Anti-alpha Fetoprotein Antibody
详情介绍:
Overview
Name: | Anti-alpha Fetoprotein Antibody See all alpha Fetoprotein primary antibodies
|
Description: | Mouse monoclonal (AFP-01) antibody to alpha Fetoprotein. |
Specificity: | The antibody AFP-01 reacts with human alpha-Fetoprotein (AFP), a 70 kDa oncofetal antigen. AFP is a major fetal plasma protein, but is not present in healthy ***** tissues. Elevated AFP concentrations in ***** plasma may be an early marker of hepatocellular carcinoma or teratoblastoma, while high concentrations in amniotic fluid may indicate severe congenital defects of a fetus. |
Applications: | IP, ELISA, WB |
Reactivity: | Human |
Immunogen: | Purified alpha Fetoprotein. |
Host: | Mouse |
Clonality: | Monoclonal |
Clone: | AFP-01 |
Isotype: | IgG1 |
Conjugate: | Unconjugated |
Purification: | Purified from ascites by precipitation methods. |
Concentration: | 1 mg/ml |
Purity: | > 95% (by SDS-PAGE) |
Product Form: | Liquid |
Formulation: | Supplied in Phosphate Buffered Saline, pH 7.4, with 15mM Sodium Azide. |
Storage: | Store at 2-8°C. |
Target
Function: | Binds copper, nickel, and fatty acids as well as, and bilirubin less well than, serum albumin. Only a small percentage (less than 2%) of the human AFP shows estrogen-binding properties. |
Tissue Specificity: | Plasma. Synthesized by the fetal liver and yolk sac. |
Involvement in Disease: | Alpha-fetoprotein deficiency: A benign condition characterized by undetectable AFP levels in the amniotic fluid. Affected individuals are asymptomatic and present normal development. Alpha-fetoprotein, hereditary persistence: A benign autosomal dominant condition characterized by continued expression of alpha-fetoprotein in ***** life. |
Sequence Similarities: | Belongs to the ALB/AFP/VDB family. |
Post-Translational Modification: | Independent studies suggest heterogeneity of the N-terminal sequence of the mature protein and of the cleavage site of the signal sequence. |
Cellular Location: | Secreted. |

Synonyms: | |
Information: | Target information shown above is from the UniProt Consortium. |
