Popis

General description

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.

~ 51 kDa

Immunogen

Purified GFAP from porcine spinal cord.

Application

Anti-Glial Fibrillary Acidic Protein Antibody, clone GA5 detects level of Glial Fibrillary Acidic Protein & has been published & validated for use in IC, IH, IH(P) & WB with more than 65 product citations.

Immunocytochemistry:
A previous lot was used on cultured mammalian cells.

Immunohistochemistry(paraffin):
1:400-1:800 dilution from a previous lot was used on alcohol-fixed paraffin embedded sections of rat brain (cerebrum or cerebellum) and human brain.

Immunoblotting: A 1:1000 dilution of a previous lot was used.

Optimal working dilutions must be determined by the end user

Biochem/physiol Actions

Glial fibrillar acidic protein. On western blots of extracts from a human glioma cell line (U33CG/343MG), MAB360 recognizes a band at approximately 51 kDa corresponding to GFAP (Debus, 1983). By immunohistochemistry it recognizes astrocytes and Bergmann glia cells, glioma and glial cell derived tumors. Shows no cross-reactivity with vimentin.

Reactivity with other species has not been determined.

Physical form

Unpurified mouse monoclonal IgG1 liquid in buffer containing 15 mM sodium azide.

Analysis Note

Control
Positive Control: Cultured astrocytes, brain tissue (white matter), spinal chord, retina

Routinely evaluated by Western Blot on Mouse brain lysates.

Western Blot Analysis:
1:1000 dilution of this lot detected GFAP on 10 μg of Mouse brain lysates.
