Scientific Data Images for Human PLTP Antibody

Detection of human PLTP antibody by Western Blot.

Detection of human PLTP by Western Blot.

Western blot shows lysates of human liver tissue. PVDF membrane was probed with 1 µg/mL of Sheep Anti-Human PLTP Antigen Affinity-purified Polyclonal Antibody (Catalog # AF5109) followed by HRP-conjugated Anti-Sheep IgG Secondary Antibody (Catalog # HAF016). A specific band was detected for PLTP at approximately 60 kDa (as indicated). This experiment was conducted under reducing conditions and using Immunoblot Buffer Group 1.
Western Blot Shows Human PLTP Antibody Specificity by Using Knockout Cell Line.

Western Blot Shows Human PLTP Specificity by Using Knockout Cell Line.

Western blot shows lysates of HeLa human cervical epithelial carcinoma parental cell line and PLTP knockout HeLa cell line (KO). PVDF membrane was probed with 1 µg/mL of Sheep Anti-Human PLTP Antigen Affinity-purified Polyclonal Antibody (Catalog # AF5109) followed by HRP-conjugated Anti-Sheep IgG Secondary Antibody (Catalog # HAF016). A specific band was detected for PLTP at approximately 75 kDa (as indicated) in the parental HeLa cell line, but is not detectable in knockout HeLa cell line. GAPDH (Catalog # AF5718) is shown as a loading control. This experiment was conducted under reducing conditions and using Immunoblot Buffer Group 1.

Background: PLTP

PLTP (phospholipid transfer protein) is a 75-81 kDa, secreted glycoprotein member of the BPI/LBP family of proteins. It is expressed by multiple cell types, circulates bound to HDL, and mediates the transfer of phospholipids and cholesterol from apoB-containing lipoproteins to HDL. Mature human PLTP is 476 amino acids (aa) in length. It contains an N-terminal lipid transfer domain and a C-terminal HDL-binding domain; there is one essential intrachain disulfide bond (Cys146-Cys185). There are four potential PLTP splice variants. Two show alternate start sites at Met21 and Met89. Two others demonstrate aa substitutions; one shows a one aa (Lys) substitution for aa 110-162, and a second shows a four aa substitution for the N-terminal 35 amino acids. Over aa 18-493, human PLTP shares 92% and 83% aa identity with porcine and mouse PLTP, respectively.
