Epitope: internal

Clonality: Polyclonal

Host: Rabbit

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

Catalog no.: ABIN350267

Additional Information

Alternative name: CTRP5 (Complement C1q tumor necrosis factor-related protein 5, C1QTNF5) (internal region)

Swiss-Prot: Q9BXJ0

Immunogen: A synthetic peptide from the internal region of human CTRP5 (Complement C1q tumor necrosis factor-related protein 5, C1QTNF5) conjugated to an immunogenic carrier protein was used as the immunogen. The antigen is homologous in rat and mouse.

Format: Lyophilized

Description: Defects in C1QTNF5 are a cause of late-onset retinal degeneration (LORD). LORD is an autosomal dominant disorder characterized by onset in the fifth to sixth decade with night blindness and punctate yellow-white deposits in the retinal fundus, progressing to severe central and peripheral degeneration, with choroidal neovascularization and chorioretinal atrophy. Subcellular location: Secreted Also known as: Complement C1q tumor necrosis factor-related protein 5, C1QTNF5.

Specificity: Appears to be specific for CTRP5.

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
