Product Specific Information

This product is preservative free. It is recommended to add sodium azide to avoid contamination (final concentration 0.05%-0.1%).

Recombinant rabbit monoclonal antibodies are produced using in vitro expression systems. The expression systems are developed by cloning in the specific antibody DNA sequences from immunoreactive rabbits. Then, individual clones are screened to select the best candidates for production. The advantages of using recombinant rabbit monoclonal antibodies include: better specificity and sensitivity, lot-to-lot consistency, animal origin-free formulations, and broader immunoreactivity to diverse targets due to larger rabbit immune repertoire.

This antibody has specificity for Human PSG1/PS-beta-G-1.

Target Information

Human pregnancy-specific glycoproteins (PSG), are a group of closely related secreted glycoproteins which are highly expressed in placental syncytiotrophoblast cells of fetal origin. PSG are commonly expressed in tumors of trophoblast origin (hydatidiform mole, choriocarcinoma). They represent the most abundant fetal protein in the maternal blood at term. The eleven human PSG genes (PSG1-PSG11) form together with the carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA)-related cell adhesion molecule (CEACAM) genes the CEACAM gene family. PSG stimulates secretion of TH2-type cytokines from monocytes. CD9 was shown to represent the monocyte receptor for murine PSG17. PSG are thought to modulate the maternal immune system during pregnancy thus protecting the semiallotypic fetus from rejection.
