Product Data

• Applications: ELISA
• Recommended Dilution: This antibody has been tested and validated in ELISA against Neuropeptide Y. Other applications like immunohistochemistry (IHC), FACS or Western Blot may work as well. Optimal dilutions should be determined by the end user.
• Reactivities: Human, Mouse, Rat
• Host: Rabbit
• Clonality: Polyclonal
• Immunogen: Synthetic peptide H-Tyr-Pro-Ser-Lys-Pro-Asp-Asn-Pro-Gly-Glu-Asp-Ala- Pro-Ala-Glu-Asp-Met-Ala-Arg-Tyr-Tyr-Ser-Ala-Leu-Arg-His-Tyr-Ile-Asn- Leu-Ile-Thr-Arg-Gln-Arg-Tyr-NH2 coupled to carrier protein.
• Formulation: Each vial contains enough antiserum for 500 RIA tubes. The powder should be rehydrated with 50ml RIA buffer. Upon reconstitution to 50ml total volume, the solution contains 0.1M sodium phosphate buffer (pH 7.4), 0.05M NaCl, 0.1% BSA, 0.01% NaN3, and 0.1% Triton X-100. Store at 4°C. This should ensure antibody stability for approximately one month.

• Background: Neuropeptide Y (NPY) is a 36-amino acid neuropeptide known to be involved in several physiological and homeostatic processes in the both central and peripheral nervous system. It is the most abundant peptide present in the mammalian central nervous system and it is synthesized in GABAergic neurons, acting as neurotransmitter during cellular communication. This antibody was generated by immunization of rabbits with Neuropeptide Y coupled to a carrier protein.
• Synonyms: OTTHUMP00000201946; OTTHUMP00000201947; PYY4
