Alpha Diagnostic International, Inc. Mouse Glucose Transp. 1 (Glut-1) Control/blocking peptide # 1 GT11-P

Mouse Glucose Transp. 1 (Glut-1) Control/blocking peptide # 1 General Information Glut-1 mediates glucose transport into red cells, and throughout the blood brain barrier, and supply glucose to most cells. FUNCTION: Facilitative glucose transporter. This isoform may be responsible for constitutive or basal glucose uptake. Has a very 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 Mouse Form Antigen/blocking Peptide Antigen 12-aa peptide Mouse GT11; (Gene Accession #P17809) Designation (GT11-P, control peptide)/blocking peptide) conjugated to KLH; Epitope location~ C-terminal, Cytoplasmic domain SpCrossreactivity Mouse GT11-P peptide sequence is 100% conserved in rat, human, rabbit, bovine, and pig Glut-1 and 90% in chicken. It has no significant sequence homology with other gluts. Antibody cross-reactivity in various species is not known. Control peptide, because of its low mol. Wt (<3 kDa), is not suitable for Western. It should be used for ELISA or antibody blocking experiments (use 5-10 ug control peptide per 1 ug of aff pure IgG or 1 ul antiserum) to confirm antibody specificity For research use only, not for diagnostic or therapeutic use.
