Catalogue number
ANT-696
Synonyms
BTB/POZ domain-containing protein KCTD15, Potassium channel tetramerisation domain containing 15, KCTD15, MGC2628, MGC25497.
Type
Mouse Anti Human Monoclonal.
Introduction
KCTD15 protein is encoded in humans by the KCTD15 gene. KCTD15 is expressed at a high level in the brain and the hypothalamus. The potassium channel KCTD15 was identified as a genetic loci linked to higher than normal BMI in humans along with genes such as GNPDA2, MTCH2, FTO, and TMEM18. SNPs (Single nucleotide polymorphisms) in non-diabetic and diabetic patients showed that FTO was most strongly associated with obesity while MTCH2 and GNPDA2 were still notably associated with higher than normal BMI levels.
Clone
Immunogen
Anti-human KCTD15 mAb, is derived from hybridization of mouse F0 myeloma cells with spleen cells from BALB/c mice immunized with a recombinant human KCTD15 protein 1-159 amino acids purified from E. coli.
Ig Subclass
Mouse IgG2b heavy chain and k light chain.
Purification Method
KCTD15 antibody was purified from mouse ascitic fluids by protein-G affinity chromatography.
Formulation
1mg/ml containing PBS, pH-7.4, 10% Glycerol and 0.02% Sodium Azide.
Storage Procedures
For periods up to 1 month store at 4°C, for longer periods of time, store at -20°C. Prevent freeze thaw cycles.
Stability / Shelf Life
