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.

Specificity

Clone 1B6 is a ZooMAb^® rabbit recombinant monoclonal antibody that specifically detects Serum paraoxonase/arylesterase 2 (PON2). It targets an epitope within 17 amino acids from the N-terminal half. Predicted to react with all three isoforms.

Target description

Serum paraoxonase/arylesterase 2 (UniProt: Q15165; also known as EC:3.1.1.2, PON 2, Aromatic esterase 2, A-esterase 2, Serum aryldialkylphosphatase 2) is encoded by the PON2 gene (Gene ID: 5445) in human. The paraoxonase (PON) gene family in humans consists of three conserved members, PON1, PON2, and PON3. They exhibit high similarity in their structural characteristics and have about ∼65% identity in their amino acids. PON2 is a membrane and peripheral membrane associated enzyme that is widely expressed with highest levels in liver, lung, placenta, testis, and heart tissue. It is capable of hydrolyzing lactones and a number of aromatic carboxylic acid esters and exhibits  antioxidant activity. It serves as an intracellular guardian against oxidative stress. It is shown to prevent LDL lipid peroxidation and reverse the oxidation of mildly oxidized LDL (MM-LDL). It inhibits the ability of MM-LDL to induce monocyte chemotaxis. PONS2 overexpressing cells exhibit significantly less intracellular oxidative stress following treatment with hydrogen peroxide or oxidized phospholipid. These cells are also less effective in oxidizing and modifying LDL. PON2 is also involved in modulation of ER stress and regulation of cell proliferation/apoptosis. During ER stress, PON2 reduces the induction of proapoptotic CHOP protein, particularly the protein kinase JNK pathway, and also protects intrinsic apoptotic signaling, by prevention of mitochondrial superoxide formation and caspase activation. Three isoforms of PON2 have been described that are produced by alternative splicing. This ZooMAb^® recombinant monoclonal antibody, generated by our propriety technology, offers significantly enhanced specificity, Affinity^™, reproducibility, and stability over conventional monoclonals.  (Ref.: Martinelli, N., et al.

Physical form

Purified recombinant rabbit monoclonal antibody IgG, lyophilized in PBS, 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.

Reconstitution

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.

Storage and Stability

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.

Other Notes

Concentration: Please refer to the Certificate of Analysis for the lot-specific concentration.
