Anti-Nicotinic Acetylcholine Receptor alpha 1/CHRNA1 Antibody Picoband®

SKU: PA1203

Size: 100 μg

Storage: Store at -20℃ for one year from date of receipt. After reconstitution, at 4℃ for one month. It can also be aliquotted and stored frozen at -20℃ for six months. Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles.

Form: Lyophilized

Reactivity: Human,Mouse,Rat

Applications: WB

Application Details: Western blot, 0.1-0.5μg/ml, Human, Rat, Mouse

Gene Name: CHRNA1

Specificity: No cross reactivity with other proteins.

Background: CHRNA, also termed ACHRA, is mapped on 2q24-q32.This gene encodes the alpha subunit of the muscle acetylcholine receptor, which is the main target of pathogenic autoantibodies in autoimmune myasthenia gravis. The protein-coding sequence of the human alpha subu gene is divided into 9 exons that correspond to different structural and functional domains of the precursor molecule.

Immunogen: A synthetic peptide corresponding to a sequence at the N-terminus of human Nicotinic Acetylcholine Receptor alpha 1, identical to the related rat sequence, different from the related mouse sequence by one amino acid.

Clonality: Polyclonal

Contents: Each vial contains antibody formulated with stabilizing components, 0.9mg NaCl, 0.2mg Na2HPO4, 0.05mg Thimerosal, 0.05mg NaN3.
*This antibody is supplied in a stabilized formulation. Compatibility with conjugation reactions depends on the chemistry of the conjugation method used. For conjugation methods that are not compatible with the stabilizing components present in this formulation, a carrier-free antibody format is required.

Purification: Immunogen affinity purified.

Reconstitution: Add 0.2ml of distilled water will yield a concentration of 500ug/ml.
