Product Overview
This rabbit polyclonal antibody targets peptide YY (gene Pyy) in mouse and rat samples and is validated for ICC/IF and IHC. The predicted molecular weight is 11.1 kDa.
Peptide YY (PYY) is a gut hormone released from L cells of the distal intestine after meals. Acting mainly through NPY Y2 receptors, it reduces appetite and slows gastric emptying and intestinal transit, which makes it a focus of obesity and energy balance research.
| Target | Peptide YY (gene Pyy; UniProt Q9EPS2, mouse) |

| Form | Lyophilized |
| Formulation | Per vial: 0.9 mg NaCl; 0.2 mg Na2HPO4; 0.01 mg NaN3; plus stabilizers |
| Calculated MW | 11.1 kDa |
| Storage | As supplied: −20 °C for up to 12 months from receipt. After reconstitution: 4 °C for up to 1 month, or aliquot and keep at −20 °C for up to 6 months. Avoid repeated freeze–thaw cycles. |
Validated Applications
| IHC (paraffin sections) | 0.5–1 µg/mL (Mouse, Rat) |
|---|---|
| Immunocytochemistry / Immunofluorescence | 5 µg/mL (Rat) |
Samples with confirmed staining (IHC): mouse pancreas tissue, mouse intestine tissue, rat intestine tissue, rat pancreas 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).
Samples with confirmed staining (ICC/IF): rat stomach tissue.
Immunogen
Synthetic peptide from the middle region of mouse peptide YY. The peptide sequence is conserved in rat. It differs from the human sequence at three residues.
Reactivity Notes
The supplier lists reactivity with mouse and rat. UniProt places peptide YY in the [Peptide YY]: Secreted.
