Anti-CUTC Rabbit Polyclonal Antibody

Supplier: BIOSS INC

Copper is an essential micronutrient used as a co-factor for several essential enzymes in all living organisms. Due to the high toxicity of copper, its metabolism is tightly regulated and defects in this regulation can cause Menkes (deficiency) or Wilson (accumulation) disease in various tissue. CUTC (cutC copper transporter homolog (E. coli)), also known as CGI-32, is a 273 amino acid protein belonging to the cutC family. CUTC is involved in copper homeostasis and is encoded by a gene located on human chromosome 10, which contains over 800 genes and 135 million nucleotides. PTEN is an important tumor suppressor gene located on chromosome 10 and, when defective, causes a genetic predisposition to cancer development known as Cowden syndrome. Other chromosome 10 associated disorders include Cockayne syndrome, tetrahydrobiopterin deficiency and trisomy 10.

Syringe filters,  Minisart® CE

Syringe filters, Minisart® CE

Supplier: Sartorius

Elimination of particles from samples prior to HPLC or other chromatographic analysis is essential in order to maintain the integrity of the chromatography column and to maximise its operating life time. Minisart® syringe filters optimised for sample preparation consist of a polypropylene (PP) housing and membrane components featuring maximum chemical compatibility and minimum extractables to ensure excellent results. Due to the typical range of volumes from less than 1 ml to 100 ml these filters are available in three different diameters with an effective filtration area of 0,12, 1,7 and 4,8 cm².

Anti-TSH Rabbit Polyclonal Antibody (Alexa Fluor® 647)

Supplier: BIOSS INC

Thyroid stimulating hormone, also known as thyrotropin, is secreted from cells in the anterior pituitary called thyrotrophs, finds its receptors on epithelial cells in the thyroid gland, and stimulates that gland to synthesize and release thyroid hormones. TSH is a glycoprotein hormone composed of two subunits which are non covalently bound to one another. The alpha subunit of TSH is also present in two other pituitary glycoprotein hormones, follicle stimulating hormone and luteinizing hormone, and, in primates, in the placental hormone chorionic gonadotropin. Each of these hormones also has a unique beta subunit, which provides receptor specificity. In other words, TSH is composed of alpha subunit bound to the TSH beta subunit, and TSH associates only with its own receptor. Free alpha and beta subunits have essentially no biological activity.

Anti-H2BFWT Rabbit Polyclonal Antibody (HRP)

Supplier: BIOSS INC

H2BFWT (H2B histone family member W testis-specific) is a 175 amino acid nuclear membrane histone that belongs to the histone H2B family. In contrast to most H2B histones, H2BFWT does not contain the conserved C-terminal residue involved in monoubiquitination, but is structurally indistinguishable from conventional H2B histones. Also varying from other H2B histones, H2BFWT does not participate in the recruitment of chromosome condensation factors or in the assembly of mitotic chromsomes. Expressed in testis, H2BFWT is present in sperm cells and may be essential to telomere function.
