Rabbit Anti-Follicle-stimulating hormone beta, ID (FSHb, FSHB, Follitropin subunit beta, Follitropin beta chain) (APC)
FSHb, FSHB, Follitropin subunit beta, Follitropin beta chain
The pituitary glycoprotein hormone family includes follicle-stimulating hormone, luteinizing hormone, chorionic gonadotropin, and thyroid-stimulating hormone. All of these glycoproteins consist of an identical alpha subunit and a hormone-specific beta subunit. This gene encodes the beta subunit of follicle-stimulating hormone. In conjunction with luteinizing hormone, follicle-stimulating hormone induces egg and sperm production. Alternative splicing results in two transcript variants encoding the same protein.
Applications
Suitable for use in Western Blot and FLISA. Other potential application, though not tested is Direct Flow Cytometry. Other applications have not been tested.
Recommended Dilutions
Optimal dilutions to be determined by the researcher.
