α-1-antitrypsin belongs to the serpin family and is a strong serine protease inhibitor. Its pivotal role is to protect lower respiratory tract against proteolytic destruction by human leukocyte elastase. Mutation in AAT gene will reduce the serum concentration of α-1-antitrypsin and hence increase the risk of emphysema. Anti-α1-antitrypsin antibody (diluted 1:9000) can be used as a capture antibody for determination of transgene expressions levels. It can also be used in immunoelectrophoresis. Rabbit anti-α1-antitrypsin antibody reacts specifically with α1-antitrypsin of human.
Immunogen
Purified human α-1-antitrypsin
Application
Anti-α1-antitrypsin antibody (diluted 1: 1000) can be used in ELISA. It can also be used for probing immunoblots to identify A1AT. Additionally, it can be used in Ouchterlony double diffusion.
Applications in which this antibody has been used successfully, and the associated peer-reviewed papers, are given below. Western Blotting (1 paper)
Rabbit anti-α1-antitrypsin antibody can also be used in immunoelectrophoretic techniques.
Physical form

The acute-phase response is an immediate reaction of the host against invading microorganisms. We show here that oligodeoxynucleotides (ODNs) containing a CpG motif rapidly induce the major murine acute-phase proteins in vivo, i.e. serum amyloid A (SAA) and serum amyloid

Background: Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) has the greatest increase in mortality among all solids tumors in the United States related to low rates of early tumor detection. Development of noninvasive biomarkers for the early detection of HCC may reduce HCC-related mortality.Methods:

Identifying factors that influence gene transfer efficacy is critical for a successful gene-based clinical study. Here we demonstrate that in vivo AAV-2-mediated gene transfer is efficiently inhibited by unfractionated heparin, but not by a heparin preparation containing mainly low-molecular-weight forms
Nearly one-third of the encoded proteome is comprised of secretory proteins that enable communication between cells and organ systems, playing a ubiquitous role in human health and disease. High-throughput detection of secreted proteins would enhance efforts to identify therapies for
Obesity and associated metabolic comorbidities represent a growing public health problem. In this study, we demonstrate the use of a newly created fusion gene of exendin-4 and α1-antitrypsin to control obesity and obesity-associated metabolic disorders including insulin resistance, fatty liver
