This antibody is purified through a protein A column, followed by peptide affinity purification.
Immunogen
This ZP1 antibody is generated from rabbits immunized with a KLH conjugated synthetic peptide between 536-565 amino acids from the C-terminal region of human ZP1.
zona pellucida glycoprotein 1 (sperm receptor) antibody, zona pellucida glycoprotein 1 antibody, ZP1 antibody, Zp1 antibody
Background
The mammalian zona pellucida, which mediates species-specific sperm binding, induction of the acrosome reaction and prevents post-fertilization polyspermy, is composed of three to four glycoproteins, ZP1, ZP2, ZP3, and ZP4. ZP1 ensures the structural integrity of the zona pellucida.
