Application(s)ICC, WB
Antibody HostSheep
Antibody TypePolyclonal
SpecificityThe specificity of this antibody has been confirmed by WB against the antigen. This antibody was also validated for immunoprecipitation in rat liver lysate (data not shown). Human; mouse; rat;
Species ReactivityHuman, Mouse, Rat
Immunogen DescriptionA synthetic peptide (C-SNQLAWFDTDL) corresponding to the amino acid region 771-781 of human Catenin beta coupled to carrier protein KLH.
Application DetailsWestern Blotting (WB) and Immunoprecipitation. A concentration of 1.0 µg/mL is recommended for WB. Human Catenin beta (isoform 1) has a predicted length of 781 residues and MW of 86 kDa. A concentration of 5 µg/500 µg of lysate is recommended for immunoprecipitation. Biosensis recommends optimal dilutions/concentrations should be determined by the end user.
