Product Name
AMY | Alpha-amylase
Immunogen
KLH-conjugated synthetic peptide derived from known Oryza sativa P17654
Background
α-Amylases are hydrolytic enzymes responsible for the mobilization of the starch into metabolizable sugars. This process provides the energy for the growth of roots and shoots and is crucial during germination of cereal seeds.These enzymes are coded by a multigene family and even thought other amylolytic enzyme participate in the process of starch breakdown, the contribution of α-amylase is the prerequisite for the initiation of this process.
Confirmed reactivity
Oryza sativa, Panicum virgatum
Predicted reactivity
Cereals, Hordeum vulgare, Kalanchoe laxiflora
Not reactive in
Pinus strobus
Reconstitution
For reconstitution add 100 µl of sterile water
Expected/apparent MW
43-48 kDa (depending upon the isoform)
Tested applications
Western blot (WB)
Recommended dilution
1 : 5000 (WB)
Storage
Store lyophilized/reconstituted at -20°C; once reconstituted make aliquots to avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles. Please remember to spin the tubes briefly prior to opening them to avoid any losses that might occur from material adhering to the cap or sides of the tube.
