Product Overview
This rabbit polyclonal antibody targets nitric oxide synthase 3 (gene NOS3) in human samples and is validated for Western blot, ICC/IF, flow cytometry and ELISA. The predicted molecular weight is 133.3 kDa, and the supplier reports an observed band at about 140 kDa.
Endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS, NOS3) produces nitric oxide in blood vessel endothelium. Nitric oxide diffuses to smooth muscle and relaxes it through cGMP signaling, and it also supports VEGF-driven angiogenesis and affects platelet function. eNOS activity and phosphorylation are widely studied in vascular biology, blood pressure regulation and endothelial dysfunction.

Immunogen
Recombinant human eNOS/NOS3 fragment (Pro34–Gln1153), expressed in E. coli.
Reactivity Notes
The supplier lists reactivity with human. UniProt places nitric oxide synthase 3 in the cell membrane, membrane, cytoplasm and Golgi apparatus. Tissue expression noted by UniProt (human): Platelets, placenta, liver and kidney. The samples tested by the supplier (listed above) are a practical starting point for positive controls.
