Rabbit Anti-PGDS (HPGDS, Hematopoietic Prostaglandin D Synthase, H-PGDS, GST Class-sigma, Glutathione S-transferase, Glutathione-dependent PGD Synthase, Glutathione-requiring Prostaglandin D Synthase, Prostaglandin-H2 D-isomerase, GSTS, PTGDS2) (HRP)
HPGDS, also known as GSTS, is a sigma class glutathione-S-transferase family member. The enzyme catalyzes the conversion of PGH2 to PGD2 and plays a role in the production of prostanoids in the immune system and mast cells. The presence of this enzyme can be used to identify the differentiation stage of human megakaryocytes.
Applications

Storage and Stability
Store product at 4°C if to be used immediately within two weeks. For long-term storage, aliquot to avoid repeated freezing and thawing and store at -20°C. Aliquots are stable at -20°C for 12 months after receipt. Dilute required amount only prior to immediate use. Further dilutions can be made in assay buffer. Note: Sodium azide is a potent inhibitor of peroxidase and should not be added to HRP conjugates. For maximum recovery of product, centrifuge the original vial after thawing and prior to removing the cap.
Note: Applications are based on unconjugated antibody.
