Overview
BNP Antibody / Brain Natriuretic Peptide / NPPB is an antibody targeting BNP. Host: Mouse. Monoclonal. Clone: NPPB/4493. Format: Purified. Applications: IHC-P.
Key elements and design rationale
- Target: BNP.
- Immunogen: A recombinant protein fragment was used as the immunogen for the BNP antibody..
- Species reactivity: Human.
- Localization: Secreted.
- Conjugate: Unconjugated (no label listed).
Biological background (from provided description)
Natriuretic peptides comprise a family of three structurally related molecules: atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP), brain natriuretic peptide (BNP) and C-type natriuretic peptide (CNP). ANP and BNP act mainly as cardiac hormones, produced primarily by the atrium and ventricle, respectively, while the gene encoding C-type natriuretic peptide is expressed mainly in the brain.
Common research applications
- IHC: tissue distribution assessment; interpret with matched controls.
Notes for experimental interpretation
- Account for isoforms, paralogs, and post-translational modifications when interpreting signal.
- Support specificity with biological controls (e.g., KO/KD where available) and technical controls (e.g., secondary-only/isotype).
Customization & Add-ons: Can’t find the antibody you need—or require a custom format for your assay? We can help you source the best match or support custom antibody solutions for diverse research needs, including species and isotype selection, conjugations and labeling (e.g., HRP/AP, biotin, fluorophores), purification grade options (Protein A/G, affinity purified), formulation preferences (buffer selection, carrier-free, glycerol-free), custom concentrations and aliquoting, low-endotoxin options for cell-based work, and application-focused QC/validation support (project dependent).
