GAD2 Antibody, HRP conjugated

Overview

This polyclonal anti-GAD2 antibody raised in Rabbit, conjugated with HRP, tested in ELISA. Designed to detect GAD2 in Human for neuroscience research.

Key elements and design rationale

• Immunogen: Recombinant Human Glutamate decarboxylase 2 protein (1-82AA) — determines epitope; confirm sample prep compatibility.
• Host (Rabbit): Requires anti-rabbit-IgG secondary matching isotype IgG.
• Polyclonal: Multiple epitopes = robust signal; lot-to-lot variability — include controls.
• Isotype (IgG): Match secondary, Protein A/G, and isotype controls to IgG.
• Purification (Protein G purification): Enriches Ig classes; reduces non-specific background.
• HRP: Direct detection (TMB/ECL); quench endogenous peroxidase in tissue assays.

Biological background

GAD2 (also: 65 kDa glutamic acid decarboxylase, DCE 2, DCE2, DCE2_HUMAN, GAD 2, GAD 65, GAD-2, GAD-65, Gad2, Glutamate decarboxylase 2 (pancreas), Glutamate Decarboxylase 2 (pancreatic islets and brain 65kDa), Glutamate decarboxylase 2, Glutamate Decarboxylase 65, Glutamate decarboxylase 65 kDa isoform, Glutamic Acid Decarboxylase 2, Glutamic Acid Decarboxylase 65, MGC161605, MGC161607) — studied in Human systems. Expression, localization, and PTMs vary across cell types and disease states. Consult UniProt, NCBI Gene, and primary literature for current GAD2 annotation relevant to neuroscience.

Common research applications

• ELISA: Quantify soluble target; ensure samples within the linear detection range.

Notes for experimental interpretation

• Isotype controls: IgG from Rabbit at equivalent concentration.
• Cross-reactivity: Polyclonal: validate with KO/KD controls.
• Matrix effects: Verify dilution linearity in your sample matrix.
• Reactivity: Confirmed for Human; extrapolation requires validation.

This product is a polyclonal antibody purified from rabbit antiserum.
