Product Overview
Clone AEGH-1 is a rabbit monoclonal antibody that recognizes tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase type 5 (gene ACP5) in human, mouse and rat samples and is validated for Western blot, IHC, ICC/IF and immunoprecipitation. The predicted molecular weight is 36.6 kDa, and the supplier reports an observed band at about 37 kDa.
Tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase type 5 (ACP5, TRAP) is an iron-containing phosphatase highly expressed in osteoclasts and activated macrophages. It dephosphorylates bone matrix proteins such as osteopontin, and TRAP staining or serum TRAP5b is a standard marker of osteoclasts and bone resorption.

Samples with a confirmed band (WB): human A431 cells.
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 1:500 overnight at 4 °C, HRP-conjugated secondary antibody at 1:5000, ECL detection.
Immunogen
Synthetic peptide based on the sequence of human tartrate Resistant Acid Phosphatase.
Reactivity Notes
The supplier lists reactivity with human, mouse and rat. UniProt describes tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase type 5 as secreted and also located in the lysosome. The samples tested by the supplier (listed above) are a practical starting point for positive controls.
