Alpha Diagnostic International, Inc. Rat Uncoupling Protein 3 (UCP3) Control/blocking peptide #3 UCP33-P

Rat Uncoupling Protein 3 (UCP3) Control/blocking peptide #3 General Information Human UCP3 long form (UCP3L; gene accession # P55916) is a 312 aa mitochondrial uncoupling protein (1, 2). It is only 57% and 73% homologous with human UCP1 and UCP2 respectively. Like other UCPs, UCP3 is predicted to contain 6 transmembrane domains. T 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 18-aa peptide from rat UCP3 (1); Designation (UCP33-P, control peptide/blocking peptide) conjugated to KLH; ~ between the 3rd and 4th TM domain SpCrossreactivity The rat UCP33-P peptide sequences is 100% conserved in mouse, 94% in hamster, 66% in canine, 61% in bovine, 63% in monkey, and 38% in human UCP3. UCP33-P has no significant homology with UCP1-2 or UCP4-5. Antibody cross-reactivity in various species has not been studied For research use only, not for diagnostic or therapeutic use.
