Immunogen
The antiserum was produced against synthesized peptide derived from human AIG1. AA range:196-245
Specificity
AIG-1 Polyclonal Antibody detects endogenous levels of AIG-1 protein.
Formulation
Liquid in PBS containing 50% glycerol, 0.5% BSA and 0.02% sodium azide.
Dilution rate
Western Blot: 1/500 - 1/2000. ELISA: 1/40000. Not yet tested in other applications.
Purification process (Immunogen)
The antibody was affinity-purified from rabbit antiserum by affinity-chromatography using epitope-specific immunogen.
Background
function:May play a role in androgen-regulated growth of hair follicles.,induction:By dihydrotestosterone (DHT).,similarity:Belongs to the AIG1 family.,tissue specificity:Highly expressed in heart, ovary, testis, liver, and kidney, at lower levels in spleen, prostate, brain, skeletal muscle, pancreas, small intestine and colon, and undetected in peripheral blood leukocytes, thymus, lung and placenta. AIG1 expression is higher in hair follicles from males than from females.,
