Anti-ASGR1, NT (ASGR1, CLEC4H1, Asialoglycoprotein receptor 1, C-type lectin domain family 4 member

Partially deglycosylated plasma glycoproteins and immunoglobulin IgA2 allotypes are efficiently and specifically removed from circulation by a receptor-mediated process. The asialoglycoprotein receptor binds to desialylated (galactosyl-terminal) glycoproteins. It transports these glycoproteins via a series of membrane vesicles and tubules to an acidic-sorting organelle where the receptor and ligand dissociate. Then the receptor is recycled back to the cell surface and the ligand is transported to the lysosomes for degradation. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding distinct isoforms have been identified. Applications: Suitable for use in Western Blot and ELISA. Other applications not tested. Recommended Dilutions: Western Blot: 1:1000, Optimal dilutions to be determined by the researcher. Storage and Stability: May be stored at 4°C for short-term only. Aliquot to avoid repeated freezing and thawing. Store at -20°C. Aliquots are stable for 12 months after receipt. For maximum recovery of product, centrifuge the original vial after thawing and prior to removing the cap.
