Anti-Chromogranin A, clone AOIC-3

Antibody in PBS with 0.02% sodium azide, 50% glycerol and 0.4-0.5mg/ml BSA. The protein encoded by the CHGA gene is a member of the chromogranin/secretogranin family of neuroendocrine secretory proteins. It is found in secretory vesicles of neurons and endocrine cells. This gene product is a precursor to three biologically active peptides, vasostatin, pancreastatin, and parastatin. These peptides act as autocrine or paracrine negative modulators of the neuroendocrine system. [RefSeq] Protein function: [Pancreastatin]: Strongly inhibits glucose induced insulin release from the pancreas. [The UniProt Consortium]
