Beschreibung

General description

Agouti-related peptide-expressing (AgRP) neurons seem to be critical for the acute regulation of eating. The AgRP protein is a strong antagonis of MC3-R and MC4-R and is expressed primarily in the adrenal gland, subthalamic nucleus, and hypothalamus, with a lower level of expression occurring in testis, lung, and kidney.

Immunogen

A 15 amino acid peptide near the C-terminus of mouse AGRP (Shutter et al. 1997; Ollmann et al. 1997).

Application

Detect Agouti Related Protein using this Anti-Agouti Related Protein Antibody validated for use in ELISA & WB.

Research Category
Metabolism

Research Sub Category
Glucose/Glycogen Metabolism

Western blot: 1-10 μg/mL using ECL.



ELISA: 1:10,000-1:50,000 using 50-100 ng control peptide per well.

Optimal working dilutions must be determined by the end user.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Recognizes AGRP. The immunogen shows no significant sequence homology with Agouti, tubby, tub, TULP1 or TULP2.

SPECIES REACTIVITIES: The immunogen sequence is 85% homologous with human and bovine. Reactivity with other species has not been confirmed.

Physical form

Liquid in phosphate buffered saline containing 0.1% BSA.

Preparation Note

Maintain at -20°C in undiluted aliquots for up to 6 months. Avoid repeated freeze/thaw cycles.

Other Notes

Concentration: Please refer to the Certificate of Analysis for the lot-specific concentration.
