Other Names | Immunoglobulin J chain, IGJ, IGCJ |
Target/Specificity | This IGJ antibody is generated from rabbits immunized with a KLH conjugated synthetic peptide between 32-61 amino acids from the N-terminal region of human IGJ. |
Dilution | WB~~1:1000 IHC-P~~1:50~100 FC~~1:10~50 |
Format | Purified polyclonal antibody supplied in PBS with 0.09% (W/V) sodium azide. This antibody is prepared by Saturated Ammonium Sulfate (SAS) precipitation followed by dialysis against PBS. |
Storage | Maintain refrigerated at 2-8°C for up to 2 weeks. For long term storage store at -20°C in small aliquots to prevent freeze-thaw cycles. |
Precautions | IGJ Antibody (N-term) is for research use only and not for use in diagnostic or therapeutic procedures. |
Name | JCHAIN (HGNC:5713) |
---|---|
Synonyms | IGCJ, IGJ |
Function | Serves to link two monomer units of either IgM or IgA. In the case of IgM, the J chain-joined dimer is a nucleating unit for the IgM pentamer, and in the case of IgA it induces dimers and/or larger polymers. It also helps to bind these immunoglobulins to secretory component. |
Cellular Location | Secreted {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P01592}. |
