Product Name
Albumin protein (Biotin)
Catalog Number
GTX28033
Product Description:
Albumin ( human ) protein ( biotin )
Application Note:
Immunoblotting, ELISA, immunohistochemistry, immunomicroscopy as well as other antibody based assays using streptavidin or avidin conjugates.
Background:
Serum albumin, a globular unglycosylated protein of molecular weight 65 kDa, is the main protein of plasma, has a good binding capacity for water, Ca2+, Na+, K+, fatty acids, hormones, bilirubin and drugs. Its main function is the regulation of the colloidal osmotic pressure of blood. Albumin is synthesized in the liver as preproalbumin, which has an N-terminal peptide that is removed before the nascent protein is released from the rough endoplasmic reticulum. The product, proalbumin, is in turn cleaved in the Golgi vesicles to give the secreted albumin.
