Physical form
Format: Purified
Purified Immunoglobulin. Liquid in 0.02M PBS, 0.25M NaCl, pH 7.6, containing 0.1% sodium azide as a preservative.
Specificity
Go-alpha. Strong reactivity with bovine (100%), human (70%), rat (61%) and mouse (54%). Slight reactivity with guinea pig (27%). Specificity confirmed by Western blot versus bovine G-alpha-t, rat Go-alpha, rat Gi-alpha-1, Gi-alpha-2, rat Gi-alpha-3, bovine Gs-alpha, and murine Go-alpha-A and Go-alpha-B. The carboxy-terminal splice variants of Go-alpha (Go-alpha-A and Go-alpha-B) expressed in bacterial lysates were compared for reactivity and found to be equal . As Go-alpha-A and Go-alpha-B have >95% homology to rat Go-alpha-1 and human Go-alpha-2, MAB3073 will detect these G-proteins also.
Storage and Stability
Maintain at 2-8°C in undiluted aliquots for upt to 6 months after date of receipt.
During shipment, small volumes of antibody will occasionally become entrapped in the seal of the product vial. For antibodies with volumes of 200 µl or less, we recommend gently tapping the vial on a hard surface or briefly centrifuging the vial in a tabletop centrifuge to dislodge any liquid in the container′s cap.
