Application

Anti-LBP antibody produced in rabbit is suitable for use as an antibody suspension bead array in affinity proteomic array to explore the potential of the human proteins in plasma to predict disease status during malaria infections.
Anti-LBP 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

LBP (Lipopolysaccharide-binding protein) gene encodes a protein that binds to lipopolysaccharide (LPS) on the outer cell wall of gram-negative bacteria. The expression of this gene is upregulated when there is sepsis. It is a 58kDa protein that is synthesized in the liver and released into the bloodstream upon bacterial infection. It binds to LPS along with bactericidal permeability-increasing protein (BPI) by interacting with the CD14 receptor. It is involved in the regulation of LPS-dependent monocyte responses. It is a member of lipid binding proteins that are structurally and functionally related. These include BPI, plasma cholesteryl ester transfer protein (CETP), and phospholipid transfer protein (PLTP).

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.
