GOLGA5 antibody is human, mouse and rat reactive. Two isoforms of GOLGA5 exist due to alternative splicing events.
Purification
GOLGA5 Antibody is affinity chromatography purified via peptide column.
Immunogen
GOLGA5 antibody was raised against an 18 amino acid peptide near the carboxy terminus of human GOLGA5. The immunogen is located within amino acids 540 - 590 of GOLGA5.
GOLGA5 antibody can be used for detection of GOLGA5 by Western blot at 1 - 2 μ,g/mL. Antibody can also be used for Immunohistochemistry starting at 5 μ,g/mL. For immunofluorescence start at 20 μ,g/mL.
Antibody validated: Western Blot in human samples, Immunohistochemistry in human samples and Immunofluorescence in human samples. All other applications and species not yet tested.

GOLGA5 Antibody: GOLGA5 (Golgi autoantigen, subfamily A, member 5), also known as GOLGA84, RFG5 (RET-fused gene 5 protein) or GOLIM5, is a ubiquitously expressed single-pass type II coiled-coil membrane protein that is involved in maintaining Golgi structure (1). It is localized to the Golgi apparatus and predominantly found on membranes at the cis side of the Golgi stack (1,2). As a mitotic phosphoprotein, GOLGA5 binds to active Rab 1 and associates with CASP (an isoform of CDP) in a golgin-tethering complex that is believed to play a role in intra-Golgi retrograde transport (3,4). Defects in GOLGA5 are a cause of thyroid papillary carcinoma (TPC) (5).
