ZooMAb® antibodies represent an entirely new generation of recombinant monoclonal antibodies.
Each ZooMAb® antibody is manufactured using our proprietary recombinant expression system, purified to homogeneity, and precisely dispensed to produce robust and highly reproducible lot-to-lot consistency. Only top-performing clones are released for use by researchers. Each antibody is validated for high specificity and affinity across multiple applications, including its most commonly used application. ZooMAb® antibodies are reliably available and ready to ship when you need them.

標靶描述
Rho-related GTP-binding protein RhoC (UniProt: P08134; also known as Rho cDNA clone 9, h9) is encoded by the RHOC (also known as ARH9, ARHC) gene (Gene ID: 389) in human. Rho GTPases that belong to the Ras superfamily of small GTPases are molecular switches cycling between a GDP-bound off- and a GTP-bound on-state. Three Rho GTPases have been identified in higher vertebrates: RhoA, RhoB, and RhoC. Despite their 85% homology of sequence, they play distinct roles in cells. They regulate cytoskeletal organization and thus affect multiple cellular functions, including cell motility, polarity, and division by switching between the GTP and GDP bound states. This switch in states is tightly regulated by Rho GTPase Activating Proteins (RhoGAPs). RhoC, mainly localized in the cytoplasmic side of plasma membrane, is synthesized with a propeptide (aa 191-193), which is subsequently cleaved off to produce the mature form. It contains a GTPase binding domain in the N-terminus and its C-terminus region consists of a geranylgeranyl group and carboxyl methylation extension. It is widely reported to regulate actin organization and is shown to impact the motility of cancer cells and affects invasion and metastasis. It is reported to contribute to carcinoma progression of the breast, pancreas, lung, ovaries, and cervix. Overexpression of RhoC has been linked to aggressive forms of cancers. This ZooMAb® recombinant monoclonal antibody, generated by our propriety technology, offers significantly enhanced specificity, affinity, reproducibility, and stability over conventional monoclonals.

外觀
Purified recombinant rabbit monoclonal antibody IgG, lyophilized in PBS with 5% Trehalose, normal appearance a coarse or translucent resin. The PBS/trehalose components in the ZooMAb formulation can have the appearance of a semi-solid (bead like gel) after lyophilization. This is a normal phenomenon. Please follow the recommended reconstitution procedure in the data sheet to dissolve the semi-solid, bead-like, gel-appearing material. The resulting antibody solution is completely stable and functional as proven by full functional testing. Contains no biocide or preservatives, such as azide, or any animal by-products. Larger pack sizes provided as multiples of 25 μL.
重構
300 μg/mL after reconstitution at 25 μL per vial. Please refer to guidance on suggested starting dilutions and/or titers per application and sample type.
儲存和穩定性
Recommend storage of lyophilized product at 2-8°C; Before reconstitution, micro-centrifuge vials briefly to spin down material to bottom of the vial; Reconstitute each vial by adding 25 μL of filtered lab grade water or PBS; Reconstituted antibodies can be stored at 2-8°C, or -20°C for long term storage. Avoid repeated freeze-thaws.
