Overview
Carboxypeptidase A1 Antibody / CPA1 is an antibody targeting Carboxypeptidase. Host: Rabbit. Monoclonal. Clone: CPA1/8163R. Format: Purified. Applications: IHC-P.
Key elements and design rationale
- Target: Carboxypeptidase.
- Immunogen: Recombinant full-length human protein was used as the immunogen for the Carboxypeptidase A1 antibody..
- Species reactivity: Human.
- Localization: Secreted.
- Conjugate: Unconjugated (no label listed).
Biological background (from provided description)
Carboxypeptidase A1, also known as CPA1, is a 419 amino acid secreted monomeric protein that is highly expressed in pancreatic tissue. Functioning as a pancreatic exopeptidase, CPA1 uses zinc as a cofactor to catalyze the release of C-terminal amino acids from a variety of proteins, thereby playing a key role in protein digestion and degradation.
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).
