Key features and details | |
Cat. No. | MABL-1908 |
Name | Anti-Human Muscle Acetylcholine Receptor mAbs |
Clone No. | AFD- mAb 192 |
From | Recombinant Antibody |
Isotype | Engineer antibody |
Application | Blocking, WB, ELISA |
Species Reactivity | Rat, Human, Mouse |
Basic Information | |
Specificity | The antibody binds to human muscle AChR with a Kd of 10 pM, to mouse muscle AChR with a Kd of 50 pM, and to rat muscle AChR with a Kd of 646 nM. |
Alternative Name | AChR |
UniProt | P02708 (For the alpha-subunit) |
Immunogen | Human muscle AChR. |
Application Notes | This antibody binds to the human muscle Acetylcholine receptor, which is a ligand- gated ion channel, transducing an action potential into the muscle cells. The antibody binds to the main immunogenic region (MIR) and prevents ligand-binding. |
