Cytochrome c Rabbit Polyclonal Antibody

Specifications

Product Data
Applications	ELISA, ID, IF, IP, R, WB
Recommended Dilution	This product is intended for use in precipitating and non-precipitating antibody-binding assays (such as e.g., ELISA and Western blotting and Immunofluorescence or Histochemical techniques), to prepare an insoluble immuno-affinity adsorbent, for labelling with a marker of the customer’s own choice. Working dilutions in non-precipitating antibody-binding techniques: 1/100-1/4,000.
Reactivities	Equine
Host	Rabbit
Isotype	IgG
Clonality	Polyclonal
Immunogen	Cytochrome c is isolated and purified from Horse heart. Freund’s complete adjuvant is used in the first step of the immunization procedure.
Specificity	The reagents were evaluated for potency, purity and specificity using most or all of the following techniques: Immunoelectrophoresis, Cross-Immunoelectrophoresis, single Radial Immunodiffusion (Ouchterlony), block titration, ELISA, Immunoblotting and Enzyme Inhibition. Cross-reactivities against enzymes of other sources may occur but have not been determined.
Formulation	PBS, pH 7.2 without preservatives and foreign proteins State: Azide Free State: Lyophilized IgG fraction
Reconstitution Method	Restore by adding 1.0 ml of sterile distilled water
Concentration	lot specific
Purification	Ammonium Sulphate Precipitation and Ion Exchange Chromatography
Conjugation	Unconjugated
Storage	Store the antibody lyophilized at 2-8°C and reconstituted at 2-8°C for one week or (in aliquots) at -20°C for longer. If a slight precipitation occurs upon storage, this should be removed by centrifugation.
Stability	Shelf life: one year from despatch
Database Link	UniProt ID P00004
Background	Cytochrome c is an electron transporting protein that resides within the intermembrane space of the mitochondria, where it plays a critical role in the process of oxidative phosphorylation and production of cellular ATP. An increasing amount of interest has been directed toward the role which cytocrome c has been demonstrated to play in apoptotic processes. Following exposure to apoptotic stimuli, cytochrome c is rapidly released from the mitochondria into the cytosol, an event which may be required for the completion of apoptosis in some systems. Cytosolic cytochrome c functions in the activation of caspase-3, and ICE family molecule that is a key effector of apoptosis.
Synonyms	CYCS, CYC
