Anti-OSTM1 Antibody

Produced in rabbit as a polyclonal IgG preparation, this unconjugated primary antibody recognizes human OSTM1 (Osteopetrosis-associated transmembrane protein 1), a transmembrane protein linked to osteoclast function and to autosomal recessive osteopetrosis. The reagent is supplied by Antibodies.com as a 100 µL liquid aliquot intended for western blot workflows, supporting detection of endogenous OSTM1 from human cell or tissue lysates. Researchers investigating bone resorption, osteoclast biology, or the CLC-7 chloride channel complex — for which OSTM1 acts as a critical beta-subunit chaperone — apply the reagent to standard immunoblotting protocols on whole-cell extracts.

Storage and handling: keep the vial refrigerated for short-term use and frozen for long-term retention, with aliquoting recommended to limit freeze-thaw cycles across repeated western blot experiments. The unconjugated IgG format allows downstream pairing with HRP- or fluorophore-conjugated secondary reagents when probing membranes for the expected band pattern in human samples.
