Transmissible spongiform encephalopathies (TSEs) or prion diseases are fatal infectious neurodegenerative diseases of humans and animals. These diseases are biologically unique, as they are believed by some to be transmitted by an infectious agent comprised only of protein, with no nucleic acid component. Clinically, these diseases present with motor disturbances and behavioural changes. The major pathological changes seen are neuronal loss, vacuolation (spongiform change), proliferation and branching of glial cells, astrocytic proliferation and accumulation of the prion protein PrPSc, which can form amyloid plaques. CD230. also known as the prion protein (PrP) exists in two alternate forms; a normal cellular form (PrPc) and a disease-associated form (PrPSc).The normal and pathological forms of the prion protein have identical amino acid sequences and differ only in their folded tertiary structure and biochemical properties. This item is specific for PrPSc. This clone does not appear to immunostain the normall cellular PrP expressed in heathly sheep tissue sections resulting in specific labelling of ovine PrPSc. This antibody was raised against a synthetic peptide (146-R154R171-182) of the ovine PrP peptide and specificially recognises the R151-R159 sequence.

Store at 4 degree C or at -20 degree C if preferred. Storage in frost-free freezers is not recommended. This product should be stored undiluted. Avoid repeated freezing and thawing as this may denature the antibody. Should this product contain a precipitate we recommend microcentrifugation before use.
Shelf Life: 18 months from date of despatch.

Small volumes of anti-CD230 antibody vial(s) may occasionally become entrapped in the seal of the product vial during shipment and storage. If necessary, briefly centrifuge the vial on a tabletop centrifuge to dislodge any liquid in the container`s cap. Certain products may require to ship with dry ice and additional dry ice fee may apply.

PRIO_SHEEP

Its primary physiological function is unclear. Has cytoprotective activity against internal or environmental stresses. May play a role in neuronal development and synaptic plasticity. May be required for neuronal myelin sheath maintenance. May play a role in iron uptake and iron homeostasis. Soluble oligomers are toxic to cultured neuroblastoma cells and induce apoptosis (in vitro). Association with GPC1 (via its heparan sulfate chains) targets PRNP to lipid rafts. Also provides Cu2+ or ZN2+ for the ascorbate-mediated GPC1 deaminase degradation of its heparan sulfate side chains ().
