Overview
IgM Antibody is an antibody targeting IgM. Host: Mouse. Monoclonal. Clone: IGHM/1623. Format: Purified. Applications: ELISA.
Key elements and design rationale
- Target: IgM.
- Immunogen: The heavy chain of human IgM was used as the immunogen for the IgM antibody..
- Species reactivity: Human.
- Localization: Cell membrane, Secreted.
- Conjugate: Unconjugated (no label listed).
Biological background (from provided description)
Recognizes a protein of 75kDa, identified as mu heavy chain of human immunoglobulins. It does not cross-react with alpha (IgA), gamma (IgG), epsilon (IgE), or delta (IgD), heavy chains, T-cells, monocytes, granulocytes, or erythrocytes. Monomeric IgM is expressed as a membrane bound antibody on the surface of B cells and as a pentamer when secreted by plasma cells.
Common research applications
- Suitable for antibody-based detection workflows where target signal comparison and localization are required.
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).
