Anti-CD59 Antibody

From Antibodies.com, this rabbit polyclonal reagent is raised against CD59, a glycosylphosphatidylinositol-anchored complement regulatory protein that protects host cells from lysis by the membrane attack complex. The antibody is supplied as a 50 µL liquid formulation at 1 mg/mL in PBS containing 50% glycerol, 0.5% BSA and 0.02% sodium azide, and is unconjugated for maximum flexibility in downstream labelling workflows. The immunogen is a synthetic peptide derived from the internal region of human CD59, and the reagent has been affinity-purified from rabbit antiserum by epitope-specific affinity chromatography to enrich for target-specific immunoglobulins. Validated applications include Western blotting and ELISA, with reactivity confirmed against human CD59. For handling, the vial is shipped at 4 °C and should be aliquoted and stored at –20 °C upon arrival, avoiding repeated freeze/thaw cycles to preserve antibody activity. The product is intended for research use only and is not approved for diagnostic or therapeutic applications, making it well suited for academic and industrial studies of complement-mediated signalling and CD59-associated pathologies.
