Alpha Diagnostic International, Inc. Rat Cannabinoid receptor (CB1) Control/blocking peptide # 2 CB12-P

Rat Cannabinoid receptor (CB1) Control/blocking peptide # 2 General Information Cannabinoids, a group of C21 compounds present in Cannabis sativa L., their carboxylic acids, analogs, and transformation products, are the active ingredients found in hashish and marihuana. (-)-trans-D9-tetrahy drocannabinol (D9-THC) is the major psychop SugApplications Control or blocking peptides are recommended for ELISA plate coating for direct ELISA testing of antibodies or competitive ELISA, and antibody blocking or neutralization. SpeciesReactivity Rat Form Antigen/blocking Peptide Antigen 20-aa peptide of rat CB-1 (1) ; Designated (CB12-P or control peptide) conjugated to KLH. Epitope location ~ C-terminal SpCrossreactivity The rat CB12-P peptide sequence is 100% conserved in mouse, 94% in monkey and human, 88% in zebra finch,, 75% in cat and newt (salamander), and 73% in puffer fish CB1. No significant sequence homology exists with CB2 or other receptors. Antibody crossreactivity in various species is not established For research use only, not for diagnostic or therapeutic use.
