Anti-Growth-Associated Protein-43 (GAP-43) Antibody

This antipeptide IgY antibody was generated in chickens against a C-terminal sequence shared between the mouse (NP_032109) and rat (NP_05889.1) gene products. It has been validated with human, mouse and rat tissues.

Product Specifications

Background

Growth-Associated Protein-43 is a 274 amino acid cytoplasmic protein found in neurons and various other embryonic cell types. This protein also goes by a number of alternative names, including neuromodulin and F1. In cultured neurons, GAP-43 antibodies selectively stain the growth cones of axons. As the substrate for various phosphorylation events, it is believed that GAP-43 plays a critical role in axonal growth, although its exact function is still unclear.

Format

IgY Fraction

Buffer

Phosphate-buffered (10 mM) isotonic (0.9%, w/v) saline ("PBS" pH 7.2) with bovine serum albumin (BSA, 0.5%) added to prevent absorption to the plastic and sodium azide (0.02%, w/v) added as a preservative

Molecular Weight

43 kDa

Shipping Conditions

Ice packs

Storage Conditions

Store at 4°C in the dark. Under these conditions, the antibodies should have a shelf life of at least twelve months, provided they remain sterile. For longer term storage, aliquot and freeze to avoid freeze-thaw of the antibody.

Notes

Chickens were immunized with a synthetic peptide corresponding to the C-terminal region of mouse GAP-43 coupled to keyhole limpet hemocyanin. After repeated injections, immune eggs were collected, the IgY fractions were purified from the yolks, and the IgY concentration adjusted to 20 mg/mL. This preparation was then diluted 1:10 with PBS containing bovine serum albumin as a carrier. Finally, the antibody preparation was filter-sterilized.

IHC Dilution

1:500-1:1000

WB Dilution

1:1000-1:2000

ICC Dilution

1:500-1:1000

Quality Control

Quality assurance analysis was performed using immunohistochemistry (at a dilution of 1:1000) using fluorescein-labeled goat anti-chicken IgY (1:1000 dilution, Aves Labs Cat.# F-1005) as the secondary reagent.

Recommended Usage

These antibodies are to be used as research laboratory reagents and are not for use as diagnostic or therapeutic reagents in humans.
