CPA1 Polyclonal Antibody

This gene encodes a member of the carboxypeptidase A family of zinc metalloproteases. This enzyme is produced in the pancreas and preferentially cleaves C-terminal branched-chain and aromatic amino acids from dietary proteins. This gene and several family members are present in a gene cluster on chromosome 7. Mutations in this gene may be linked to chronic pancreatitis, while elevated protein levels may be associated with pancreatic cancer.

The CPA1 Polyclonal Antibody is a highly specific and sensitive immunological reagent designed for the detection and quantification of CPA1 protein in various biological samples. This antibody is produced by immunizing rabbits with a synthetic peptide corresponding to the C-terminal region of human CPA1 protein. The resulting polyclonal antibody exhibits high affinity and specificity towards CPA1 protein, making it an ideal tool for various applications in research and diagnostics.

The CPA1 Polyclonal Antibody is purified using a combination of protein A and peptide affinity chromatography, ensuring high purity and minimal cross-reactivity with other proteins. This antibody is suitable for use in various immunoassays, including Western blotting, ELISA, immunohistochemistry, and flow cytometry. It has been validated for use in human, mouse, and rat samples, making it a versatile tool for researchers working with different animal models.

The CPA1 Polyclonal Antibody is supplied as a liquid formulation in phosphate-buffered saline (PBS) with 0.02% sodium azide as a preservative. It is available in different sizes to meet the needs of various applications. This antibody is manufactured under strict quality control standards to ensure consistent performance and reproducibility. It is an essential tool for researchers studying the role of CPA1 protein in various physiological and pathological processes, including pancreatitis, diabetes, and cancer.
