Reactivity: Human
IHC, ELISA
Host: Rabbit
Polyclonal
unconjugated
Application Notes
ELISA: Direct: To detect hNOV (using 100 μL/well antibody solution) a concentration of0.25 - 1.0 μg/mL of this antibody is required. In conjunction with compatible secondaryreagents, it allows the detection of at least 0.2 - 0.4 ng/well of recombinant hNOV. Sandwich: To detect hNOV (using 100 μL/well antibody solution) a concentration of0.25 - 1.0 μg/mL of this antibody is required. In conjunction with Polyclonal Anti-HumanNOV as a capture antibody, it allows the detection of at least 0.2 - 0.4 ng/well ofrecombinant hNOV. Western blot: To detect hNOV this antibody can be used at a concentration of0.1 - 0.2 μg/mL. Used in conjunction with compatible secondary reagents the detectionlimit for recombinant hNOV is 1.5 - 3.0 ng/lane, under either reducing or non-reducingconditions. Other applications not tested. Optimal dilutions are dependent on conditions and should be determined by the user.

Background
CCN3 is a cysteine-rich protein that is overexpressed in avian nephroblastomas. It is a member of the CCN family of proteins that includes CTGF. These proteins are encoded by a group of genes known as immediate-early genes, so named because they are expressed after induction by growth factors or certain oncogenes. The proteins share several common structural motifs: a consensus sequence present in IGF (insulin-like growth factor)-binding proteins (the IGFBP motif), an oligomeric complex-forming domain first identified in von Willebrand factor, a binding domain to soluble and matrix molecules and a dimerization (CT) domain. All CCN family members are thought to be involved in the control of cell proliferation.Synonyms: CCN3, IGFBP9, NOVH, NovH, Protein NOV homolog
