General description
Monoclonal Anti-Bovine IgG (mouse IgG1 isotype) is derived from the BG-18 hybridoma, produced by the fusion of mouse myeloma cells and splenocytes from a mouse immunized with the purified bovine IgG.
Immunoglobulin G (IgG) contributes to 10–20% of plasma protein and is regarded as one of the most predominant serum protein. It consists of four subclasses: IgG1, IgG2, IgG3 and IgG4. The IgG structure possesses four polypeptide chains containing two identical γ heavy (H) chains and two identical κ or λ light (L) chains of 50 kDa and 25 kDa, respectively.
The bovine immunoglobulin system closely resembles that of other mammalian species with respect to the physiochemical properties and nomenclature. The main bovine IgG class antibodies are IgG1 and IgG2, which have antigenic differences in the Fc region of the heavy chains.4
Specificity
Monoclonal Anti-Bovine IgG specifically recognizes an epitope on the heavy chain of both bovine IgG1 and IgG2. The antibody shows no cross-reactivity with bovine IgM or IgG from the following species: human, goat, sheep, rabbit, pig, dog, chicken, cat, guinea pig or horse.
Immunogen
Purified bovine IgG
Application
The antibody is recommended to use in various immunological techniques, including ELISA1, Immunohistochemistry2 and Immunobloting3
Biochem/physiol Actions
Different immunoglobulin classes and subclasses (isotypes) perform distinctive effector functions. Therefore, the ability to characterize antibody isotype is fundamental to the analysis of the immune response. The diversity of immunoglobulin isotypes associated with the immunity pattern serves as an indicator indistinguishing the phase of infection with various agents.
Physical form
Supplied as a lyophilized powder.
Storage and Stability
Store the lyophilized product at 2–8 °C. For extended storage after reconstitution, keep at –20 °C in working aliquots. Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles. For continuous use after reconstitution, keep at 2–8 °C for up to 1 month. Solutions at working dilution should be discarded if not used within 12 hours.
