Alpha Diagnostic International, Inc. Mouse Pentraxin 3 (PTX3/TSG-14) Control/blocking peptide #1 PTX31-P

Mouse Pentraxin 3 (PTX3/TSG-14) Control/blocking peptide #1 General Information PTX3 or TSG14 or long pentraxin (human mature chain 364 aa, chromosome 3q25; ~43 kda ) is structurally related but different form classic pentraxins. PTX3 was clones as an IL-1 inducible gene in endothelial cells, and as TNF-inducible gene in fibroblasts 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 16-aa peptide from Mouse PTX3 (1); Designation (PTX31-P, control peptide) conjugated to KLH, epitope location ~ ~N-terminus SpCrossreactivity The Mouse PTX31-P control peptide is 93% homologous to human, and 87% to bovine PTX3 or Tumor necrosis factor-inducible protein-14, TSG-14). Antibody cross-reactivity in various species has not been studied For research use only, not for diagnostic or therapeutic use.
