Descripción

Descripción general

AFM (afamin) is a 75kDa vitamin E-binding glycoprotein belonging to the albumin gene family. It consists of four or five potential N-glycosylation sites. In humans, it is synthesized by cerebrovascular endothelial cells and expressed in human plasma.

Inmunógeno

Afamin precursor recombinant protein epitope signature tag (PrEST)

Aplicación

All Prestige Antibodies Powered by Atlas Antibodies are developed and validated by the Human Protein Atlas (HPA) project and as a result, are supported by the most extensive characterization in the industry.

The Human Protein Atlas project can be subdivided into three efforts: Human Tissue Atlas, Cancer Atlas, and Human Cell Atlas. The antibodies that have been generated in support of the Tissue and Cancer Atlas projects have been tested by immunohistochemistry against hundreds of normal and disease tissues and through the recent efforts of the Human Cell Atlas project, many have been characterized by immunofluorescence to map the human proteome not only at the tissue level but now at the subcellular level. These images and the collection of this vast data set can be viewed on the Human Protein Atlas (HPA) site by clicking on the Image Gallery link. We also provide Prestige Antibodies^® protocols and other useful information.

Acciones bioquímicas o fisiológicas

AFM (afamin) possesses specific binding affinity for the two forms of vitamin E, α-tocopherol and γ-tocopherol. It carries both the forms of vitamin E through the body fluids such as human plasma and follicular fluid under certain conditions, which contributes in the vitamin E transport. It has been reported that AFM may play a role in the fertility and neuro-protection. Increased level of AFM causes insulin resistance and metabolic disorder, polycystic ovary syndrome.

Características y beneficios

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.
