Anti-Aggrecan (Cleaved-Asp369) Antibody detects endogenous levels of fragment of activated Aggrecan (Cleaved-Asp369) protein.
Aggrecan is a large aggregating chondroitin sulfate proteoglycan of the human cartilage. It is encoded by AGC1 (aggrecan) gene. It is located on human chromosome 15q26.1.
Immunogen
The antiserum was produced against synthesized peptide derived from human Aggrecan.
Immunogen Range: 320-369
Application
Anti-Aggrecan (Cleaved-Asp369), N-Terminal antibody has been used in western blotting[1][2] and immunostaining.
Biochem/physiol Actions
Mutations in aggrecan results in autosomal dominant short stature with accelerated skeletal maturation. Mutation in the variable repeat region of the aggrecan gene (AGC1) leads to spondyloepiphyseal dysplasia.
Features and Benefits
Evaluate our antibodies with complete peace of mind. If the antibody does not perform in your application, we will issue a full credit or replacement antibody. Learn more.
Physical form
Rabbit IgG in phosphate buffered saline (without Mg2+ and Ca2+), pH 7.4, 150mM NaCl, 0.02% sodium azide and 50% glycerol.
