Overview
Anti-Pig CD13/ANPEP/APN Antibody (2L8), PerCP targets CD13 (Microsomal aminopeptidase). Frequently used across ELISA, FCM, WB workflows, depending on experimental design and sample type. This antibody is suited for workflows commonly used in Immunology & Inflammation research.
Also known as: Microsomal aminopeptidase, Alanyl aminopeptidase, Aminopeptidase N, Aminopeptidase M, AP-N, AP-M, 3.4.11.2, gp130, ANPEP, pAPN.
Target biology
CD13 (Microsomal aminopeptidase) encodes a protease/peptidase involved in protein processing or turnover. Protease targets can appear as multiple bands/fragments depending on processing and sample handling. Common alternative names and symbols used in the literature include: Alanyl aminopeptidase, Aminopeptidase N, Aminopeptidase M, AP-N, AP-M, 3.4.11.2, gp130, ANPEP, pAPN. Based on the annotated name/class, the target is most often associated with context-dependent localization, though this can vary by model system.
How this antibody helps
As a monoclonal reagent, this antibody is designed for clone-to-clone consistency and epitope-focused recognition. For best performance, interpret signal in the context of appropriate biological controls and orthogonal readouts when available.
Recommended experimental notes
- Titrate the antibody to optimize signal-to-noise for your specific sample type and detection system.
- Use appropriate positive and negative controls (e.g., target-high vs target-low samples, KO/KD where available).
- For Western blotting, use fresh protease (and phosphatase, if relevant) inhibitors and confirm the primary band at the expected molecular weight; additional bands may reflect isoforms or processing.
- For ELISA, optimize capture/detection pairing and run a standard curve in matrix-matched diluent when possible.
