Anti SQSTM1/A170/p62, Rabbit
Wako Cat. No. 018-22141 (100 µL) <for Immunochemistry>
Keep at -20℃
Sequestosome 1 (SQSTM1) / A170 (mouse) / p62 (human) / ZIP (rat), a ubiquitin-binding protein, expresses oxidative stress-dependently.Abnormality of SQSTM1 leads to bone metabolic disorder, obesity and Type II diabetes. SQSTM1 was reported to bind LC3, which regulates autophagosome formation. The protein has attracted the attention of researchers because it is believed to induce a protein from ubiquitinproteosome system (UPS) to lysosome-dependent macroautophagy (autophagy) system, which are two major intracellular pathways for protein degradation.
Wako has launched the mouse SQSTM1 (A170) rabbit antiserum, which is applicable to Western blot, immunohistochemistry and immunofl uorescence.

Research for NO
Anti soluble Guanylate Cyclase (sGC), MAb (Clone: mAB3221)
Wako Catalog No. 019-17801 (20 µg (40 µL)) <for Immunochemistry>
Keep at -20℃
Soluble guanylate cyclase (sGC), a hemoprotein, is the primary nitric oxide (NO) receptor in higher eukaryotes that catalyzes the conversion of guanosine 5'-triphosphate (GTP) to 3,5'-cyclic guanosine monophosphate (cGMP) and pyrophosphate (PPi) in the presence of Mg2+. The binding of NO to sGC leads to a several hundred-fold increase in cGMP synthesis.

Prepared from culture supernatant and prepared in glycine-Tris solution (pH 7.4). Contains
no preservatives and stabilizers.
Isotype: IgG1
Specifi cally reacts with rat, bovine and human sGC, and strengthens in the reactivity on activation of sGC by NO, probably, due to the conformational changes of the enzyme and its associated antibody-antigen complex.
Working Dilution :
Westernblot 1 : 5,000 ; Immunofl uorescence 1 : 250
