XK Antibody - N-terminal region: Biotin (ARP33809_P050-Biotin)

This locus controls the synthesis of the Kell blood group 'precursor substance' (Kx) . Mutations in this gene have been associated with McLeod syndrome, an X-linked, recessive disorder characterized by abnormalities in the neuromuscular and hematopoietic systems. XK has structural characteristics of prokaryotic and eukaryotic membrane transport proteins. This locus controls the synthesis of the Kell blood group 'precursor substance' (Kx) .

All conjugated antibodies should be stored in light-protected vials or covered with a light protecting material (i.e. aluminum foil) . Conjugated antibodies are stable for at least 12 months at 4C. If longer storage is desired (24 months), conjugates may be diluted with up to 50% glycerol and stored at -20C to -80C. Freezing and thawing conjugated antibodies will compromise enzyme activity as well as antibody binding.
