IgG consists of four sub-classes, like IgG1, IgG2, IgG3, and IgG4. IgG is composed of four polypeptide chains-two heavy chains (γ chains) and two light chains (κ or λ chains) which are linked by inter-chain disulfide bonds. The heavy chains consist of a N-terminal variable domain (VH) and three constant domains (CH1, CH2, CH3). A hinge region exists between the CH1 and CH2 region. The light chains have one N-terminal variable domain (VL) and one constant domain (CL).
Immunogen
Purified guinea pig IgG
Application
Anti-H. pylori IgGs in guinea pig sera was measured by ELISA using HRP-conjugated goat anti-guinea pig IgG (A 7289) at a dilution of 1:2000 in 1% BSA/PBS for 1 hour at 37°C.
Anti-Guinea Pig IgG (whole molecule)-Peroxidase antibody is suitable for use in immunocytochemistry and ELISA.
Biochem/physiol Actions
Guinea pig IgGs against target proteins are often used as primary antibodies in various research applications. Thus, secondary anti-guinea pig IgGs conjugated to detectable substrates are useful tools for the analysis of target proteins. Anti-Guinea Pig IgG (whole molecule)-Peroxidase antibody is specific for guinea pig IgG.
IgGs are glycoprotein antibodies that modulate several immune responses. It plays a major role in providing immunity to the infant from the mother via the placenta. IgG activates the complement system and regulates the antibody-dependent cell-mediated cytotoxicity (ADCC).
Physical form
Solution in 0.01 M phosphate buffered saline, pH 7.4, containing 1% bovine serum albumin with preservative.
Preparation Note
Antiserum is developed in goat using purified guinea pig IgG as the immunogen. Antibody is isolated from goat anti-guinea pig IgG antiserum by immunospecific purification which removes essentially all goat serum proteins, including immunoglobulins that do not specifically bind to guinea pig IgG. Goat anti-guinea pig IgG is conjugated to Sigma Horseradish Peroxidase, Type VI (Product No. P 8375) by a modification of the periodate method of Wilson and Nakane.

Humans infected with Helicobacter pylori have abnormally low levels of the antioxidant vitamin C, which protects against the formation of carcinogenic nitrosamines, in gastric juice. Guinea pigs, like humans and nonhuman primates, have a dietary requirement for vitamin C. As
The European honeybee (Apis mellifera L.) exhibits various social behaviors. The molecular and neural mechanisms underlying these behaviors have long been explored, but causal relations between genes or neurons and behaviors remain to be elucidated because effective gene manipulation methods
Immunocytochemical staining based on the peroxidase-antiperoxidase method has shown that some neurosecretory cells (NSC) in the synganglion of the adult female tick Ornithodoros parkeri react with an antibody to bovine insulin. There are 18 regions of paraldehyde fuchsin-positive NSC of
Experimental Helicobacter pylori Infection Induces Antral Gastritis and Gastric Mucosa-Associated Lymphoid Tissue in Guinea Pigs.
DNA vaccines delivered using electroporation (EP) have had clinical success, but these EP methods generally utilize invasive needle electrodes. Here, we demonstrate the delivery and immunogenicity of a DNA vaccine into subcutaneous adipose tissue cells using noninvasive EP. Using finite
