ABS 026-05-02 detects CGRP alpha in human and rat samples. ABS 026-05-02 binds human alpha-CGRP. Based on inhibition ELISA, this antibody shows full cross-reactivity with rat alpha-CGRP and about about 50% cross-reactivity with human beta-CGRP. Cross-reactivity with coated rat alpha-CGRP is low (8%) and there is no cross-reaction with human amylin.
ABS 026-05-02 has been successfully used in ELISA and immunohistochemistry procedures.
This gene encodes the peptide hormones calcitonin, calcitonin gene-related peptide and katacalcin by tissue-specific alternative RNA splicing of the gene transcripts and cleavage of inactive precursor proteins. Calcitonin is involved in calcium regulation and acts to regulate phosphorus metabolism. Calcitonin gene-related peptide functions as a vasodilator while katacalcin is a calcium-lowering peptide. Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene.
