Anti Beta Galactosidase Antibody recognizes the enzyme beta galactosidase, or β-galactosidase, that is a component of assays used frequently in genetics, molecular biology (see X-gal) for a blue white screen, and other life sciences. IPTG induces production of β-galactosidase by binding and inhibiting the lac repressor. Since it is highly expressed and accumulated in lysosomes in senescent cells, it is used as a senescence biomarker both in vivo and in vitro in qualitative and quantitative assays, despite its limitations. Anti-beta Galactosidase Antibody is ideal for investigators involved in enzyme research. Synonyms: beta-Galactosidase, beta-galactosidase, beta-gal
