GAD67 (GAD1) Chicken Polyclonal Antibody

Specifications

Product Data
Applications	IF, IHC, WB
Recommend Dilution	Western Blot. Immunocytochemistry. Immunohistochemistry. Recommended Dilutions: 1/2000-1/5000 for Western blots. 1/1000-1/2000 for Immunohistochemistry and Immunocytochemistry using 2% paraformaldehyde-fixed tissues or cells. Quality Control: This antibody was analyzed by Immunohistochemistry (at a concentration of 1 µg/ml) using Fluorescein-labeled Goat anti-Chicken IgY (1/500 dilution, Cat.-No AP31795FC-N) as the secondary reagent.
Reactivity	Human, Mouse, Rat
Host	Chicken
Clonality	Polyclonal
Immunogen	Synthetic peptide KLH conjugated corresponding to a region near the C-terminus of this gene product, and was 100% conserved between the Human (Q99259), Mouse (P48318) and Rat (NP_058703) 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.
Specificity	Recognizes Glutamic Acid Decarboxylase (GAD1/GAD67).
Formulation	10mM PBS (0.9%, w/v), pH 7.2 containing 0.02% Sodium Azide as preservative. State: Aff - Purified State: Liquid purified (0.45 µm filter sterilized) IgY fraction.
Concentration	lot specific
Purification	Affinity Chromatography using a peptide column.
Conjugation	Unconjugated
Storage Condition	Store the antibody undiluted in the dark at 2-8°C.

Background	Human Glutamic Acid Decarboxylase (GAD-67), [EC 4.1.1.15] is a 66,987 dalton protein (594 amino acids) selectively expressed in a subpopulation of GABAergic neurons of the CNS. It catalyzes the decarboxylation of glutamic acid, forming the inhibitory neurotransmitter β-amino butyric acid (GABA). It is also know as GAD-1.
Synonyms	Glutamate decarboxylase 1, GAD-67
Reference Data
Protein Families	Druggable Genome
Protein Pathways	Alanine, aspartate and glutamate metabolism, beta-Alanine metabolism, Butanoate metabolism, Metabolic pathways, Taurine and hypotaurine metabolism, Type I diabetes mellitus
