Anti-Adiponectin

0.5mg/ml if reconstituted with 0.2ml sterile DI water. Adiponectin is a protein which in humans is encoded by the ADIPOQ gene. It is mapped to chromosome 16 in a region showing homology of synteny with human 3q27. By RNase protection and Western blot analysis, it has been showed that Adiponectin is expressed by differentiated adipocytes as a 30-kD protein. By sequence comparisons, it has been found that links between APM1 and TNF family ligands as well as to cytokines expressed by T cells. Adiponectin is a protein hormone that modulates a number of metabolic processes, including glucose regulation and fatty acid oxidation.
