Anti-RA | Rubisco activase

• Background:

  RA- Ribulose bisphosphate carboxylase/oxygenase activase is an enzyme localized to chloroplasts which activates Rubisco by promoting ATP-dependent conformational changes. Alternative name: RuBisCo activase RCA.

• Host:

  Rabbit

  Arabidopsis thaliana, Camelina sativa,Chlamydomonas reinhardtii, Caesalpinia pulcherrima, Hordeum spontaneum, Festuca pratensis, Glycine max, Gossypium hirsutum, Gossypium barbadense, Kalanchoë fedtschenkoi, Lolium perenne, Nannochloropsis oceanica, Nicotiana tabacum,Oryza sativa,Populus balsamifera, Rhoeo discolor, Solanum lycopersicum, Zea mays, Thellungiella salsuginea,red sulfur bacteriumThiodictyonsp. Cad16 (isolated from Lake Cadagno)

• Immunogen:

  Purified, recombinant Rubisco activase fromGossypium hirsutumQ9AXG1

• Clonality:

  Polyclonal

• Applications:

  Western blot (WB)

• Dilution:

  1 : 5000-1 : 10 000 (WB)

• Purity:

  Serum

• Format:

  Lyophilized

• Reconstitution:

  For reconstitution add 50 µl of sterile water

• Molecular Weight:

  47 and 42 kDa (maize, tobacco,Chlamydomonas)

• Precautions:

  There are two forms of activase (alpha and beta) in some species (for example Arabidopsis, camelina, spinach, rice) and only one form in other species (tobacco, maize,Chlamydomonas). Alpha is about 46-47 Kda, beta is about 42 kDa. Species that have only one form have the beta form.This product can be sold containing ProClin if requested
