Host
Mouse
Reactivity
Human, Pig, Rat
Clonality
Monoclonal
Isotype
IgG1
Clone Number
GA-5
Specificity
The antibody GA-5 reacts with GFAP, the principal marker of astroglial cells in the central nervous system, which is specifically expressed in satellite cells in peripheral ganglia and in non myelinating Schwann cells in peripheral nerves. The GFAP protein runs on gels at ~55 kD protein, usually associated with lower Mw bands which are thought to be proteolytic fragments and alternate transcripts from the single gene.

Product Notes
The GFAP gfap (Catalog #AAA51940) is an Antibody produced from Mouse and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The Mouse Monoclonal [clone GA-5] (IgG1) to Human GFAP reacts with Human, Pig, Rat and may cross-react with other species as described in the data sheet. AAA Biotech's GFAP can be used in a range of immunoassay formats including, but not limited to, IP (Immunoprecipitation), WB (Western Blot), ICC (Immunocytochemistry), IHC (Immunohistochemistry). Researchers should empirically determine the suitability of the GFAP gfap for an application not listed in the data sheet. Researchers commonly develop new applications and it is an integral, important part of the investigative research process. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "GFAP, Monoclonal Antibody" to become dispersed throughout the inside of the vial, particularly around the seal of said vial, during shipment and storage. We always suggest centrifuging these vials to consolidate all of the liquid away from the lid and to the bottom of the vial prior to opening. Please be advised that certain products may require dry ice for shipping and that, if this is the case, an additional dry ice fee may also be required.Precautions
