Overview
Recombinant RBP4 Antibody / Retinol Binding Protein 4 is an antibody targeting RBP4. Host: Mouse. Monoclonal. Clone: rRBP4/7372. Format: Purified. Applications: IHC-P.
Key elements and design rationale
- Target: RBP4.
- Immunogen: A portion of amino acids 29-148 was used as the immunogen for the recombinant RBP4 antibody..
- Species reactivity: Human.
- Localization: Secreted.
- Conjugate: Unconjugated (no label listed).
Biological background (from provided description)
Retinol (Vitamin A) is transported in the blood bound to its carrier protein, retinol-binding protein (RBP), also designated plasma retinol-binding protein (PRBP) or RBP4. A member of the lipocalin family, RBP conveys retinol from stores in the liver to peripheral tissues. In plasma, RBP binds transthyretin (TTR, formerly called prealbumin) to prevent glomerular filtration of low molecular weight RBP in the kidneys.
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).
