"TC Supernatant" vs. "Purified"

TC Supernatant
Hybridoma tissue-culture supernatant (5mL) generally containing 10-50 ug/mL monoclonal antibody (clone-dependent) can be a very economical choice. Supernatant is suitable for most applications including Western Blot, immunocytochemistry, immunohistochemistry etc. For applications requiring higher antibody concentration or purity (such as immunoprecipitation, microinjection, or conjugation) it is recommended that you purchase the purified form of the antibody (supplied at 1mg/mL).

Purified mAbs
Produced by in vitro bioreactor culture of hybridoma lines followed by Protein A affinity chromatography. Purified mAbs are >90% specific antibody at 1mg/mL.

Target Description:

Gamma-protocadherins belong to a superfamily of homophilic cell-adhesion proteins. These cell adhesion proteins are thought to be involved in establishing and function of cell-cell connections in brain. These proteins are widely expressed in the nervous system and brain.

Immunogen:

Fusion protein corresponding to amino acids 808-931 (C-terminal cytoplasmic constant domain) of mouse Gamma-protocadherin-A1 that is shared by all 22 Gamma-protocadherins (A subfamily amino acids ~807-930, B subfamily amino acids ~789-912 and C subfamily amino acids ~818-941); Human: 99% identity (123/124 amino acids identical)

Cross Reactivity:

Cross-reacts with all Gamma protocadherin-A, -B and -C proteins

Protein Name(s):

Pan-Gamma-protocadherin-Constant

Gene Name(s):

Pcdhga3

Antibody Registry ID:

Purified: AB_2159449
