Anti-Apolipoprotein D (Apo-D, ApoD)

Apolipoprotein D(Apo-D) is a protein that in humans, encoded by the APOD gene. Being a member of the alpha (2 mu)-microglobulin superfamily of carrier proteins, Apo-D is also known as lipocalin.The gene has been localized to the p14.2----qter region of human chromosome 3. It is a glycoprotein of estimated molecular weight 33,000 Da. The Apo-D encoded a protein of 169 amino acid residue.It has been detected in human liver, intestine, pancreas, kidney, placenta, adrenal, spleen, and fetal brain tissue. For its features, Apo-D has been a biomarker of androgen insensitivity syndrome (AIS). UniProt Number: P05090, Gene ID: APOD, Applications: Suitable for use in Western Blot. Recommended Dilution: Optimal dilutions to be determined by the researcher. Storage and Handling: Store at -20?C for one year. After reconstitution, store at 4?C for one month. Can also be aliquoted and stored frozen at -20?C for long term., Avoid repeated freezing and thawing.
