Cat. No. | MABL-219 |
Name | Anti-Amyloid Beta mAbs |
Clone No. | AFD-21F12 |
From | Recombinant Antibody |
Isotype | Engineer antibody |
Application | IP, WB, ELISA, IHC |
Species Reactivity | Human |
Basic Information | |
Specificity | This antibody recognizes amino acids 33-42 of amyloid beta. |
Alternative Name | Abeta; A-beta; Aβ; Aβ42; Alzheimer disease amyloid protein; S-APP-beta |
UniProt | P05067 |
Immunogen | The original antibody was generated by immunizing A/J mice with a synthetic peptide (NH2- CYS-NH-CH2-(CH2)5-CO-GLMVGGVVIA-COOH) as an immunogen. |
Application Notes | This antibody has very high specificity for Aβ1–42 over Aβ1–40. This antibody is capable of immunoprecipitating Aβ peptides ending at aa position 42 and also p3 peptides (PMID: 8917563). This antibody is also recomended for detection of amyloid beta using sandwich ELISA (PMID: 9037091, 19204155). This antibody was also used in the quantification of the proportion of full-length Aβ using western blotting (PMID: 12787077). This antibody has also been used for the identification of Aβ42 plaques on paraffin frontal sections(PMID: 15215183, 19660650). This antibody is unable to bind plaques in unfixed brain sections. This antibody is also not capable of clearing plaque after in vivo administration (PMID: 10932230). |
