Product Overview
This rabbit polyclonal antibody detects ectodysplasin-A (gene EDA) in human samples and is validated for Western blot. The predicted molecular weight is 41.3 kDa, and the supplier reports an observed band at about 43 kDa.
Ectodysplasin-A (EDA) is a TNF-family ligand that drives signaling between epithelium and mesenchyme during development of hair, teeth, sweat glands and other ectodermal organs. Its splice forms bind the receptors EDAR or EDA2R, and loss of EDA causes X-linked hypohidrotic ectodermal dysplasia.

Validated Applications
| Western blot | 0.1–0.5 µg/mL (Human) |
|---|
Samples with a confirmed band (WB): human Colo320 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, 30 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 1:5000, ECL detection.
Immunogen
Recombinant human EDA fragment (Ala30–Ser391), expressed in E. coli. Sequence identity with the mouse ortholog: 95%.
Reactivity Notes
The supplier lists reactivity with human. UniProt places ectodysplasin-A in the cell membrane. Tissue expression noted by UniProt (human): Not abundant. The samples tested by the supplier (listed above) are a practical starting point for positive controls.

Customization & Add-ons: Can’t find the antibody you need—or require a custom format for your assay? We can help you source the best match or support custom antibody solutions for diverse research needs, including species and isotype selection, conjugations and labeling (e.g., HRP/AP, biotin, fluorophores), purification grade options (Protein A/G, affinity purified), formulation preferences (buffer selection, carrier-free, glycerol-free), custom concentrations and aliquoting, low-endotoxin options for cell-based work, and application-focused QC/validation support (project dependent).
