Description: Rabbit IgG polyclonal antibody for Involucrin(IVL) detection. Tested with WB in Human.
Background: Involucrin is a protein component of human skin and in humans is encoded by the IVL gene. It is a highly reactive, soluble, transglutaminase substrate protein present in keratinocytes of epidermisand other stratified squamous epithelia. It first appears in the cell cytosol, but ultimately becomes cross-linked to membrane proteins by transglutaminase thus helping in the formation of an insoluble envelope beneath theplasma membrane functioning as a glutamyl donor during assembly of the cornified envelope. Additionally, Involucrin is synthesised in the stratum spinosum and cross linked in the stratum granulosum by thetransglutaminase enzyme that makes it highly stable. Thus it provides structural support to the cell, thereby allowing the cell to resist invasion by micro-organisms.

Product Notes
The IVL ivl (Catalog #AAA46482) is an Antibody and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The Anti-Involucrin Antibody reacts with Human and may cross-react with other species as described in the data sheet. AAA Biotech's Involucrin can be used in a range of immunoassay formats including, but not limited to, WB (Western Blot). Researchers should empirically determine the suitability of the IVL ivl 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 "Involucrin, Polyclonal 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
