Glutathione S-Transferase (GST) (APC)

Glutathione S-transferases (GSTs) are a family of enzymes that play an important role in detoxification by catalyzing the conjugation of many hydrophobic and electrophilic compounds with reduced glutathione. Based on their biochemical, immunologic, and structural properties, the soluble GSTs are categorized into 4 main classes: alpha, mu, pi, and theta. The glutathione S-transferase pi gene (GSTP1) is a polymorphic gene encoding active, functionally different GSTP1 variant proteins that are thought to function in xenobiotic metabolism and play a role in susceptibility to cancer, and other diseases.

Applications
Suitable for use in Western Blot and Immunoprecipitation. Other applications have not been tested.
Recommended Dilutions
Western Blot: detects 100ng of a GST fusion protein. Immunoprecipitation: immunoprecipitates GST fusion protein. Optimal dilutions to be determined by the researcher.
Storage and Stability
Store product at 4°C in the dark. DO NOT FREEZE! Stable at 4°C for 12 months after receipt as an undiluted liquid. Dilute required amount only prior to immediate use. Further dilutions can be made in assay buffer. Caution: APC conjugates are sensitive to light. For maximum recovery of product, centrifuge the original vial prior to removing the cap. 
Note: Applications are based on unconjugated antibody.

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