Oxyntomodulin Antibody – Rabbit Polyclonal

Glucagon is a member of a multigene family comprising Secretin, Vasoactive Intestinal Peptide (VIP), Gastric Inhibitory Peptide (GIP) and others like Glicentin and Oxyntomodulin (OXM), which differs from glucagon by C-terminal octapeptide.  The glucagon precursor contains at least 3 intervening sequences that divide the protein-coding portion into 4 regions corresponding to the signal peptide and part of the N-terminal peptide, the remainder of the N-terminal peptide and glucagon, glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP1), and GLP2. OXM, a 37aa peptide contains the glucagon sequence extended by a C-terminal basic octapeptide, its primary structure is identical in all mammals except in pig and cattle. OXM is released from the gut during digestion, together with glicetin another octapeptide containing molecule. It is considered as putative physiological regulator of gastric acid secretion, it inhibits histamine.

Small volumes of anti-Oxyntomodulin antibody vial(s) may occasionally become entrapped in the seal of the product vial during shipment and storage. If necessary, briefly centrifuge the vial on a tabletop centrifuge to dislodge any liquid in the container`s cap. Certain products may require to ship with dry ice and additional dry ice fee may apply.

OXM Oxyntomodulin polyclonal antibody has been generated using a C-terminal homologous peptide antigen. Rabbit sera was further affinity purified using KLH technology. This IgG class antibody is suitable for research applications in nutrition and appetite biology via the glucagon peptide hormone system. This anti oxyntomodulin antibody was developed for optimal reactivity to human OXM peptide but shows cross species specificity to human mouse rat. This product is validated for ELISA kits development, western blot and immunohistochemistry ( IHC ) to detect oxyntomodulin OXM and not other proteins. EMD Millipore, the manufacturer and MyBiosource.com the supplier guarantee this anti OXM oxyntomodulin antibody is a higher standard than other org reagents and antibody products, so they invite you to view the company supplier pagepricing and info compare quote selected items. The pagepricing info will also have area for users to write review about applications for this unconjugated and other available antibodies
