Life Technologies' oligoclonal antibodies are a pool of monoclonal rabbit IgG antibodies targeted against a specific antigen. Oligoclonal antibodies are produced by transfection of mammalian cells with heavy and light chain antibody cDNAs. This provides you with the highest consistency between lots, eliminating the need to revalidate your assays for each lot.
Oligoclonal Antibody Advantages Include:
- Superior lot-to-lot consistency
- Extremely high specificity and sensitivity
The paired-like homeodomain transcription factor-3 (PiTX3) is a member of the homeodomain family of DNA binding proteins known as the RIEG/PITX homeobox gene family, which includes PiTX1, PiTX2 and PiTX3. PiTX3 is associated with early ocular development and is later expressed in other organs and limbs. PiTX3 is expressed in the eyes (specifically the developing lens), and has a highly restricted expression pattern in the brain. It contributes to the regulation of TH expression in mesDA. The degeneration of mesDA is the cause of Parkinson's disease (PD) and results in striatial dopamine deficiency and hypokinetic movement disorder. Mutations of the PiTX3 gene have been associated with anterior segment dysgenesis and a familial form of congenital cataracts.
Obtain More Reliable Data
The proprietary recombinant technology employed in the production of Life Technologies' oligoclonal antibodies means you are assured of the greatest degree of reliability. Staining of nonspecific proteins is virtually eliminated while very high sensitivity is achieved.
Detect Low Levels of Target Protein
Life Technologies' oligoclonal antibodies demonstrate much higher sensitivity than ordinary antibodies. Proteins expressed in low levels can be detected with high specificity allowing you to use less of your precious samples than with ordinary antibodies.
Recombinant Rabbit IgG-Use Like Any Other IgG Antibody
As with traditional IgG antibodies, gel electrophoresis of rabbit oligoclonal antibodies produces a 150 kDa band under non-reducing conditions and 50 kDa and 25 kDa bands under reducing conditions.
