Anti-SLC28A1 Antibody

This unconjugated rabbit polyclonal antibody targets SLC28A1, the sodium-dependent pyrimidine-selective nucleoside transporter (CNT1) responsible for active cellular uptake of pyrimidine nucleosides and therapeutic nucleoside analogs. Supplied by Antibodies.com at 1 mg/ml in PBS with 0.1% sodium azide and 50% glycerol as a cryoprotectant, the reagent is validated for Western blot detection of the human, mouse, and rat proteins. The 100 µl vial provides enough volume for dozens of mini-blot experiments at standard working dilutions, and the polyclonal format allows recognition of multiple epitopes on the transporter, which is useful when probing expression changes across tissues or transfected cell models. Researchers investigating nucleoside transport kinetics, membrane transporter expression in epithelial and renal barriers, drug uptake of antiviral or anticancer nucleoside analogs, and pharmacokinetic profiling can pair this primary antibody with HRP- or fluorescent-conjugated secondary reagents. For long-term use, storage at -20 °C and aliquoting upon first thaw minimizes freeze-thaw cycles and preserves antibody activity across repeated Western blot workflows.
