Product Overview
This rabbit polyclonal antibody targets amyloid-beta precursor protein (gene APP) in human, mouse and rat samples and is validated for ICC/IF, IHC and Western blot. The predicted molecular weight is 86.9 kDa, and the supplier reports an observed band at about 120 kDa.
Amyloid-beta precursor protein (APP) is a transmembrane protein highly expressed in neurons, where it supports neurite growth, adhesion and synapse function. Sequential cleavage by β- and γ-secretases releases amyloid-β peptides, which accumulate in the plaques of Alzheimer's disease, making APP one of the most studied proteins in neurodegeneration research.

Samples with a confirmed band (WB): human HeLa cells, human U-87MG cells, human T-47D cells, human A549 cells, human U2OS cells, rat brain tissue, mouse brain tissue.
Recommended loading (WB): 20–40 µg of total protein per lane.
Conditions in the example images (WB): 5–20% gradient SDS-PAGE under reducing conditions, 50 µg lysate per lane, transfer to nitrocellulose membrane, blocking in 5% non-fat milk, primary antibody at 0.5 µg/mL overnight at 4 °C, HRP-conjugated secondary antibody at 1:10000, ECL detection.
Samples with confirmed staining (IHC): human glioma tissue, mouse brain tissue, human renal cancer tissue, human tonsil tissue, rat brain tissue.
Recommended antigen retrieval: heat-mediated, in TE buffer (pH 9.0); citrate buffer (pH 6.0) can be used instead.
Conditions in the example images (IHC): heat-mediated antigen retrieval in citrate buffer (pH 6).
Samples with confirmed staining (ICC/IF): A431 cells.
Immunogen
Synthetic peptide from the C-terminal region of human APP. It differs from the mouse and rat sequences at three residues.
Reactivity Notes
The supplier lists reactivity with human, mouse and rat. UniProt places amyloid-beta precursor protein in the cell membrane, membrane, perikaryon and cell projection. Tissue expression noted by UniProt (human): Expressed in the brain and in cerebrospinal fluid (at protein level). The samples tested by the supplier (listed above) are a practical starting point for positive controls.
