Goat Anti-ALMS1 (Alstrom Syndrome Protein 1, KIAA0328)

This protein contains a large tandem-repeat domain that contains no cysteine residues. Mutations in this gene have been associated with Alstrom syndrome. The encoded protein may play a role in hearing, sight, obesity, and liver function. Alternative splice variants have been described but their full length sequences have not been determined.

Applications
Suitable for use in ELISA and Immunohistochemistry. Other applications not tested.
Recommended Dilution
ELISA: 1:32,000 Immunohistochemistry (Paraffin): 1-3ug/ml Optimal dilutions to be determined by the researcher.
Storage and Stability
May be stored at 4°C for short-term only. Aliquot to avoid repeated freezing and thawing. Store at -20°C. Aliquots are stable for at least 12 months. For maximum recovery of product, centrifuge the original vial after thawing and prior to removing the cap.
Immunogen
Synthetic peptide corresponding to C-RVTNQLLGRKVPWD, from human ALMS1, at C-terminal (NP_055935.4).
Form
Supplied as a liquid in Tris saline, 0.02% sodium azide, pH 7.3, 0.5% BSA.
Purity
Purified by immunoaffinity chromatography.
Specificity
Recognizes human ALMS1. Species sequence homology: Bovine, canine, mouse and rat.

Intended for research use only. Not for use in human, therapeutic, or diagnostic applications.
