From
Recombinant Antibody
Specificity
This antibody binds bovine RNase A. RNase A is an endonuclease enzyme that catalyzes the cleavage of RNA on the 3' side of pyrimidine nucleotides. It acts on single-stranded and double-stranded RNA.
Alternative Names
Ribonuclease pancreatic; RNASE1; RNase 1; RNaseA; RNS1 RN05
UniProt
P61823
Immunogen
The original antibody was generated by immunizing a dromedary (Camelus dromedarius) with bovine RNase A. The affinity matured version of this antibody was generated using synthetic combinatorial libraries.
Application Notes
This antibody binds bovine RNase with an affinity in the picomolar range. This affinity matured version of VHH antibody cAb-RN05 binds bovine RNase with an affinity of Kd= 180 pM (PMID: 17888451). 5′–3′ cUMP that binds into the active site of RNase A does not compete with cAb-RN05 for binding to RNase A in an ELISA (PMID: 10196124).
