Gene Information

human ... LUM(4060)

Specificity

Recognizes 2-3 disaccharide units on both skeletal (type II) and corneal (type I) keratan sulfate chains either in isolated or proteoglycan-bound form. The epitope is resistant to proteolytic or alkaline cleavages and partially sensitive to keratanase or other endo-B-galactosidase treatment.

Immunogen

Human articular cartilage proteoglycan digested with chondroitinase ABC.

Application

Anti-Keratan Sulfate Antibody, clone EFG-11 is an antibody against Keratan Sulfate for use in ELISA, RIA & WB.
