General description

Anti-Water Channel Aquaporin 5 binds to aquaporin 5 from mouse salivary gland and rat lung membranes.
Aquaporin-5 is part of a family of aquaporins that function to transport water across cell membranes. AQP5 is involved in tear, saliva, and sweat production.
Aquaporins are a family of small integral membrane proteins related to the major intrinsic protein (MIP or AQP0).

Immunogen

peptide corresponding to residues 251-265 of rat AQP5. The sequence is identical in mouse and 10/16 residues identical in human.

Application

Rabbit Anti-Water Channel Aquaporin 5 antibody can be used for western blot at a dilution of 1:200-1:500 using mouse salivary gland and rat lung tissue extracts.

Physical form

Lyophilized from phosphate buffered saline, pH 7.4, 1% BSA, ≤0.1% sodium azide.
