Product Notices

  1. Since applications vary, each investigator should titrate the reagent to obtain optimal results.
  2. Caution: Sodium azide yields highly toxic hydrazoic acid under acidic conditions. Dilute azide compounds in running water before discarding to avoid accumulation of potentially explosive deposits in plumbing.
  3. Source of all serum proteins is from USDA inspected abattoirs located in the United States.

8/Ral A

Ral is a low molecular weight GTP-binding protein belonging to the Ras superfamily of GTP-binding proteins and shows 50% amino acid identity to Ras. Ral cDNA clones have been isolated from human placenta, human pheochromocytoma, simian ß-lymphocyte, and marine ray electric lobe cDNA libraries. In humans, cDNA sequences for Ral A and RalB have been determined. The predicted amino acid sequences show 85% identity. Both proteins consist of 206 amino acids with a predicted molecular weight of 24kDa. However, Ral A isolated from human platelets shows an apparent molecular weight of 26-28kDa. Ral A mRNA levels in adult mouse tissues appear to be highest in testes, ovary, and brain, with lower levels found in the liver, spleen, kidney, thymus, heart, and salivary glands. Similar results have been observed in rat tissues.

Purified
Tissue culture supernatant is purified by either protein A/G or affinity purification methods. Both methods yield antibody in solution that is free of most other soluble proteins, lipids, etc. This format provides pure antibody that is suitable for a number of downstream applications including: secondary labeling for flow cytometry or microscopy, ELISA, Western blot, etc.
