Description

General description

Glutathione-S-transferases (GSTs) are dimeric proteins, which belongs to phase II detoxification enzymes family. The highly polymorphic human cytosolic GSTs are divided into six classes, such as, α, μ, ω, π, θ, and ζ.

The antibody is specific for native as well as denatured-reduced forms of glutathione-S-transferase from Schistosoma japonicum. Anti-GST may be used in various immunoassays to identify the expression of GST fusion proteins.

Immunogen

recombinant GST from Schistosoma japonicum expressed in E. coli.

Application

Immunoprecipitation was performed on NIH 3T3 cells transiently transfected with GST fusion proteins. IP was performed using agarose-linked rabbit anti-GST IgG with mixing for 2 hours at 4 degrees.

Rabbit Anti-Glutathione-S-Transferase (GST)-Agarose antibody can be used for ELISA, immunoaffinity purification and immunoprecipitation assays.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Glutathione-S-transferases (GSTs) can catalyse the conjugation of glutathione (GSH) to various endogenous and exogenous electrophilic compounds. The π and μ classes of GSTs controls the mitogen-activated protein (MAP) kinase pathway. It can also serve as transport proteins.

Physical form

Suspension in 0.01 M phosphate buffered saline, pH 7.4, containing 15 mM sodium azide

Preparation Note

Prepared by coupling cyanogen bromide-activated agarose at 7-8 mg antibody per mL resin volume.
