Overview
CGA Antibody / Choriogonadotropin alpha is an antibody targeting CGA. Host: Rabbit. Polyclonal. Format: Lyophilized. Applications: WB, IHC, FACS.
Key elements and design rationale
- Target: CGA.
- Immunogen: A synthetic peptide corresponding to a sequence at the N-terminus of human Choriogonadotropin alpha was used as the imm….
- Species reactivity: Human, Mouse, Rat.
- Conjugate: Unconjugated (no label listed).
Biological background (from provided description)
CGA antibody detects Choriogonadotropin alpha, a glycoprotein hormone subunit that forms the alpha component of several pituitary and placental hormones. The UniProt recommended name is Glycoprotein hormones alpha chain (CGA).
Common research applications
- WB: relative abundance and band pattern assessment using appropriate controls.
- 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).
