ZooMAb® antibodies represent an entirely new generation of recombinant monoclonal antibodies. Each ZooMAb® antibody is manufactured using our proprietary recombinant expression system, purified to homogeneity, and precisely dispensed to produce robust and highly reproducible lot-to-lot consistency. Only top-performing clones are released for use by researchers. Each antibody is validated for high specificity and affinity across multiple applications, including its most commonly used application. ZooMAb® antibodies are reliably available and ready to ship when you need them.

표적 설명
Mitofusin-1 (UniProt: Q8IWA4; also known as Fzo homolog, Transmembrane GTPase MFN1) is encoded by the MFN1 gene (Gene ID: 55669) in human. Mitofusin-1 and -2 (Mfn1 and Mfn2) are dynamin-related GTPase homologous proteins that are localized at the outer mitochondrial membrane and are essential for mitochondria fusion. They are thought to fuse adjacent mitochondria via concerted oligomerization and GTP hydrolysis. They also play a role in shaping the endoplasmic reticulum-mitochondria interface. They share about 80% sequence homology and contain homologous functional domains. Mitofusin-1 is a nuclear coded, homodimeric protein that can also form homomultimers and heteromultimers with mitofusin -2. It is ubiquitously distributed, but higher expression is observed in kidney and heart tissue. Mfn1 contains two cytoplasmic domains (aa 1-584; 630-741), two transmembrane domains (aa 585-605; 609-629) and a short mitochondrial intermembrane domain (aa 606-608). Its GTPase region is composed of a central β sheet with three helices on each side. Silencing of MFN1 gene is reported to inhibit mitochondrial fusion and subsequently reduced ATP production. Three isoforms of Mfn1 have been described that are produced by alternative splicing. This ZooMAb® recombinant monoclonal antibody, generated by our propriety technology, offers significantly enhanced specificity, affinity, reproducibility, and stability over conventional monoclonals.

물리적 형태
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.
재구성
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.
저장 및 안정성
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.
