Mouse Anti-Porcine C-Peptide (CP) Monoclonal Antibody
Product Overview
BioVenic mouse monoclonal antibody is specific for porcine C-peptide. It is purified by protein A/G. It can be applied to WB, IHC, ICC and IP assays of porcine C-peptide.
Specifications
Target Information
Porcine C-peptide is a 31-residue, single-chain polypeptide flanked by dibasic cleavage sites within proinsulin, released equimolar with insulin upon prohormone convertase action. The sequence contains a centrally located tyrosine, three cysteines forming one intramolecular disulfide, and an amidated C-terminal lysine that distinguishes it from rodent homologs. Lacking bioactivity, the peptide circulates at low nanomolar concentrations, bound minimally to plasma proteins. Antibodies raised against synthetic porcine C-peptide recognize the intact molecule and its major fragments with negligible cross-reactivity to insulin, proinsulin, or IGF-1, enabling direct measurement in porcine serum, tissue extracts, and culture media.
