Growth Hormone (GH) antibody

Antigen: Growth Hormone (GH)

Synonyms: GH, GH1, gh, Gh, GH2

Clonality: Monoclonal (PG3H5AT)

Host: Mouse

Reactivity: Human

Application: ELISA, Western Blotting (WB)

Catalog no.: ABIN335039

Additional Information

Alternative name: Growth Hormone

Isotype: IgG2b  (Matching secondary antibodies)

Clone: PG3H5AT

Description: GH is a member of the somatotropin/prolactin family of hormones which play an important role in growth control. The gene, along with four other related genes, is located at the growth hormone locus on chromosome 17 where they are interspersed in the same transcriptional orientation

Application Details

Application Notes: an arrangement which is thought to have evolved by a series of gene duplications. The five genes share a remarkably high degree of sequence identity. Alternative splicing generates additional isoforms of each of the five growth hormones, leading to further diversity and potential for specialization. This particular family member is expressed in the pituitary but not in placental tissue as is the case for the other four genes in the growth hormone locus. Mutations in or deletions of the gene lead to growth hormone deficiency and short stature. Synonyms: GH1, GH, GHN, GH-N, hGH-N, Pituitary growth hormone, Growth hormone 1, Somatotropin.

Purity: GH antibody was purified from mouse ascitic fluids by protein-G affinity chromatography.

Purification: GH Antibody is derived from hybridization of mouse SP2/O myeloma cells with spleen cells from BALB/c mice immunized with recombinant Growth hormone.

Buffer: 1mg/ml containing PBS, pH-7.4, & 0.1% sodium azide.

Storage: Hormones
