Overview
GCSAM Antibody / HGAL / GCET2 is an antibody targeting GCSAM. Host: Mouse. Monoclonal. Clone: HGAL/2373. Format: Purified. Applications: IHC-P.
Key elements and design rationale
- Target: GCSAM.
- Immunogen: A portion of amino acids 1-200 was used as the immunogen for the GCSAM antibody..
- Species reactivity: Human.
- Localization: Cytoplasm, Cell membrane.
- Conjugate: Unconjugated (no label listed).
Biological background (from provided description)
HGAL/GCSAM contains a putative PDZ-interacting domain, an immunoreceptor tyrosine-based activation motif (ITAM), and two putative SH2 binding sites. In B cells, its expression is specifically induced by interleukin-4. HGAL is specifically expressed in germinal center B-cells, but is absent in mantle and marginal zone B-cells and in the inter-follicular and para-cortical regions in normal tonsils and lymph nodes.
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).
