Description

General description

Aquaporins (AQPs) are a family of channel proteins that allow water or very small solutes to pass, functioning in tissues where the rapid and regulated transport of fluid is necessary, such as the kidney, lung, and salivary glands. Aquaporin 5 is considered to play an important role in water movement across the plasma membrane in salivary fluid secretion and corneal/lens lubrication and is a focus of studies illucidating bechanisms underlying diabetic xerostomia.

~28 kDa observed

Immunogen

Epitope: Cytoplasmic domain

KLH-conjugated linear peptide corresponding to the cytoplasmic domain of rat Aquaporin 5.

Application

Immunohistochemistry Analysis: A 1:500-2,000 dilution from a representative lot detected Aquaporin 5 in rat lung and mouse trachea tissue.
Immunohistochemistry Analysis: A representative lot from independent laboratories detected Aquaporin 5 in various paraformaldehyde fixed tissues (see references).

This Anti-Aquaporin 5 (AQP5) Antibody is validated for use in WB for the detection of Aquaporin 5 (AQP5).

Biochem/physiol Actions

Aquaporin 5 (AQP5). By Western blot the antibody reacts with a band at ~ 24 kDa on rat submaxillary gland lysate.

Physical form

ImmunoAffinity Purified

Purified rabbit polyclonal in buffer containing PBS with 0.05% sodium azide.

Preparation Note

Maintain at 2-8°C in undiluted aliquots for up to 1 year after date of receipt.

During shipment, small volumes of product will occasionally become entrapped in the seal of the product vial. For products with volumes of 200μL or less, we recommend gently tapping the vial on a hard surface or briefly centrifuging the vial in a tabletop centrifuge to dislodge any liquid in the container′s cap.

Analysis Note

Control
Tested on Rat Salivary Gland Lysate

Evaluated by Western Blotting in rat salivary gland tissue lysate.

Western Blotting Analysis: 0.1 µg/mL of this antibody detected Aquaporin 5 in 10 µg of rat salivary gland tissue lysate.
