Product Overview
This rabbit polyclonal antibody targets spermatogenesis-associated protein 20 (gene SPATA20) in human and mouse samples and is validated for Western blot, flow cytometry and ELISA. The predicted molecular weight is 87.9 kDa, and the supplier reports an observed band at about 88 kDa.
Spermatogenesis-associated protein 20 (SPATA20) is expressed in the testis and may play a role in regulating fertility. Its function has not been fully characterized.

Recommended loading (WB): 20–40 µg of total protein per lane.
Conditions in the example images (WB): 5–20% gradient SDS-PAGE under reducing conditions, 30 µg lysate per lane, transfer to nitrocellulose membrane, blocking in 5% non-fat milk, primary antibody at 0.5 µg/mL overnight at 4 °C, HRP-conjugated secondary antibody at 1:5000, ECL detection.
Samples with a confirmed signal (flow cytometry): 293T cells.
Immunogen
Recombinant human SPATA20 fragment (Lys396–Pro786), expressed in E. coli.
Reactivity Notes
The supplier lists reactivity with human and mouse. UniProt describes spermatogenesis-associated protein 20 as a secreted protein. The samples tested by the supplier (listed above) are a practical starting point for positive controls.
