Growth Hormone (GH) antibody

Antigen: Growth Hormone (GH)

Synonyms: GH, GH1, gh, Gh, GH2

Clonality: Monoclonal (GH-15)

Host: Please enquire

Reactivity: Human

Application: Immunohistochemistry (Paraffin-embedded Sections) (IHC (p))

Catalog no.: ABIN343571

Additional Information

Alternative name: Growth hormone

Immunogen: Recombinant hGH. Purification Purified by the goat anti-mouse IgG affinity chromatography.

Format: Affinity-purified

Isotype: IgG1

Clone: GH-15

Description: Growth Hormone (GH) is mapped to 17q22-q24. Human growth hormone has a molecular mass of 22,005 and contains 191 amino acid residues with 2 disulfide bridges. It binds two receptor molecules and thereby induces signal transduction through receptor dimerization. At high concentrations, GH acts as an antagonist because of a large difference in affinities at the respective binding sites.

Specificity: Human. No cross reactivity with other proteins.

Application Details

Application Notes: Immunohistochemistry (Paraffin-embedded Sections): At 2-4 µg/ml to detect growth hormone in formalin fixed and paraffin embedded tissues. Other applications have not been tested. Optimal dilutions should be determined by end user.

Buffer: Lyophilized from 1.2% sodium acetate, with 2mg BSA and 0.2mg NaN3 as preservative.

Storage: At -20°C for one year. After reconstitution, at 4°C for one month. It can also be aliquotted and stored frozen at -20°C for longer time. Reconstitution: 1.2% sodium acetate or neutral PBS. If 1ml of PBS is used, the antibody concentration will be 100µg/ml.
