipid bilayer fusion, and aids in its compaction. Different mutations of the human PLP gene product result in two neurological disorders: Pelizaeus-Merzbacher Disease and Spastic Paraplegia Type 2.

Gene ID: PLP1 PLP

Antibody Registry ID (RRID): AB_2313560

Physical State: Liquid

Production Notes: Chickens were immunized with a synthetic peptide / keyhole limpet hemocyanin (KLH) conjugate. The sequence of the synthetic peptide was shared between the human and mouse gene products. After repeated injections into the hens, immune eggs were collected, and the IgY fractions were purified from the yolks. These IgY fractions were then affinity-purified using a peptide column, the concentration of the eluate adjusted to 100 µg/mL, and the preparation was filter sterilized.

Validation and Application Notes

Molecular Weight: 30 kDa

Western Blot Dilution Range: 1:2000-1:5000

IHC Dilution Range: 1:2000-1:5000

Quality Control

Each of the three antibodies were analyzed by immunohistochemistry (at a dilution of 1:2000) using fluorescein-labeled goat anti-chicken IgY (1:500 dilution, Aves Labs Cat.# F-1005) as the secondary reagent.

Storage

Store at 4°C in the dark. Under these conditions, the antibodies should have a shelf life of at least 12 months (provided they remain sterile). Do not freeze these antibodies unless you want to store them for longer periods of time. Note, however, that each time an antibody preparation is frozen, about half of its binding activity is lost.

NOTE

Aves Labs products are intended for use as research laboratory reagents. They are not intended for use as diagnostic or therapeutic reagents in humans.

鸡的概念 在一次会议上，他与同事的一次谈话说服了西蒙博士再次尝试制造这种抗体，但是尝试把鸡作为宿主——鸡在进化上与包括人类在内的哺乳动物完全不同。结果表明:人蛋白抗原具有高度的免疫原性，抗体产量异常高，免疫试剂结合紧密，特异性高。 今天的Aves 从那时起，Aves Labs开创了在蛋白质中寻找高免疫原性肽序列的新算法，开发了针对鸡抗体的新的亲和纯化方法，并开发了许多其他有用的试剂，如BlokHen®阻断试剂和PrecipHen®免疫沉淀试剂。Aves实验室继续开发针对神经特异性抗原和表位标签的新型抗体试剂，以促进神经科学和分子生物学领域的科学进步。
