Alpha Diagnostic International, Inc. Human Uncoupling Protein 3 (UCP3) Control/blocking peptide #4 UCP34-P

Human Uncoupling Protein 3 (UCP3) Control/blocking peptide #4 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 Human Form Antigen/blocking Peptide Antigen 18-aa peptide from Human UCP3 (1); Designation (UCP34-P, control peptide) epitope location ~ ~CT, between the 3rd and 4th TM domain SpCrossreactivity The Human UCP34-P peptide sequences is 100% conserved in long and short form of human UCP3, 88% in monkey, 83% in pig, 61% in bovine, and only and 38% in mouse/rat UCP3. UCP34-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.
