Follistatin antibody

Catalog No. ABIN7504143

Product Details anti-Follistatin Antibody

Target: Follistatin (FST)

Reactivity: Human

Host: Mouse

Clonality: Monoclonal

Conjugate: This Follistatin antibody is un-conjugated

Application: Western Blotting (WB), ELISA, Immunocytochemistry (ICC)

Specificity: Follistatin is a single-chain glycosylated protein that inhibits follicle stimulating hormone (FSH) release. Alternative splicing of Follistatin mRNA yields two isoforms, FS315 and FS288. FS288 is the main cell-surface form and binds to surface heparin sulphate proteoglycans. FST/4282 recognizes recombinant human Follistatin 288, allowing for detection of FSH levels using various analysis methods. This antibody also works in a two site ELISA with FST/4281.

Cross-Reactivity (Details): Human.

Purification: 200ug/ml of Ab purified from Bioreactor Concentrate by Protein A/G.

Immunogen: Recognizes human Follistatin isoform FS288, raised against recombinant human FS288.

Isotype: IgG1
