Anti-Caveolin-1 Antibody

This recombinant rabbit monoclonal antibody from Antibodies.com targets Caveolin-1, the principal scaffolding protein of caveolae, which are specialized flask-shaped invaginations of the plasma membrane that organize endocytosis, lipid transport, and signal transduction at the cell surface. The unconjugated reagent is supplied as 100 µl of antibody in TBS (pH 7.4) with 1% BSA, 40% glycerol, and 0.05% sodium azide as preservative, ready to use in western blot, immunocytochemistry/immunofluorescence, and immunohistochemistry workflows on human specimens.

Caveolin-1 is widely investigated as a marker of caveolar membranes in studies of cancer, vascular biology, and metabolic disease, where researchers use this clone to localize caveolae in fixed cells and tissue sections, to confirm protein abundance by western blot, and to compare membrane-enriched and cytosolic fractions. Short-term store refrigerated; aliquot on arrival to limit repeated freeze-thaw cycles and preserve binding activity across multiple experiments.
