CRYBA4 Antibody

Rabbit Ig

Store at 4˚ C for three months and -20˚ C, stable for up to one year. As with all antibodies care should be taken to avoid repeated freeze thaw cycles. Antibodies should not be exposed to prolonged high temperatures.

Crystallins are separated into two classes:
taxon-specific, or enzyme, and ubiquitous. The latter class
constitutes the major proteins of vertebrate eye lens and maintains
the transparency and refractive index of the lens. Since lens
central fiber cells lose their nuclei during development, these
crystallins are made and then retained throughout life, making them
extremely stable proteins. Mammalian lens crystallins are divided
into alpha, beta, and gamma families; beta and gamma crystallins
are also considered as a superfamily. Alpha and beta families are
further divided into acidic and basic groups. Seven protein regions
exist in crystallins: four homologous motifs, a connecting peptide,
and N- and C-terminal extensions. Beta-crystallins, the most
heterogeneous, differ by the presence of the C-terminal extension
(present in the basic group, none in the acidic group).
Beta-crystallins form aggregates of different sizes and are able to
self-associate to form dimers or to form heterodimers with other
beta-crystallins. This gene, a beta acidic group member, is part of
a gene cluster with beta-B1, beta-B2, and beta-B3. [provided by

None

This antibody is purified through a protein A column, followed by peptide affinity purification.

Supplied in PBS with 0.09% (W/V) sodium azide.

This CRYBA4 antibody is generated from rabbits immunized with a KLH conjugated synthetic peptide between 98-127 amino acids from the C-terminal region of human CRYBA4.
