Podocalyxin Antibody / PODXL

• Catalog Number: orb749747
• Category: Antibodies
• Description: Podocalyxin/PODXL is a member of the CD34 transmembrane sialomucin family. It is over-expressed on the podocyte foot projections and plays essential roles in kidney development and homeostasis, blood filtration and urine formation. It is also expressed on vascular endothelia, hematopoietic progenitors and a subset of neurons. Overexpression of podocalyxin may be linked to more aggressive tumor behavior. Podocalyxin antibody can identify podocytes in the urine (podocyturia) that may indicate glomerular disease, pre-eclampsia, and other kidney pathology.
• Clonality: Monoclonal
• Species/Host: Mouse
• Isotype: Mouse IgM
• Conjugation: Unconjugated
• Reactivity: Human, Rat
• Immunogen: A recombinant protein fragment containing the intracellular, transmembrane, and part of the extracellular domain of human PODXL was used as the immunogen for the Podocalyxin antibody.
• UniProt ID: O00592
• Tested applications: IHC-P, WB
• Dilution range: Immunohistochemistry (FFPE): 0.5-1ug/ml for 30 min at RT,Western blot: 1-2ug/ml
• Application notes: Optimal dilution of the PODXL antibody should be determined by the researcher.1. Staining of formalin-fixed tissues requires boiling tissue sections in 10mM Citrate buffer, pH 6.0, for 10-20 min followed by cooling at RT for 20 min2. The prediluted format is supplied in a dropper bottle and is optimized for use in IHC. After epitope retrieval step (if required), drip mAb solution onto the tissue section and incubate at RT for 30 min.
• Antibody Type: Primary Antibody
