Cell Biology and Cellular Response antibody; Metabolism antibody; Neuroscience antibody; Signaling Transduction antibody

Overview

Product Description Mouse Monoclonal antibody [C-PEP-01] recognizes Proinsulin (C-peptide)
Tested Reactivity Hu
Tested Application ELISA, ICC/IF, IHC-P, RIA
Specificity The clone C-PEP-01 reacts specifically with C-peptide, a part of the Proinsulin molecule. Proinsulin consists of the three parts: C-peptide and two long strands of amino acids (alpha and beta chains; later become linked together to form the Insulin molecule).
No cross-reactivity with Insulin or other peptide hormones or proteins was observed.
Host Mouse
Clonality Monoclonal
Clone C-PEP-01
Isotype IgG1
Target Name Proinsulin (C-peptide)
Antigen Species Human
Immunogen Human C-peptide conjugated to bovine serum albumin.
Conjugation Un-conjugated
Alternate Names IDDM; IDDM2; IDDM1; ILPR; MODY10; Insulin; IRDN

GeneID: 3630 Human INS

Swiss-port # P01308 Human Insulin

Gene Symbol INS
Gene Full Name insulin
Background From every molecule of Proinsulin, one molecule of Insulin plus one molecule of C-peptide are produced. C-peptide is released into the blood stream in equal amounts to Insulin.
Function Insulin decreases blood glucose concentration. It increases cell permeability to monosaccharides, amino acids and fatty acids. It accelerates glycolysis, the pentose phosphate cycle, and glycogen synthesis in liver. [UniProt]
Research Area Cell Biology and Cellular Response antibody; Metabolism antibody; Neuroscience antibody; Signaling Transduction antibody
Calculated MW 12 kDa
