Description
Rabbit IgG polyclonal antibody for Alkaline phosphatase, tissue-nonspecific isozyme(ALPL) detection. Tested with WB, IHC-P in Mouse;Rat. No cross reactivity with other proteins. Alkaline phosphatase, tissue-nonspecific isozyme is an enzyme that in humans is encoded by the ALPL gene. There are at least four distinct but related alkaline phosphatases: intestinal, placental, placental-like, and liver/bone/kidney(tissue non-specific). The first three are located together on chromosome 2 while the tissue non-specific form is located on chromosome 1. Liver/bone/kidney alkaline phosphatase, also known as tissue-nonspecific alkaline phosphatase, acts physiologically as a lipid-anchored phosphoethanolamine(PEA) and pyridoxal-5-prime-phosphate(PLP) ectophosphatase Mice that lack a functional form of this enzyme show normal skeletal development. This enzyme has been linked directly to a disorder known as hypophosphatasia, a disorder that is characterized by hypercalcemia and includes skeletal defects.
Immunogen
A synthetic peptide corresponding to a sequence at the N-terminus of rat Alkaline Phosphatase(18-32aa, FVPEKEKDPSYWRQQ), different from the related mouse sequence by one amino acid.
