Scientific Data Images for Mouse alpha1-Acid Glycoprotein Antibody

Detection of Mouse a1-Acid Glycoprotein antibody by Western Blot.

Detection of Mouse alpha1-Acid Glycoprotein by Western Blot.

Western blot shows lysates of mouse liver tissue. PVDF membrane was probed with 1 µg/mL of Mouse a1-Acid Glycoprotein Antigen Affinity-purified Polyclonal Antibody (Catalog # AF5934) followed by HRP-conjugated Anti-Sheep IgG Secondary Antibody (Catalog # HAF016). A specific band was detected for a1-Acid Glycoprotein at approximately 43kDa (as indicated). This experiment was conducted under reducing conditions and using Immunoblot Buffer Group 8.

Background: alpha 1-Acid Glycoprotein

alpha1-Acid Glycoprotein (AGP; also OMD/Orosomucoid) is a 40‑46 kDa member of the immunocalin subfamily, lipocalin family of molecules. In mouse, circulating AGP is principally the product of hepatocytes that originates from multiple related genes (AGP-1, -2 & -3 in Mus musculus). Circulating AGP-1 and -2 are both 189 amino acids (aa) in length, the principal sources of protein, and show 83% aa identity; AGP-3 contributes little to the AGP pool. In mouse blood, AGP is normally 200‑400 μg/mL. In response to inflammatory mediators (IL-6; IL-1), its concentration will rise 2 to 10 fold. More importantly, a complex glycosylation pattern will also change, transitioning from modestly branched to highly branched oligosaccharides. This change is reflected in its bioactivity, which has been shown to be a function of carbohydrate branching. AGP is generally considered to be a suppressor of inflammation. Rat and human AGP share only 70% and 47% aa identity with mouse AGP, respectively.
