Lhcb3 antibody

Catalog No. ABIN7477847

Product Details anti-Lhcb3 Antibody

Target: Lhcb3 (Lhcii Type III Chlorophyll A/B-Binding Protein (Lhcb3))

Reactivity: Pisum sativum, Spinach, Zea mays, Arabidopsis thaliana, Barley, Green bean, Nicotiana tabacum, Oryza sativa

Host: Rabbit

Clonality: Polyclonal

Application: Western Blotting (WB)

Characteristics: Expected / apparent Molecular Weight of the Antigene: 24 / 26 kDa for Arabidopsis thaliana

Purification: affinity purified

Immunogen: BSA-conjugated synthetic peptide derived from a highly conserved sequence of Lhcb3 proteins from angiosperms (monocots and dicots) and gymnosperms, including Arabidopsis thaliana Lhcb3 UniProt: Q9S7M0,TAIR:At5g54270. This sequence is highly conserved even in Ginko biloba and one of the major LHCII-forms of Physcomitrella patens.

Isotype: IgG

Application Details

Application Notes: Recommended Dilution: 1 : 2000 with standard ECL (WB).

Restrictions: For Research Use only

Handling

Format: Lyophilized

Reconstitution: For reconstitution add 200 µL of sterile water

Buffer: PBS pH 7.4

Handling Advice: Please, remember to spin tubes briefly prior to opening them to avoid any losses that might occur from lyophilized material adhering to the cap or sides of the tubes.
Once reconstituted make aliquots to avoid repreated freeze-thaw cycles.

Storage: -20 °C

Target Details for Lhcb3

Target: Lhcb3 (Lhcii Type III Chlorophyll A/B-Binding Protein (Lhcb3))

Background: AGI Code: At5g54270
The major light-harvesting antenna complex II (LHCII) in photsynthetic eukaryotes is located in the thylakoid membrane of the chloroplast. It is a heterotrimeric complex formed by up to 3 different individual subtypes of chlorophyll a/b-binding proteins: Lhcb1, Lhcb2, and Lhcb3. While Lhcb1 and Lhcb2 are quite similar and regularily present in multiple gene-copies, the Lhcb3 protein differs in pigment-composition and molecular size and often is coded by only a single gene. Lhcb3 seems not to be present in the mobile LHCII trimers involved in state 1-state 2 transitions. A molecular characterisation of the LHCII proteins can be found in Caffarri et al. (2004) A Look within LHCII: Differential Analysis of the Lhcb1-3 Complexes Building the Major Trimeric Antenna Complex of Higher-Plant Photosynthesis. Biochemistry 43 (29): 9467-9476.
