| Antigen | 12-aa peptide from rat Glut-7 (protein accession #S24344; refs 1); Designation (GT72-P, control peptide); conjugated to KLH; Epitope location~ C-terminal, Cytoplasmic domain |
| Form | Antigen/blocking Peptide |
| Product Type | Peptide |
| SpCrossreactivity | Rat GT72 sequence is 63% identical in human Glut-7. However, Glut-7 contains an extra 6 amino acid (KKMKND) at the C-terminal end. This sequence is very similar to the last 6 amino acids of some of the mircosomal UDP-glucoronosyltransferase isoenzymes (see refs. 1 and other refs. Cited therein). The KK-K-- has been considered motif for the retention of transmembrane proteins (3) and is not found in Gluts 1-5. The crossreactivity of anti-rat GT71 antibody to other proteins with an endoplasmic reticulum motif and species crossreactivity has not been determined. |

| SugApplications | Control or blocking peptides are recommended for ELISA plate coating for direct ELISA testing of antibodies or competitive ELISA, and antibody blocking or neutralization. |
