Western Blotting (WB), ELISA, Immunofluorescence (IF)
Specificity
At least three isoforms are known to exist, this antibody will detect all three isoforms. Despite its predicted molecular weight, LNPEP often migrates at 165kD in SDS-PAGE.
Purification
LNPEP Antibody is affinity chromatography purified via peptide column.
Immunogen
LNPEP antibody was raised against a 15 amino acid synthetic peptide near the carboxy terminus of human LNPEP. The immunogen is located within amino acids 900 - 950 of LNPEP.

LNPEP Antibody: LNPEP, also known as insulin-responsive aminopeptidase (IRAP), was initially identified as an abundant protein that is associated with specialized endosomes termed GLUT4 storage vesicles (GSVs) in adipocytes. The luminal domain of LNPEP contains an aminopeptidase activity that is involved in peptide hormone processing and antigenic peptide processing. LNPEP is also a key regulator of GLUT4 trafficking by controlling the sorting of GLUT4 from endosomes to the GSVs.
