Immunogen: Beta Galactosidase (E.coli)
Physical State: Lyophilized
Purity and Specificity: Beta-Galactosidase Antibody was prepared from monospecific antiserum by a delipidation and defibrination. Assay by immunoelectrophoresis resulted in a single precipitin arc against anti-rabbit serum, purified and partially purified Beta Galactosidase [E. coli]. Cross reactivity against Beta Galactosidase from other sources may occur but have not been specifically determined.
Background: Anti Beta Galactosidase Antibody recognizes the enzyme beta galactosidase, or β-galactosidase, that is a component of assays used frequently in genetics, molecular biology (see X-gal) for a blue white screen, and other life sciences. IPTG induces production of β-galactosidase by binding and inhibiting the lac repressor. Since it is highly expressed and accumulated in lysosomes in senescent cells, it is used as a senescence biomarker both in vivo and in vitro in qualitative and quantitative assays, despite its limitations. Anti-beta Galactosidase Antibody is ideal for investigators involved in enzyme research.
Low Endotoxin: No
