Anti-Complement factor I (human)

Mouse monoclonal antibody

Cat.No. HYB 061-01

Subclass IgG1/l
Presentation:

Preparation: Protein-A/G purified
Content: Available in 200 µL and 1 mL size.1 mg/mL +/- 15%. See Certificate of Analysis for details.
Solvent: 0.01 M phosphate buffer, pH 7.4, with 0.5 M NaCl and 15mM sodium azide
Storage: 4-8ºC without exposure to light. No precautions necessary during handling.

Antigen:

Factor I, a serine protease, is a regulatory component of both the alternative and the classical complement pathway. Factor I is synthesized as a single chain precursor of 88 kDa, processed to yield the active form, composed of two disulfide-linked chains, the alpha-chain (50 kDa) and the beta-chain (38 kDa) (2). The concantration in plasma is 35 µg/ml (1).

Immunogen:

Factor I isolated from human plasma adsorbed onto aluminum hydroxide gel

Specificity:

HYB 061-01 is specific for the alpha-chain of human factor I

Epitope specificity:

Not determined

Reactivity:

HYB 061-01 reacts strongly with factor I. A strong reaction is seen with normal human plasma when used in sandwich ELISA in combination with a polyclonal antibody against factor I as capture antbody (e.g. sheep anti human factor I from Serotec). In Western blotting after SDS-PAGE, HYB 061-01 reacts with factor I in non-reduced form.
