Immunogen
A synthetic peptide from the n-terminal region of rat Aquaporin 8 (AQP8) conjugated to an immunogenic carrier protein was used as the antigen.
Accession
Also known
Aquaporin-8, AQP-8, AQP8, Aquaporin8
Target
FUNCTION: Forms a water-specific channel; mercury-sensitive. It may have an important role in spermatogenesis, in fertilization, and in the secretion of pancreatic juice and saliva.
Tissue specificity: Highly expressed in sperm, pancreas and liver. Some expression has been found in salivary gland and absorptive colonic epithelial cells. Aquaporins contain two tandem repeats each containing three membrane-spanning domains and a pore-forming loop with the signature motif Asn-Pro-Ala (NPA).
SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Cell membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein.
Storage
Maintain the lyophilised/reconstituted antibodies frozen at -20°C for long term storage and refrigerated at 2-8°C for a shorter term. When reconstituting, glycerol (1:1) may be added for an additional stability. Avoid freeze and thaw cycles.
Expiry Date
12 months after reconstitution
Shipping
This item will be shipped to you at ambient temperature in a lyophilised form.
