Overview
Cat #: BLP-KR001
Type: Synthetic peptide
Form: Lyophilized powder
KISS1 Receptor/GPR54 (extracellular) Blocking Peptide (#BLP-KR001) is the original antigen used for immunization during Anti-KISS1 Receptor (GPR54) (extracellular) Antibody (#AKR-001) generation. The blocking peptide binds and ‘blocks’ Anti-KISS1 Receptor/GPR54 (extracellular) primary antibody, this makes it a good negative reagent control to help confirm antibody specificity in western blot and immunohistochemistry applications. This control is also often called a pre-adsorption control.
Applications: wb, ihc
Application key:
WB- Western blot, IHC- Immunohistochemistry
For research purposes only. not for human use
Applications
Demonstration of Pre-adsorption control
- Western blot analysis of Jurkat (lanes 1 and 4), HL-60 (lanes 2 and 5), MCF-7 (lanes 3 and 6) and rat brain (lanes 7 and 8) lysates:1,2,3,7. Anti-KISS1 Receptor (GPR54) (extracellular) Antibody (#AKR-001), (1:500).
4,5,6,8. Anti-KISS1 Receptor (GPR54) (extracellular) Antibody, preincubated with KISS1 Receptor/GPR54 (extracellular) Blocking Peptide (#BLP-KR001). - Expression of KISS1R in rat pancreasImmunohistochemical staining of paraffin embedded section of rat pancreas using Anti-KISS1 Receptor (GPR54) (extracellular) Antibody (#AKR-001), (1:100). KISS1R staining (brown) appears in Isles of Langerhans (IL). Hematoxilin is used as the counterstain.
- Expression of KISS1R in rat cerebellumImmunohistochemical staining of frozen rat cerebellum section using Anti-KISS1 Receptor (GPR54) (extracellular) Antibody (#AKR-001), (1:100). A. KISS1R (green) was expressed particularly in Purkinje cell bodies (arrows). B. Staining with mouse anti-parvalbumin (red) detected Purkinje cells and interneurons in the molecular layer. C. Merge of the two images demonstrates that the staining was restricted to Purkinje cells.
