Target: GDNF.
Conjugate: FITC.
Product Type: Polyclonal.
Immunogen: Synthetic peptide from the mid-protein of Human GDNF.
Swiss-Prot: P39905.
Purification: Peptide Affinity Purified.
Storage Buffer: PBS, 50% glycerol, 0.09% sodium azide.
Concentration: 1 mg/ml.
Specificity: Detects ~24 kDa.
Cellular Localization: Secreted .
Tissue Specificity: In the brain, predominantly expressed in the striatum with highest levels in the caudate and lowest in the putamen. Isoform 2 is absent from most tissues except for low levels in intestine and kidney. Highest expression of isoform 3 is found in pancreatic islets. Isoform 5 is expressed at very low levels in putamen, nucleus accumbens, prefrontal cortex, amygdala, hypothalamus and intestine. Isoform 3 is up-regulated in the middle temporal gyrus of Alzheimer disease patients while isoform 2 shows no change.
Field of Use: Not for use in humans. Not for use in diagnostics or therapeutics. For in vitro research use only.
