Estimated Lead Time1-2 business days
SpeciesHuman
Accession Number
NP_536741
ClonalityPolyclonal
Immunogen
Immunogen is a synthetic peptide derived from Drosophila Neuropeptide F. This antibody was produced from a rabbit immunized with the immunogen. The IgG fraction was purified from rabbit serum by ammonium sulphate precipitation, and followed by Protein A/G affinity chromatography.
Immunogen Sequence
CSNSRPPRKNDVNTMADAYKFLQDLDTYYGDRARVRF
Recommended ApplicationsELISA (recommended work dilution= 1: 1, 000-5, 000)
Reconstitution
Antibody is supplied lyophilized originally containing PBS without preservative stabilizers. The antibody is stable for at least a year from the date of receipt when stored at -20°C to -70°C. Reconstituted antibody (recommended with H20 1 mg/ml) can also be aliquoted and stored frozen at -20°C to -70°C in a manual defrost freezer for months without detectable loss activity. Upon reconstitution, the antibody may also be stored for months at 4°C.

Storage-20°C

Description

Description

Drosophila has a similar signaling system as other species do. The system consists of neurons expressing neuropeptide F (NPF) and its receptor, NPFR. NPF has high homology with mammalian neuropeptide Y. The NPF neural system is comprised of four to six NPF neurons located in the brain and subesophageal ganglia. In response to chemosensory stimulation by sugar, the NPF neuronal circuit undergoes long-term, dose-dependent modifications through NPF activation and an increase in the number of NPF -positive varicosities. These properties of the NPF neurons support its potential role in the regulation of food-related behaviors.
The receptor belongs to the G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) superfamily. To date, some forty GPCRs are categorized as neuropeptide GPCRs in Drosophila, and about two-thirds of these receptors have been “deorphanized”.

Specificity

The rabbit anti-Drosophila Neuropeptide F antibody shows strong binding to the synthetic immunogen. Its binding activity to native protein or cross reactivity with the protein derived from other species was not tested.

Storage

Store at 4°C if intended for use within a month, otherwise store at -20°C. Minimize freeze-thaw cycles.
