Immunogen

Synthetic human beta-endorphin coupled with poly-lysine or thyroglobulin (Gramsch et al., 1983; Meo et al., 1983) (H-Tyr-Gly-Gly-Phe sequence).

Other Notes

Concentration: Please refer to the Certificate of Analysis for the lot-specific concentration.

Physical form

Purified immunoglobulin. Liquid in 0.02M Phosphate buffer with 0.25M NaCl and 0.1% sodium azide.

Format: Purified

Specificity

The antibody reacts with the amino terminal H-Tyr-Gly-Gly-Phe sequence of human O-endorphin. Therefore, a high cross-reactivity with homologues of identical sequence, such as [Met]-enkephalin and [Leu]-enkephalin and a number of opioid peptides, occurs; the antibody also reacts with swine and camel O-endorphin. However, the antibody does not recognize human beta-lipotropin and N-acetyl-beta-endorphin (Gramsch et al., 1983; Meo et al., 1983; Herz et al., 1982).

Storage and Stability

Maintain at 2-8°C in undiluted aliquots for up to 6 months.
