Product details

Mouse Prealbumin Antibody Pair is a matched pair of unconjugated recombinant rabbit monoclonal capture and detection antibodies used to quantify Mouse Prealbumin in sandwich ELISAs and many other pair-based applications.

Patented technology
Our RabMAb® technology is a patented hybridoma-based technology for making rabbit monoclonal antibodies. For details on our patents, please refer to RabMAb® patents.

Use our conjugation kits for antibody conjugates that are ready-to-use in as little as 20 minutes with <1 minute hands-on-time and 100% antibody recovery: available for fluorescent dyes, HRP, biotin and gold.

The pair can be used in variety of assays and platforms including but not limited to:

  • Sandwich ELISA
  • FRET/TR-FRET/HTRF
  • Meso Scale Discovery® (MSD®)
  • Bead-based assays
  • AlphaLISA®/AlphaScreen®
  • DELFIA® immunoassays
  • Simoa® and Single Molecule Counting (SMC™) immunoassays
  • Multiplex

Our antibody pairs are supplied in a carrier-free format that is conjugation-ready:

  • Buffer free of BSA, sodium azide, and glycerol for higher conjugation efficiency.
  • Concentration of ~1 mg/ml as measured by the protein A280 method.

We can label antibodies for you: get in touch today to discuss how we can help accelerate your assay development with custom conjugation services.

Pairs are screened in biological samples, including plasma and serum, to ensure specificity in complex samples.

Please note:

The recommended antibody orientation is based on internal optimization in sandwich ELISA. Antibody orientation is assay dependent and needs to be optimized for each assay type.

The range provided for this antibody pair is based on initial sandwich ELISA validation data using recombinant protein. Performance and range of the antibody pair will depend on the specific characteristics of your assay, including standard protein selection.

We guarantee the product works in sandwich ELISA, but we do not guarantee the sensitivity or dynamic range of the antibodies in other assays.

Supplementary information

Prealbumin also known as transthyretin is a protein with a molecular mass of approximately 55 kDa. The liver primarily synthesizes prealbumin and it is present in the bloodstream. Functionally prealbumin transports thyroxine and retinol-binding protein-retinol complex facilitating the distribution of these molecules to target tissues. As such it plays an integral role in maintaining retinol and thyroid hormone homeostasis.
Biological function summary

Prealbumin interacts with retinol-binding protein to form a complex essential for vitamin A transportation. This complex prevents renal filtration of retinol-binding protein thereby conserving vitamin A in circulation. The protein's role extends beyond transport as it influences neurophysiological processes due to its ability to bind thyroid hormones and affect gene expression related to metabolism. Prealbumin is primarily a part of the thyroxine-transferring complex reinforcing its critical position in hormonal and vitamin dynamics.

Pathways

Prealbumin's role in the thyroxine-binding globulin pathway highlights its importance in the endocrine system. Another pathway where prealbumin contributes significantly is the vitamin A metabolic pathway. In these pathways prealbumin maintains functional relationships with proteins like retinol-binding protein and thyroxine-binding globulin which jointly modulate thyroid hormone transport and vitamin A dynamics across cellular membranes.

Prealbumin directly associates with familial amyloid polyneuropathy and malnutrition. Familial amyloid polyneuropathy involves the deposition of prealbumin-derived amyloid fibrils in peripheral nerves impacting neuron function. In malnutrition decreased prealbumin levels serve as a biomarker reflecting poor nutritional status. Clinically prealbumin's relation to retinol-binding protein and thyroid hormone levels facilitates its use in diagnosing and monitoring these conditions.
