NEFH antibody

Catalog No. ABIN361350

Product Details anti-NEFH Antibody

Target: NEFH (Neurofilament, Heavy Polypeptide (NEFH))

Reactivity: Cow

Host: Mouse

Clonality: Monoclonal

Conjugate: This NEFH antibody is un-conjugated

Application: Western Blotting (WB), Immunofluorescence (IF)

Specificity: Specific for the ~200k Neurofilament H protein. It recognizes phosphorylated NF-H KSP (lysine-serine-proline) type sequences. In some species there is some cross-reactivity with the related phosphorylated KSP sequences found in the related neurofilament subunit NF-M. It recognizes neurofilaments in frozen sections in tissue culture and in formalin fixed sections.

Cross-Reactivity: Chicken, Mammalian

Purification: Protein G purified culture supernatant

Immunogen: Purified bovine NF-H

Clone: NAP4

Isotype: IgG1

Background: Neurofilaments are the 10nm or intermediate filament proteins found specifically in neurons, and are composed predominantly of three major proteins called NF-L, NF-M and NF-H (1). NF-H is the neurofilament high or heavy molecular weight polypeptide and runs on SDS-PAGE gels at 200-220 kDa, with some variability across species boundaries. Antibodies to NF-H are useful for identifying neuronal cells and their processes in tissue sections and in tissue culture. NF-H antibodies can also be useful to visualize neurofilament accumulations seen in many neurological diseases, such as Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (Lou Gehrig's disease) (2) and Alzheimer's disease (3).
