Alstrom Syndrome 1 (ALMS1) (C-Term) antibody

Antigen: Alstrom Syndrome 1 (ALMS1)

Synonyms: ALSS, KIAA0328, DKFZp686A118, DKFZp686D1828, bbb, ALMS1

Epitope: C-Term

Clonality: Polyclonal

Host: Rabbit

Application: Immunohistochemistry (IHC), Western Blotting (WB)

Catalog no.: ABIN350040

Additional Information

Alternative name: Alstrom syndrome protein 1 homolog (ALMS1) (c-terminal region)

Swiss-Prot: P60880

Immunogen: A synthetic peptide from C-terminal part of mouse Alstrom syndrome protein 1 homolog (ALMS1) conjugated to an immunogenic carrier protein was used as the immunogen.

Format: Lyophilized

Description: FUNCTION: Possible role in intracellular trafficking. SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Cytoplasm. Centrosome. Cell projection, cilium basal body. Note: Associated with centrosomes and basal body at the base of primary cilia. During mitosis localizes to both spindle poles. TISSUE SPECIFICITY: Ubiquitously expressed. DEVELOPMENTAL STAGE: Expressed at E7.5. At E8.0 expression is found in mesodermal- and ectodermal-derived layers. At E10.5 mainly detected in midbrain, hindbrain, forelimb and hindlimb. Also expressed at E15.5 and E18.5. MISCELLANEOUS: Mice lacking Alms1 display obesity, hypogonadism, hyperinsulinemia, retinal dysfunction and hearing loss. Also known as: ALMS1.

Specificity: Appears to be specific for ALMS1.

Application Details

Application Notes: IHC, WB (confirmed by recombinant protein). A dilution of 1 : 300 to 1 : 2000 is recommended. The optimal dilution should be determined by the end user.

Purity: whole serum

Storage: Maintain the lyophilised/reconstituted antibodies frozen at -20°C for long term storage and refrigerated at 2-8°C for a shorter term. When reconstituting, glycerol (1:1) may be added for an additional stability. Avoid freeze and thaw cycles.

Restrictions: For Research Use only
