Product Overview
This rabbit polyclonal antibody recognizes ferritin heavy chain (gene Fer1HCH) in Fruit fly samples.
In Drosophila, ferritin 1 heavy chain homolog (Fer1HCH) is a subunit of ferritin, the protein shell that stores iron in a soluble, non-toxic form. The heavy chain has ferroxidase activity that oxidizes ferrous iron for storage, and Drosophila ferritin is secreted and studied in iron homeostasis and dietary iron uptake in the fly gut.

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).
