Concentration: | 0.1 mg/ml |
Storage buffer: | The reagent is provided in stabilizing phosphate buffered saline (PBS) solution containing 15mM sodium azide. |
Storage / stability: | Store in the dark at 2-8°C. Do not freeze. Avoid prolonged exposure to light. Do not use after expiration date stamped on vial label. |
Background: | LARGE1 serves as a glycosyltransferase which participates in glycosylation of the muscle membrane protein alpha-dystroglycan. Mutations of LARGE1 lead to hypoglycosylation of alpha-dystroglycan and cause congenital muscular dystrophy (MDC1D) associated with severe mental retardation. Altered alpha-dystroglycan glycosylation may also play a role in cancer, as hypoglycosylation of the protein and loss of laminin binding have been demonstrated in invasive carcinoma cells. |
Usage: | The reagent is designed for Flow Cytometry analysis. |
Preparation: | The purified antibody is conjugated with R-Phycoerythrin (PE) under optimum conditions. The conjugate was purified by size-exclusion chromatography. |
