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.

Specificity

Clone 1G10.2 is a ZooMAb mouse recombinant monoclonal antibody that specifically detects Glutamate decarboxylase 1 (GAD67).

Immunogen

Recombinant human Glutamate decarboxylase 1 (GAD67).

Application

Anti-GAD67, clone 1G10.2 ZooMAb, Cat. No. ZMS5406, is a recombinant Mouse monoclonal antibody that specifically targets Glutamate decarboxylase 1 (GAD67) and is tested in Immunocytochemistry, Immunohistochemistry (Paraffin), and Western Blotting.
Western Blotting Analysis: A 1:1,000 dilution from a representative lot detected GAD67 in mouse brain tissue lysate.

Immunocytochemistry Analysis: A 1:100 dilution from a representative lot detected GAD67 in rat E18 cortical cells.

Immunohistochemistry (Paraffin) Analysis: A 1:100 dilution from a representative lot detected GAD67 in mouse brain and rat brain tissue sections.

Note: Actual optimal working dilutions must be determined by end user as specimens, and experimental conditions may vary with the end user

Target description

Glutamate decarboxylase 1 (UniProt: Q99259; also known as EC:4.1.1.15, 67 kDa glutamic acid decarboxylase, GAD-67, Glutamate decarboxylase 67 kDa isoform) is encoded by the GAD1 (also known as GAD, GAD67) gene (Gene ID:2571) in human. Glutamic acid decarboxylase (GAD; E.C. 4.1.1.15) is the enzyme responsible for the conversion of glutamic acid to gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA), the major inhibitory transmitter in higher brain regions, and putative paracrine hormone in pancreatic islets. Two molecular forms of GAD have been described (65 kDa and 67 kDa) that display 64% amino acid homology and both forms are expressed in the CNS, pancreatic islet cells, testis, oviduct, and ovary. Between the two isoforms, GAD67 is responsible for over 90% of basal GABA synthesis and is produced at limiting levels in the brain. These isoforms are regionally distributed in cytoplasm in the brains of rats and mice. GAD67 expression is shown to change during neural development in rat spinal cord and its expression seems to be particularly plastic and can change in response to experimental manipulation and disease progression. This ZooMAb recombinant monoclonal antibody, generated by our propriety technology, offers significantly enhanced specificity, affinity, reproducibility, and stability over conventional monoclonals.

Physical form

Purified recombinant mouse monoclonal antibody IgG, lyophilized in PBS, 5% Trehalose, normal appearance a coarse or translucent resin. Contains no biocide or preservatives, such as azide, or any animal by-products. Larger pack sizes provided as multiples of 25 μL.

Reconstitution

0.3 mg/mL after reconstitution at 25 μL per vial. Please refer to guidance on suggested starting dilutions and/or titers per application and sample type.

Storage and Stability

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.
