Rabbit anti-FKBP5/FKBP51 Antibody Affinity Purified
Product Details
Specifications
The epitope recognized by A301-430A maps to a region between residue 407 and 457 of human FK506 binding protein 5 (51 kDa FK506-binding protein) using the numbering given in entry NP_004108.1 (GeneID 2289).
Immunoglobulin concentration was determined using Beer’s Law where 1mg/mL IgG has an A280 of 1.4. Antibody was affinity purified using an epitope specific to FKBP5/FKBP51 immobilized on solid support.
The epitope recognized by A301-430A-T maps to a region between residue 407 and 457 of human FK506 binding protein 5 (51 kDa FK506-binding protein) using the numbering given in entry NP_004108.1 (GeneID 2289).
Additional Product Information
FKBP5/FKBP51 is an immunophilin and target of FK506, a macrolide immunosuppressive drug derived from Streptomyces tsukubaensis. Like other FK506 binding proteins, FKBP5/FKBP51 exhibits peptidyl-prolyl cis-trans isomerase activity. The most studied role of FKBP5/FKBP51 surrounds its involvement in the regulation of steroid receptor signaling. In association with the molecular chaperones Hsp90 and Hsp70, FKBP5/FKBP51 is able to influence steroid-hormone binding affinity and transcriptional activity. Recently, FKBP5/FKBP51 has become of interest in the field of psychiatry due to its potential role in cortisol regulation and its relation to mood disorders.
