Anti-ALDH8A1 Antibody

ALDH8A1, also called aldehyde dehydrogenase 8A1, belongs to the aldehyde dehydrogenase superfamily and catalyzes NAD+-dependent oxidation of 9-cis-retinal to 9-cis-retinoic acid, contributing to retinoic acid biosynthesis. This unconjugated rabbit polyclonal reagent from Antibodies.com is supplied as 100 µl of IgG antiserum validated for western blot detection of the human and mouse target protein. Researchers use the antibody to probe ALDH8A1 expression in tissue lysates and cell lines, supporting studies in retinoic acid signaling, xenobiotic metabolism, and tumor biology where altered aldehyde processing has been documented. The polyclonal format provides epitope diversity for recognition of multiple regions of the antigen, which is helpful when characterizing isoforms or working with partially denatured samples. The unconjugated IgG preparation is compatible with standard secondary antibody-based detection systems, including HRP chemiluminescence and common fluorescence workflows, allowing flexible integration into existing immunoblotting protocols.
