| Description |
The Insulin-like 3 (INSL3) precursor is cleaved into 2 chains; Insulin-like 3 B and Insulin-like 3 A. The protein is a heterodimer of a B chain and an A chain linked by two disulfide bonds. INSL3 is expressed in prenatal and postnatal Leydig cells as well in the corpus luteum, trophoblast, fetal membranes and breast. |

| Antigen |
A synthetic peptide corresponding to a region (115-131) from human Insulin-like 3 (INSL3). To enhance the immunological response, this peptide was coupled to carrier protein BSA. |
| Other Names |
Leydig insulin-like peptide; Ley-I-L; Relaxin-like factor; INSL3; RLF; RLNL; |
| Accession |
P51460 INSL3_HUMAN; |
| Produced in |
Rabbit |
| Purity |
Affinity purified on antigen column |
| Applications |
Immunohistochemistry (IHC) and Western Blotting (WB). A concentration of 1.0 ug/mL is recommended for WB. Human INSL3 (precursor) has a predicted length of 131 residues and MW of 14 kDa. A concentration of 1.0 ug/mL is recommended to detect the protein in formalin fixed and paraffin embedded tissues. Biosensis recommends optimal dilutions/concentrations should be determined by the end user. |
| Specificity |
The specificity of this antibody has been confirmed by WB (Human, rat) and IHC (Human) against the antigen. |
| Cross-reactivity |
Human; rat; predicted to react with mouse due to sequence homology; |
| Blast it |
If you wish to use this product in a species other than those specified here and want to determine the amino acid sequence homology between the immunogen and the corresponding protein in that species, simply copy the amino acid sequence for this immunogen and test it on the BLAST database that you can access through the link below. Please note that antibodies raised against synthetic peptides are quite often very specific for that peptide. What this means in practise is that a single amino acid difference may be enough to restrict the specificity to a particular molecule.
The BLAST database can also be used to compare any amino acid sequence between species and between protein. The full amino acid sequence of the target protein can be found by following the link in the Accession field. You can then search any amino acid sequence in the target protein using the BLAST database. When selecting a sequence to search, please choose carefully, as the sequence you choose may be a precursor rather than the mature protein for example. |
| Form |
