Product Summary for Aggrecan Antibody (MK-302)

Immunogen

Chondroitinase ABC-digested adult human aggrecan.

Reactivity Notes

Please note that this antibody is reactive to Mouse and derived from the same host, Mouse. Additional Mouse on Mouse blocking steps may be required for IHC and ICC experiments. Please contact Technical Support for more information.

Specificity

Reacts with a wide range of cartilage proteoglycans after either chondroitinase (ABC or AC) or testicular hyaluronidase digestion. Native proteoglycans do not react with MAB2035. Antibody binding to epitope is successfully inhibited by disaccharides of chondroitin-6-sulfate. Recognizes the chondroitin-6-sulfate stubs (preferentially in clusters) of high density cartilage proteoglycans of different species. No cross-reactivity with dermatan sulfate, keratan sulfate or chondroitin-4-sulfate.

Applications for Aggrecan Antibody (MK-302)

Application
Recommended Usage

ELISA

1:100-1:5000

Radioimmunoassay

1:100-1:200

Western Blot

1:100-1:2000
Application Notes
Chondroitinase ABC digestion prior to antibody reaction is required for antibody reactivity. {0.5U/mL in 100mM Tris-HCL, 30 minutes room temperature} A dramatic proteolytic digestion of the core protein (e.g. with papain or pronase) significantly reduces the antibody reactivity.
Please Note: Optimal dilutions of this antibody should be experimentally determined.

Formulation, Preparation, and Storage

Purification

Unpurified

Formulation

Ascites

No Preservative

Concentration

This product is unpurified. The exact concentration of antibody is not quantifiable.

Shipping

The product is shipped with polar packs. Upon receipt, store it immediately at the temperature recommended below.

Stability & Storage

Aliquot and store at -20C or -80C. Avoid freeze-thaw cycles.

Background: Aggrecan

This aggrecan degradation product usually remains within the tissue still complexed to hyaluronan and link protein. Its release from the cartilage usually signals that there has been extensive catabolism of aggrecan, which allows large complexes containing this metabolite to be released from the tissue.
