Further dilutions can be made in assay buffer.
Other Notes
Small volumes of anti-AICDA 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.
Related Product Information for
anti-AICDA antibody
Activation-induced cytidine deaminase (AID) was initially discovered as a homolog of the apolipoprotein B RNAediting cytidine deaminase 1 (APOBEC1) that showed cytidine deaminase properties in stimulated B cell lines (1). It is necessary for somatic hypermutation and class switch recombination in B cells (2), but inappropriate or dysregulated expression AID is often found in tumors and B cell neoplasms (2,3). Although it is structurally and functionally similar to the APOBEC proteins (reviewed in 4), it appears unlikely that AID deaminates dC to dU residues in HIV cDNA as does APOBEC3G (5).

NCBI Summary for AICDA
This gene encodes a RNA-editing deaminase that is a member of the cytidine deaminase family. The protein is involved in somatic hypermutation, gene conversion, and class-switch recombination of immunoglobulin genes. Defects in this gene are the cause of autosomal recessive hyper-IgM immunodeficiency syndrome type 2 (HIGM2). [provided by RefSeq]
