SpecificityThe specificity of this antibody has been confirmed by WB and IHC against the antigen. Human; rat; predicted to react with mouse due to sequence homology;
Species ReactivityHuman, Mouse (Predicted), Rat
Immunogen DescriptionA synthetic peptide corresponding to a region (88-102 aa) from human Annexin V.
ConjugateUnconjugated
Purity DescriptionAffinity purified on antigen column
Application DetailsImmunohistochemistry (IHC) and Western Blotting (WB). A concentration of 0.1-0.5 µg/mL is recommended for WB. Human Annexin V has a predicted length of 320 residues and a MW of 36 kDa. A concentration of 0.5-1 µg/mL is recommended to detect Annexin V in formalin fixed and paraffin embedded tissues. Heat mediated antigen retrieval is required. Biosensis recommends optimal dilutions/concentrations should be determined by the end user.

Scientific BackgroundAnnexin V, also known as Annexin A5, belongs to the annexin family of calcium dependent phospholipid binding proteins. Annexin V has roles in cellular signal transduction, inflammation, growth and differentiation. Annexin V has been shown to have a high affinity for phosphatidylserine (PS) and is therefore a potential probe for the detection of apoptosis.
