uniprot entry name :
GLHA_HUMAN
clone :
[F1 (BGN/F62/01)]
specificity :
Mouse anti Human FSH alpha antibody, clone F1 (BGN/F62/01) detects the alpha subunit of Follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH alpha). FSH is secreted by the pituitary, and is a member of the glycoprotein hormone family which includes Human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG), Luteinizing hormone (LH), and Thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH). These hormones are all structurally related and contain a common alpha subunit non-covalently bound to a hormone specific beta subunit, which determines receptor specificity. Both of the subunits are necessary for hormone action.
form :
Biotin. Purified IgG conjugated to Biotin - liquid
concentration :
Approximate Protein Concentration: 1.0mg/ml
storage stability :
Store at 4 degree C or at -20 degree C if preferred. Storage in frost-free freezers is not recommended. This product should be stored undiluted. Avoid repeated freezing and thawing as this may denature the antibody. Should this product contain a precipitate we recommend microcentrifugation before use. Shelf Life: 18 months from date of despatch.
tested application :
ELISA (EIA)
app notes :
ELISA: Minimum Dilution: 1/100; Maximum Dilution: 1/1000
other info1 :
Perservative Stabilisers: 0.09% Sodium Azide (NaN3). Preparation: Purified IgG prepared by affinity chromatography on Protein A from tissue culture supernatant
other info2 :
Immunogen: Native. Buffer Solution: Phosphate buffered saline. Target Species: Human

ncbi summary :
The four human glycoprotein hormones chorionic gonadotropin (CG), luteinizing hormone (LH), follicle stimulating hormone (FSH), and thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH) are dimers consisting of alpha and beta subunits that are associated noncovalently. The alpha subunits of these hormones are identical, however, their beta chains are unique and confer biological specificity. The protein encoded by this gene is the alpha subunit and belongs to the glycoprotein hormones alpha chain family. Two transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene.
