Overview
Periostin Antibody / POSTN is an antibody targeting Periostin. Host: Mouse. Monoclonal. Clone: POSTN/3502. Format: Purified. Applications: ELISA, IHC-P.
Key elements and design rationale
- Target: Periostin.
- Immunogen: A recombinant partial protein sequence (within amino acids 193-326) from the human protein was used as the immunogen fo….
- Species reactivity: Human.
- Localization: Secreted, Cytoplasm.
- Conjugate: Unconjugated (no label listed).
Biological background (from provided description)
Periostin (PN), also designated osteoblast-specific factor 2 (OSF-2), is a disulfide linked protein originally isolated as a osteoblast-specific factor. Periostin is a secreted protein that binds heparin and functions as a ligand for AlphaVBeta3 and AlphaVBeta5 integrins.
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).
