Fitzgerald Industries International, Inc. Crystallin Alpha B Blocking Peptide 33R-4750

Description
A synthetic peptide for use as a blocking control in assays to test for specificity of CRYAB antibody, catalog no. 70R-1016 Background: Alpha crystallins are composed of: alpha-A and alpha-B, for acidic and basic, respectively. They act as molecular chaperones although they do not renature proteins and release them in the fashion of a true chaperone; instead they hold them in large soluble aggregates. Post-translational modifications decrease the ability to chaperone. Two additional functions of alpha crystallins are an autokinase activity and participation in the intracellular architecture. Alpha-A and alpha-B are differentially expressed; alpha-A is preferentially restricted to the lens and alpha-B is expressed widely in many tissues and organs. Elevated expression of alpha-B crystallin occurs in many neurological diseases; a missense mutation cosegregated in a family with a desmin-related myopathy.
