Antigen Source

KLH conjugated synthetic peptide derived from human PIGA

Cross reactive species

Human (Homo sapiens), Mouse (Mus musculus), Rat (Rattus norvegicus)

Storage

Water buffered solution containing 100ug/ml BSA, 50% glycerol and 0.09% sodium azide. Store at 4°C for 12 months.

Description

This antibody needs to be stored at + 4°C in a fridge short term in a concentrated dilution. Freeze thaw will destroy a percentage in every cycle and should be avoided.

About

Polyclonals can be used for Western blot, immunohistochemistry on frozen slices or parrafin fixed tissues. The advantage is that there are more epitopes available in a polyclonal antiserum to detect the proteins than in monoclonal sera.

Cross Reactive Species details

No significant cross reactivity has been observed for this antibody for the tested species. However, note that due to limited knowledge it is impossible to predict with 100% guarantee that the antibody does not corss react with any other species.

Synonyms

GlcNAc PI synthesis protein; GlcNAc-PI synthesis protein; GPI3; Phosphatidylinositol glycan anchor biosynthesis class A; phosphatidylinositol glycan anchor biosynthesis, class A paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria; Phosphatidylinositol N-acetylglucosaminyltransferase subunit A; PIG A; PIG-A; PIGA_HUMAN; Phosphatidylinositol-glycan biosynthesis class A protein; PIG-A.

Advisory

Avoid freeze/thaw cycles as they may denaturate the polypeptide chains of the antibody, thus reducing its reactivity, specificity and sensitivity. For antibodies that are in liquid form or reconstituted lyophilized antibodies small amounts could become entrapped on the seal or the walls of the tube. Prior to use briefly centrifuge the vial to gather all the solution on the bottom.

Background information

PIGA belongs to the glycosyltransferase 1 family and is necessary for the synthesis of N-acetylglucosaminyl-phosphatidylinositol, the very early intermediate in GPI-anchor biosynthesis. Defects in PIGA are the cause of paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria (PNH) which is an acquired hemolytic blood disorder characterized by chronic hemolysis with hemoglobinuria, increased tendency to venous thrombosis, and variable degrees of bone marrow failure.
