Description
Data Sheet
| Applications | NANS antibody has been tested by ELISA, Western blot analysis to assure specificity and reactivity. Since application varies, however, each investigation should be titrated by the reagent to obtain optimal results. Recommended dilution range for Western blot analysis is 1:1,000. |
| Clone | PAT1G6AT. |
| Ig Subclass | Mouse IgG1 heavy chain and k light chain. |
| Immunogen | Anti-human NANS mAb, is derived from hybridization of mouse FO myeloma cells with spleen cells from BALB/c mice immunized with recombinant human NANS amino acids 1-359 purified from E. coli. |
| Protein Background | NANS is a 359 amino acid protein that contains one AFP (antifreeze proteins)-like domain and functions in the biosynthesis of sialic acids. The ubiquitously expressed NANS enzymatically catalyzes the H2O-dependent formation of N-acetylneuraminic acid (Neu5Ac) and 2-keto-3-deoxy-D-glycero-D-galacto-nononic acid (KDN), both of which are sialic acids. NANS uses N-acetylmannosamine 6-phosphate as a substrate for Neu5Ac synthesis and mannose 6-phosphate as a substrate for KDN synthesis. |
| Protein formulation | 1mg/ml containing PBS, pH-7.4, & 0.1% Sodium Azide. |
| Purification Method | NANS antibody was purified from mouse ascitic fluids by protein-G affinity chromatography. |
| Stability / Shelf Life | 12 months at -20°C. 1 month at 4°C. |
| Storage Procedures | For periods up to 1 month store at 4°C, for longer periods of time, store at -20°C. Prevent freeze thaw cycles. |
| Synonyms | Sialic acid synthase, N-acetylneuraminate synthase, N-acetylneuraminate-9-phosphate synthase, N-acetylneuraminic acid phosphate synthase, N-acetylneuraminic acid synthase, NANS, SAS. |
| Type | Mouse Anti Human Monoclonal. |
