Purpose
- Anti-Pregnancy Associated Plasma Protein A (PAPP-A) Antibody
-
Specificity
- ABIN8065522 is specific for native human PAPP-A. Heat and SDS denatured PAPP-A is also recognized, but not acid treated PAPP-A. The epitope of ABIN8065522 is different from ABIN8065520 and ABIN8065521. The epitope is located on the PAPP-A subunit of the heterotetramer.

Background
- PAPPA, ASBABP2, DIPLA1, IGFBP-4ase, PAPA, PAPP-A, PAPPA1, pappalysin-1, IGF-dependent IGFBP-4 protease, aspecific BCL2 ARE-binding protein 2, differentially placenta 1 expressed protein, insulin-like growth factor-dependent IGF binding protein-4 protease, pregnancy-associated plasma protein A, pappalysin 1,Metalloproteinase which specifically cleaves IGFBP-4 and IGFBP-5, resulting in release of bound IGF. Cleavage of IGFBP-4 is dramatically enhanced by the presence of IGF, whereas cleavage of IGFBP-5 is slightly inhibited by the presence of IGF. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:10077652, ECO:0000269|PubMed:10913121, ECO:0000269|PubMed:11522292}.,PAPPA,Pregnancy-associated plasma protein-A (PAPP-A, Insulin-like growth factor binding protein-4 protease, PAPP-A-proMBP complex) is a large heterotetrameric glycoprotein of approximately 500 kDa, which was first discovered in serum from pregnant women. The hetreotetramer consists of two PAPP-A subunits and two proMBP subunits. Low maternal serum levels of PAPP-A in first trimester biochemical screening is used as a marker of Down's syndrome (trisomy 21).
