Extra Details:
The eighth component of complement (C8) consists of 3 nonidentical subunits arranged asymmetrically as a disulfide-linked alpha-gamma dimer and a noncovalently associated beta chain. Genetic studies of C8 polymorphisms established that alpha-gamma and beta are encoded at different loci. Implicit in this finding was the existence of 2 different genes and the likelihood that alpha-gamma is synthesized as a single-chain precursor. The C8G belong to the lipocalin superfamily, a group of distantly related and similarly folded proteins that are able to carry small lipophilic molecules such as retinol, odorants, and steroids. The lipocalin superfamily has a very ancient origin since lipocalins are found in arthropods as well as in vertebrates. Applications: Suitable for use in ELISA, Western Blot, Immunohistochemistry, Immunocytochemistry. Other applications not tested. Recommended Dilution: ELISA: 1:100-5000 Western Blot: 1:50-400 Immunohistochemistry (frozen): 1:50-500 Immunohistochemistry (paraffin): 1:10-100 Immunocytochemistry: 1:50-500 Optimal dilutions to be determined by the researcher.
