• Target description: Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma (UniProt: P37231; also known as PPAR-gamma, Nuclear receptor subfamily 1 group C member 3) is encoded by the PPARG (also known as GLM1, NR1C3) gene (Gene ID 5468) in human. Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptors (PPARs) are members of the nuclear hormone receptor family of transcription factors that mediate a variety of cellular processes, including glucose and lipid metabolism, inflammatory responses, and regulation of apoptotic cell death. They act by binding to specific peroxisome proliferator-response elements (PPREs) on target genes. Three forms of PPARs have been described, which are designated as a, g, and d forms. They contain a DNA binding domain and a ligand-binding domain. Each form is expressed in different tissues and can be activated by different ligands, most of them being specific for one form of PPAR. PPARg is predominantly expressed in the adipose tissue and its lower expression is observed in skeletal muscle, heart, liver, and spleen. It serves as a nuclear receptor that binds peroxisome proliferators such as hypolipidemic drugs and fatty acids. Once activated by a ligand, it binds to DNA specific PPAR response elements (PPRE) and modulates the transcription of its target genes. It controls the peroxisomal b -oxidation pathway of fatty acids and is a key regulator of adipocyte differentiation and glucose homeostasis. It mediates the anti-diabetic and adipogenic actions of the thiazolidinediones Defects in PPARg have been linked to Type II insulin-resistant diabetes and hypertension. Mutations ins PPARG gene have also been linked to familial type lipodystrophy that is characterized by marked loss of subcutaneous fat from the extremities. This ZooMAb® recombinant monoclonal antibody, generated by our propriety technology, offers significantly enhanced specificity, affinity, reproducibility, and stability over conventional monoclonals.
• Physical form: Purified recombinant rabbit monoclonal antibody IgG, lyophilized in PBS with 5% Trehalose, normal appearance a coarse or translucent resin. The PBS/trehalose components in the ZooMAb® formulation can have the appearance of a semi-solid (bead like gel) after lyophilization. This is a normal phenomenon. Please follow the recommended reconstitution procedure in the data sheet to dissolve the semi-solid, bead-like, gel-appearing material. The resulting antibody solution is completely stable and functional as proven by full functional testing. Contains no biocide or preservatives, such as azide, or any animal by-products. Larger pack sizes provided as multiples of 25 μL.
• Reconstitution: 300 μg/mL after reconstitution at 25 μL per vial. Please refer to guidance on suggested starting dilutions and/or titers per application and sample type.
• Storage and Stability: Recommend storage of lyophilized product at 2-8°C; Before reconstitution, micro-centrifuge vials briefly to spin down material to bottom of the vial; Reconstitute each vial by adding 25 μL of filtered lab grade water or PBS; Reconstituted antibodies can be stored at 2-8°C, or -20°C for long term storage. Avoid repeated freeze-thaws.
