Product Name :
Sheep anti Human Glypican-3 (GPC3)

Description :
| Isotype IgG | Product Type Polyclonal Antibody | Units 500 µg | Host Sheep | Species Reactivity Human | Application Immunohistochemistry (paraffin) Western Blotting

Background :
Immunogen: C terminal recombinant protein (~70aa) which does not overlap with clone 1G12 epitope)

Source :
Glypican-3 encodes a putative extracellular proteoglycan that is inferred to play an important role in growth control in embryonic mesodermal tissues in which it is selectively expressed. It appears to form a complex with insulin-like growth factor and hence modulate IGF2 action. Glypican-3 is the human homolog of OCI-5, a GPI-linked proteoglycan first isolated from rat intestine. Originally identified as the molecular basis for Simpson-Golabi-Behmel syndrome (SGBS) also called Simpson dysmorphia syndrome (SDYS). Synonyms: GPC3, GPC-3, OCI5, OCI-5, GTR2-2, MXR7 <

Antibodies are immunoglobulins secreted by effector lymphoid B cells into the bloodstream. Antibodies consist of two light peptide chains and two heavy peptide chains that are linked to each other by disulfide bonds to form a “Y” shaped structure. Both tips of the “Y” structure contain binding sites for a specific antigen. Antibodies are commonly used in medical research, pharmacological research, laboratory research, and health and epidemiological research. They play an important role in hot research areas such as targeted drug development, in vitro diagnostic assays, characterization of signaling pathways, detection of protein expression levels, and identification of candidate biomarkers.
