SKU:: 362188
Purity:: Purified by Protein A and peptide affinity chromatography.
Storage Conditions:: -20°C
Supplier:: United States Biological
Host:: Rabbit
Immunogen:: Recombinant protein corresponding to Pro21-Ser295 of human ARSA, expressed in E. coli.
Format:: Supplied as a liquid in 0.01M PBS, pH7.4, 0.05% Proclin-300, 50% glycerol.
Extra Details:: Arylsulfatase A hydrolyzes cerebroside sulfate to cerebroside and sulfate. Defects in this gene lead to metachromatic leucodystrophy (MLD), a progressive demyelination disease which results in a variety of neurological symptoms and ultimately death. Multiple alternatively spliced transcript variants, one of which encodes a distinct protein, have been described for this gene The predicted amino acid sequence comprised 507 residues, including a putative signal peptide of 18 residues. The sequence contains 3 potential N-glycosylation sites. The cDNA hybridized to 2.0- and 3.9-kb species in RNA from human fibroblasts and human liver. Applications: Suitable for use in Western Blot and Immunohistochemistry. Other applications not tested. Recommended Dilution: 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 12 months after receipt. For maximum recovery of product, centrifuge the original vial after thawing and prior to removing the cap.
