Target

  • Function
    Displays several functions associated with host defense: it promotes agglutination, bacterial capsular swelling, phagocytosis and complement fixation through its calcium-dependent binding to phosphorylcholine. Can interact with DNA and histones and may scavenge nuclear material released from damaged circulating cells.
  • Tissue specificity
    Found in plasma.
  • Sequence similarities
    Belongs to the pentaxin family.
    Contains 1 pentaxin domain.
  • Cellular localization
    Secreted.

    Thank you for your reply. I just wonder if only one antibody binds to one CRP molecule or five antibody binds to one CRP molecule since the CRP molecule is a pentamer containing five identical monomers. Or isthis informationalso confidential?

    Thank you for contacting us.

    I am sorry we do not have any data to confirm how many ab molecules binds to CRP. Theoretically, I agree there is possibility of binding 5 ab molecule per pentamer of CRP however we can't be sure as we do not know ...

    Sorry that I did not include the product codes in the previous email. The product codes for anti-CRP C2 and C6 are ab24461 and ab8278, respectively.

    Thank you

    Thank you for contacting us. Dr. Tanya is out of office today so I am dealing with her inquiries.

    The immunogen for these antibodies is a proprietary information. These antibodies are raised sing full length human CRP protein. The two products...

    Thank you for updating this. My previous order ***.

    Would you please ship it after Aug. 20? I'll not be available next week. I prefer to get it when I'm in the lab.

    Thanks,

    Thank you very much for your reply.

    It will be no problem to ship it after August 20. We are actually expecting to have this antibody in stock by August 27, so it should arrive shortly after that date. The antibody will be arriving free of ch...

    High background using C5 (capture) and C6 (Cy5.5 conjugated detection) antibody in sELISA. Plasma samples and recombinant standards.

    Thank you again for letting us know about the trouble with the CRP antibodies in ELISA.

    We now have the unconjugated C2 clone in our catalog as ab136176, and I'd be happy to send a free of charge vial for your to try.

    Thank you for sharing this with me. It seems that the capturing antibody is biotinylated. That could explain the non-specific issue. It would be nice to get the un-conjugated C2 antibody to test.

    Do you have the protocol for testing blood pl...

    Thank you very much for your reply.

    I agree that the differences in the protocol may be contributing to the background you're experiencing. I'm working with my colleagues to see if we can provide the unconjugated C2, and I will update you as ...

    Hello,   We recently purchased and tested the 500 ug (2mg/ml) ab8278 and were wondering whether or not you sell it in a more concentrated amount/larger lyophilized amount at 2mg/ml.   Thank you.

    Thank you for contacting Abcam. If you wish to place a bulk order I can happily forward your request to in house specialist how deals with these matters. However we generally only do custom batches for larger orders. If you just want to...
