Anti-APOBEC3C Antibody

Polyclonal rabbit antibody targeting APOBEC3C, a cytidine deaminase in the APOBEC family that contributes to innate immune restriction of viral replication and editing of nucleic acid substrates. The Antibodies.com reagent is supplied unconjugated at 1 mg/ml in phosphate buffered saline containing 15 mM sodium azide (pH ~7.2), giving researchers flexibility to pair the primary with their own HRP, biotin, or fluorophore-conjugated secondary reagents. Each vial delivers 100 µl of antibody for Western blot and immunohistochemistry on human and rat tissue or cell samples. For routine handling, refrigerate the vial at 4 degrees C; for longer-term storage, aliquot and freeze at -20 degrees C, avoiding repeated freeze-thaw cycles to preserve activity. Investigators studying retroviral restriction, DNA/RNA editing, or comparative APOBEC family expression use this polyclonal reagent to detect endogenous APOBEC3C in cell lysates and formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded sections.
