Cystic Fibrosis Transmembrane Conductance Regulator (ATP-Binding Cassette Sub-Family C, Member 7) (CFTR) (C-Term) antibody

Antigen: Cystic Fibrosis Transmembrane Conductance Regulator (ATP-Binding Cassette Sub-Family C, Member 7) (CFTR)

Synonyms: CF, MRP7, ABC35, ABCC7, CFTR/MRP, TNR-CFTR, dJ760C5.1, CFTR

Epitope: C-Term

Clonality: Polyclonal

Host: Rabbit

Reactivity: Human

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

Catalog no.: ABIN350208

Additional Information

Alternative name: CFTR (c-terminal region)

Swiss-Prot: P13569

Immunogen: A synthetic peptide from the c-terminal region of human CFTR conjugated to an immunogenic carrier protein was used as the immunogen.

Format: Lyophilized

Description: FUNCTION: Involved in the transport of chloride ions. May regulate bicarbonate secretion and salvage in epithelial cells by regulating the SLC4A7 transporter. Defects in CFTR are the cause of congenital bilateral absence of the vas deferens (CBAVD). CBAVD is an important cause of sterility in men and could represent an incomplete form of cystic fibrosis, as the majority of men suffering from cystic fibrosis lack the vas deferens. Subcellular location: Membrane, Multi-pass membrane protein. Tissue specificity: Found on the surface of the epithelial cells that line the lungs and other organs. Also known as: Cystic fibrosistransmembrane conductance regulator, Channel conductance-controlling ATPase, cAMP-dependent chloride channel, ATP-binding cassette transporter sub-family C member 7.

Specificity: Appears to be specific for CFTR.

Application Details

Application Notes: IHC, WB. A dilution of 1 : 300 to 1 : 2000 is recommended. The optimal dilution should be determined by the end user. Not yet tested in other applications.

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
