Biochem/physiol Actions

Specific for human prion protein (PrP). This antibody immunolabels amyloid plaques in formalin-fixed paraffin sections from Creutzfeld-Jakob Disease (CJD) brain.The prion protein is a large membrane protein that occurs normally in neurons of the human brain and is thought to be involved in synaptic transmission. In prion diseases, such as CJD, Gerstmann-Straussler-Scheinker syndrome (GSS), Fatal Familial Insomnia (FFI), Alpers Syndrome and Kuru, the normal cellular form of this protein (PrPc) is transformed into an altered protein when it comes into contact with an infectious prion protein (PrPsc) from another host. This altered PrPsc accumulates in cytoplasmic vesicles of diseased individuals forming lesions, vacuoles and amyloid deposits.

Physical form

Goat serum. Liquid containing 0.01% thimerosal

Preparation Note

Maintain at -20°C in undiluted aliquots for up to 12 months. Avoid repeated freeze/thaw cycles.
