AQP2 Antibody Description

Background Aquaporins are membrane proteins that serve in the transfer of water and small solutes across cellular membranes. One such aquaporin, aquaporin-2 (AQP2) is located in the kidney collecting tubule and plays a critical role in water reabsorbtion (1). AQP2 is mainly localized in intracellular vesicles but upon stimulation with anti-diuretic hormone (ADH), AQP2 is translocated to the apical plasma membrane by exocytic fusion of AQP2-bearing vesicles (2). Mutations in this gene have been linked to autosomal dominant and recessive forms of nephrogenic diabetes insipidus (3). Synonyms AQP2 Antibody, AQP-CD, WCH-CD, Aquaporin-2, ADH water channel, AQP-2 Immunogen Anti-AQP2 antibody was prepared from whole rabbit serum produced by repeated immunizations with a 19 amino acid peptide near the C-terminus of human AQP2. Immunogen Type Peptide Storage Condition Store vial at -20° C prior to opening. Aliquot contents and freeze at -20° C or below for extended storage. Avoid cycles of freezing and thawing. Centrifuge product if not completely clear after standing at room temperature. This product is stable for several weeks at 4° C as an undiluted liquid. Dilute only prior to immediate use. Application Note Anti-AQP2 Antibody has been tested for use in ELISA, Western Blotting, Immunohistochemistry and Immunofluorescence. Specific conditions for reactivity should be optimized by the end user. Expect a band at approximately 29 kDa in Western Blots of specific cell lysates and tissues. Purity/Specifity Anti-AQP2 antibody was affinity purified from monospecific antiserum by immunoaffinity chromatography. AQP2 antibody is human, mouse and rat reactive. This antibody is predicted to not cross-react with other members of the aquaporin protein family.
