Product Summary

Cat. No.

GAU 017-01

Specificity

Recognizes an epitope that is present on human C3, C3a and C3a (desArg). Does not cross-react with C4a or C5a.

Immunogen

Human C3a

Host

Mouse

Positive Species Reactivity

Human

Negative Species Reactivity

Not determined

Isotype

IgG1/k

Gene ID

718

Clone Number

D17/1

Epitope Specificity

GAU 017-01 recognizes different epitopes on the 9 kDa C3a than GAU 013-16. No reaction is seen with a synthetic octapeptide representing the C3a C-terminal.

Unit Size

400 µL: Cat. No. GAU 017-01-04 1 mL: Cat. No. GAU 017-01-1 1 mg/mL +/- 15%. See Certificate of Analysis for details.

Purification

Protein A/G purified (from culture supernatant)

Form

Liquid

Solvent

0.01 M phosphate buffer, pH 7.4, containing 0.5 M NaCl and 15 mM sodium azide

Conjugation

Unconjugated BSA free

Storage

4-8ºC without exposure to light. No precautions necessary during handling.

Target

Complement C3a is an anaphylatoxin of 77 amino acid residues released by the action of the C3 convertases on the N-terminal of the alpha chain of C3. It is rapidly inactivated by serum carboxypeptidase N which removes the C-terminal arginine residue generating C3a (desArg).

Application

ELISA: GAU 017-01 can be used as a biotinylated detection antibody in sandwich ELISA with GAU 013-16 capture antibody (1-5). Does not inhibit the biological activity of C3a. (1)

WB: GAU 017-01 can be used in Western blotting. (1, 4, 5)
