Popis

General description

50 kDa

Glial fibrillary acidic protein is a class-III intermediate filament. GFAP is the main constituent of intermediate filaments in astrocytes and serves as a cell specific marker that distinguishes differentiated astrocytes from other glial cells during the development of the central nervous system.

Immunogen

Purified Glial Fibrillary Acidic Protein (GFAP) from pig spinal cord (Debus, E., 1983).

Application

Anti-Glial Fibrillary Acidic Protein Antibody, clone GA5 is an antibody against Glial Fibrillary Acidic Protein for use in IC, IH, IH(P) & WB with more than 55 product citations.

Immunocytochemistry:
5 μg/mL of a previous lot was used.

Immunohistochemistry:
5 µg/mL

Immunoblotting:
Recognizes a 51kDa protein in reducing westerns of total brain lysates.

Optimal working dilutions must be determined by end user.

Research Category
Neuroscience

Research Sub Category
Neuronal & Glial Markers

Biochem/physiol Actions

Expected to cross-react with porcine, chicken, bovine, and rabbit.

The antibody reacts with GFAP from human, pig, chicken and rat. In tissue sections this antibody stains astrocytes and Bergman glia cells (Debus, E., 1983).
