Product Overview
This rabbit polyclonal antibody targets cytidine deaminase (gene CDA) in human, mouse and rat samples and is validated for IHC and Western blot. The predicted molecular weight is 16.2 kDa, and the supplier reports an observed band at about 16 kDa.
Cytidine deaminase (CDA) is an enzyme that converts cytidine and deoxycytidine to uridine and deoxyuridine as part of pyrimidine salvage. It also inactivates cytidine-analog drugs such as cytarabine and gemcitabine, so it is studied in nucleotide metabolism and chemotherapy response.

Validated Applications
| Western blot | 0.1–0.5 µg/mL |
|---|---|
| IHC (paraffin sections) | 0.5–1 µg/mL |
Samples with a confirmed band (WB): human HeLa cells.
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 intestinal cancer tissue, human lung cancer tissue, mouse intestine tissue, human mammary cancer tissue, human tonsil tissue, rat brain tissue, rat intestine 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).
Immunogen
Synthetic peptide from the N-terminal region of human CDA. Sequence identity with the mouse and rat orthologs: 63%.
Reactivity Notes
The supplier lists reactivity with human, mouse and rat. Tissue expression noted by UniProt (human): Highly expressed in granulocytes while expression is very low in fibroblasts, chondrocytes, monocytes, and T- as well as B-cell lines. The samples tested by the supplier (listed above) are a practical starting point for positive controls.
