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.

    Question

    I am planning to test a C-reactive protein sandwich ELISA assay and was hoping that you could suggest the most suitable antibody pair for this application from your range?


    Also, on your website it lists the molecular weight of the C-Reactive Protein subunit as being 23 kDa, but also states that the protein forms a pentamer in solution. Please can you advise on whether in a solution ELISA assay I would be detecting the subunits alone (23 kDa) or the pentameric form (115000 kDa)?

    Answer


    I have confirmed with the lab and most of our C Reactive Protein antibodies, except C3 and C4, react with both monomer and pentamer form of CRP. (As our clones C3 and C4 do not recognize CRP in the absence of Ca2+ ions, we suggest that they could not recognize CRP monomer, but we have never experimentally tested this.)


    ab10026, Anti-C Reactive Protein antibody [C1]


    ab136176, Anti-C Reactive Protein antibody [C2]


    ab8279, Anti-C Reactive Protein antibody [C5]


    ab24462, Anti-C Reactive Protein antibody [C6] (HRP)


    As pair I can recommend ab24462 and ab8279 to recognize both, monomer and pentamer.

    Question

    Dear technical team,

    Our customer is going to purchase ab24462 as detection antibody of sELISA.
    She would like to receive data that ab8280 or ab8279 used as capture antibody together because she concerns if they are working well.
    Please let me know if you have information.

    Best regards

    Question

    We are currently looking for a good pairing for C-Reactive protein antibodies and wonder if you guys could recommend any pair of antibodies? The antibodies will be used in sandwich ELISA and we are looking for antibodies which are already paired by Abcam for optimal binding and lowest cross reactivity of capture and detection antibody.
    We've noticed that it is recommended to pair antibodies according to their C number, for example C2-C6, C5-C6 and C7-C6, information found on website: https://www.abcam.com/C-Reactive-Protein-antibody-C6-ab8278.html.
    It is best to pair antibodies to their C numbers as mentioned?

    Looking forward to your reply.


    Thanks and regards,

    Answer

    Thank you for contacting us.
    We do not use the terminology C number. These does not depicts any information other the clone numbers for a particular antibody.
    The sELISA pairs we recommend are
    The best pair is C2-C6 (ab24461 detection - ab8278 capture)
    C5-C6 (ab8279 capture - ab24462 detection)
    C7-C6 (ab8280 capture - ab24462 detection)
    Please ab24462 is a HRP conjugated anti C reactive protein antibody; due to the conjugation it will be a good detection antibody.
    I hope this information is helpful to you. Please do not hesitate to contact us if you need any more advice or information.

    Question

    Please could you tell me if these antibodies are influenced in any way by the presence of calcium? Thank you.

    Answer

    Our antibodies to CRP (clones C2 and C6) are strongly specific to CRP molecule and form a unique two-site combination for the development of fast and sensitive CRP assay. Mabs are not sensitive to the presence of Ca2+- binding reagents in the sample and can be used for quantitative CRP detection in EDTA or citrate plasma samples. Additional information can be found from www.hytest.fi.
