Product Specifications

Immunogen

8E5 was prepared fusing Sp2/o myeloma cells with spleen cells derived from female BALB/c mice immunized with a synthetic beta-fibrin peptide seqeunce GHRPLDKC conjugated to MB-KLH (maleimidobenzoylated keyhole limpet hemocyanin).

Specificity

8E5 binds to the amino-terminal region of the beta-chain of human fibrin at an epitope consiting of GHRPLDKC. Binding is possible in both the monomeric form and the polymeric form of the protein. This peptide sequence is found only in fibrin, and not in its precursor fibrinogen and so there is no cross-reactivity with fibrinogen. Fibrin is a non-globular protein which plays a role in the clotting of blood and circulates as the precursor fibrinogen. Polymerization occurs through the action of the protease thrombin, which results in the active fibrin. Fibrin polymerizes as an insoluble matrix and forms a clot along with platelets over a wound site.

Applications for Fibrin beta-chain Antibody (8E5) - Azide and BSA Free

Application
Recommended Usage

ELISA

Optimal dilutions of this antibody should be experimentally determined.

In vivo assay

Optimal dilutions of this antibody should be experimentally determined.
Application Notes
The recombinant scFv version of 8E5 retains the same antigen-binding activity of the parent antibody. 8E5 can bind to fibrin in the monomeric and polymeric form, both in vivo and ex vivo. This antibody can also be used for the immunodetection of fibrin in vivo. Standard ELISA and competitive ELISA using the epitope peptide has been conducted with both the parental antibody and the scFv.
