| Short Description : | Goat polyclonal antibody anti-ABCA8 (C-Term) is suitable for use in ELISA research applications. |
| Clonality : | Polyclonal |
| Conjugation: | Unconjugated |
| Isotype: | IgG |
| Formulation: | 0.5 mg/ml in Tris saline, 0.02% sodium azide, pH7.3 with 0.5% bovine serum albumin. NA |
| Purification: | Purified from goat serum by ammonium sulphate precipitation followed by antigen affinity chromatography using the immunizing peptide. |
| Concentration: | 0.5 mg/mL |
| Dilution Range: | Peptide ELISA: antibody detection limit dilution 1:4000.WB: Preliminary experiments gave an approx. 50-55kDa band in Human Brain (Cerebellum, Cerebral Cortex, Frontal Cortex) , Heart, Skeletal Muscle and Testis lysates after 0.3µg/ml antibody st |
| Storage Instruction: | Store at-20°C on receipt and minimise freeze-thaw cycles. |
| Gene Symbol: | ABCA8 |
| Gene ID: | 10351 |
| Uniprot ID: | ABCA8_HUMAN |
| Immunogen Region: | C-Term |
| Accession Number: | NP_009099.1 |
| Specificity: | This antibody is expected to cross-react with the highly similar Human ABCA9, since the immunizing peptide differs from ABCA9 with only one residue (F8). |

| Function | Isoform 1: Catalyzes ATP-dependent import of organic anions such as taurocholate and estrone sulfate. In vitro, also imports ochratoxin A. Also mediates cholesterol efflux independent of apolipoprotein, and plays a role in sphingomyelin production in oligodendrocytes. Isoform 3: Catalyzes ATP-dependent efflux of cholesterol and taurocholate. Interaction with ABCA1 potentiates cholesterol efflux to lipid-free APOA1, which regulates high-density lipoprotein cholesterol levels. |
