Biosensis/Mouse monoclonal antibody to DJ-1 [PARK7]: IgG/M-1573-100/100 µg
Description Protein DJ-1 has many roles including protecting cells against oxidative stress and cell death (Ref: SwissProt). Mutations in the DJ-1 gene have been associated with rare forms of autosomal recessive early-onset Parkinsons disease.
Batch No. See product label
Unit size 100 µg
Antigen Full length recombinant human DJ-1 expressed in and purified from E. coli.
Antibody Type monoclonal
Isotype IgG1/kappa
Clone 4H4
Other Names Oncogene DJ1; Parkinson disease protein 7; PARK7; DJ-1
Accession Q99497 PARK7_HUMAN;
Produced in Mouse
Applications WB, IHC/IF. Suggested dilution of at least 1:1,000 for IHC/IF. Dilutions of 1:10,000 or lower is recommended for WB. This antibody reveals a prominent ~21 kDa band and stains mainly in cytoplasm of tissue culture cells. Biosensis recommends optimal dilutions/concentrations should be determined by the end user.
Specificity The antibody reacts with a 21 kDa band by Western blot on whole HeLa cell lysate. It has also been used successfully for immunocytochemistry.
