Quick Overview for Follistatin antibody (ABIN7504142)

Target: Follistatin (FST)

Reactivity: Human

Host: Mouse

Clonality: Monoclonal

Conjugate: This Follistatin antibody is un-conjugated

Application: ELISA, Immunohistochemistry (Formalin-fixed Sections) (IHC (f))

Product Details anti-Follistatin Antibody

Specificity: Follistatin is a single-chain glycosylated protein that inhibits follicle stimulating hormone (FSH) release. Alternative splicing of Follistatin mRNA yields two isoforms, FS315 and FS288. FS288 is the main cell-surface form and binds to surface heparin sulphate proteoglycans. FST/4281 is a clone raised against recombinant Fst 288, and is used in combination, commonly as the capture, with antibody FST/4282 in a two site ELISA for the detection of Follistatin.

Cross-Reactivity (Details): Human.

Purification: 200ug/ml of Ab purified from Bioreactor Concentrate by Protein A/G.

Immunogen: Raised to human Follistatin (Fst) 288 and recognizes both human Fst 288 and 315

Isotype: IgG1
