Anti-ADA antibody produced in rabbit

Description

• Immunogen: Adenosine deaminase recombinant protein epitope signature tag (PrEST)
• Application: Anti-ADA antibody produced in rabbit is suitable for use as an antibody suspension bead array in affinity proteomic array to explore the potentiality of the human proteins in plasma to predict disease status during malaria infections.Anti-ADA antibody produced in rabbit, a Prestige Antibody, is developed and validated by the Human Protein Atlas (HPA) project . Each antibody is tested by immunohistochemistry against hundreds of normal and disease tissues. These images can be viewed on the Human Protein Atlas (HPA) site by clicking on the Image Gallery link. The antibodies are also tested using immunofluorescence and western blotting. To view these protocols and other useful information about Prestige Antibodies and the HPA, visit sigma.com/prestige.
• Biochem/physiol Actions: ADA (adenosine deaminase) gene encodes an enzyme that catalyzes the hydrolysis of adenosine to inosine. It is involved in the maintenance of adenosine homeostasis and plays a role in purine metabolism. It interacts with CD26 and mediates epithelial and lymphocyte cell adhesion. It also transduces co-stimulatory signals in T cells by interacting with CD26, an integral membrane protein. Defects in this gene can cause a deficiency of ADA resulting in severe combined immunodeficiency disease (SCID) with dysfunction of both B and T lymphocytes, impaired cellular immunity and decreased production of immunoglobulins. Overexpression of this enzyme can lead to congenital hemolytic anemia.
• Features and Benefits: Prestige Antibodies® are highly characterized and extensively validated antibodies with the added benefit of all available characterization data for each target being accessible via the Human Protein Atlas portal linked just below the product name at the top of this page. The uniqueness and low cross-reactivity of the Prestige Antibodies® to other proteins are due to a thorough selection of antigen regions, affinity purification, and stringent selection. Prestige antigen controls are available for every corresponding Prestige Antibody and can be found in the linkage section.Every Prestige Antibody is tested in the following ways:IHC tissue array of 44 normal human tissues and 20 of the most common cancer type tissues.Protein array of 364 human recombinant protein fragments.
