Vendor description (summary): Boster Bio Anti-Gbp4 Antibody Picoband® catalog # A02860-4.
Biological background
Biological context: Stimulates the release of tumor necrosis factor alpha and IL-1-beta from the monocytic cell line THP-1. .
Expression and localization notes: cellular localization: Secreted., tissue context: Expressed in adult pancreas, small intestine, stomach, spinal cord and testis. Less pronounced expression in prostate, colon mucosal lining, and ovary..
Common research applications
- Western blotting (WB): Compare Gbp4 levels across samples and conditions using appropriate loading and biological controls.
- Immunohistochemistry (IHC): Evaluate spatial distribution of Gbp4 in tissue sections, considering fixation and antigen retrieval effects.
- Flow cytometry: Quantify Gbp4-positive populations in single-cell suspensions with appropriate gating and controls.
- ELISA: Use antibody-based detection formats to assess antigen presence or binding in plate-based assays.
Notes for experimental interpretation
- Account for isoforms, post-translational modifications, and sample-specific processing that can shift apparent molecular weight or epitope accessibility.
- Use positive/negative biological controls where possible (e.g., known-expressing cells/tissues, knockdown/knockout models) and include appropriate secondary-only/isotype controls for imaging workflows.
Additional product notes (from provided fields)
- Background: Guanylate binding protein 4 is a protein in humans that is encoded by the GBP4 gene. Guanylate-binding protein 4, Binds GTP, GDP and GMP. Hydrolyzes GTP very efficiently; GDP rather than GMP is the major reaction product. Plays a role in erythroid differentiation.
- Cross reactivity: No cross-reactivity with other proteins.
- Cellular localization: Secreted.
- Tissue details: Expressed in adult pancreas, small intestine, stomach, spinal cord and testis. Less pronounced expression in prostate, colon mucosal lining, and ovary.
- Research category: Cytokines,Immunology,Innate Immunity,Interleukins
