Our RabMAb® technology is a patented hybridoma-based technology for making rabbit monoclonal antibodies. For details on our patents, please refer to RabMAb® patents.
This product is a recombinant monoclonal antibody, which offers several advantages including:
- - High batch-to-batch consistency and reproducibility
- - Improved sensitivity and specificity
- - Long-term security of supply
- - Animal-free batch production
For more information, read more on recombinant antibodies.
Our carrier-free antibodies are typically supplied in a PBS-only formulation, purified and free of BSA, sodium azide and glycerol. The carrier-free buffer and high concentration allow for increased conjugation efficiency.
This conjugation-ready format is designed for use with fluorochromes, metal isotopes, oligonucleotides, and enzymes, which makes them ideal for antibody labelling, functional and cell-based assays, flow-based assays (e.g. mass cytometry) and Multiplex Imaging applications.
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 recommended antibody orientation is based on internal optimization for ELISA-based assays. Antibody orientation is assay dependent and needs to be optimized for each assay type. Please note that the range provided for this antibody is only an estimation based on the performance of the product using the recommended antibody pair. Performance of the antibody pair will depend on the specific characteristics of your assay. We guarantee the product works in sandwich ELISA, but we do not guarantee the sensitivity or dynamic range of the antibody in your assay.
Supplementary info

- Activity summary
Anterior Gradient 2 (AG2) also known as AGR2 is a protein with a molecular weight of approximately 20 kDa. This protein is a member of the protein disulfide isomerase family and has an important mechanical role in facilitating protein folding within the endoplasmic reticulum. The protein exists mainly in epithelial tissues and notably in the gastrointestinal tract with high expression also found in the pancreas and lungs. AG2 is characterized by its interaction with various client proteins assisting in their proper folding and stability.
- Biological function summary
The anterior gradient protein influences cellular processes such as proliferation and differentiation often playing a role in cellular adhesion and migration. This protein does not work alone but instead can form complexes with other molecules enhancing its functional capabilities. Such interactions highlight its significance in maintaining normal cell physiology and response to external stimuli.
- Pathways
Anterior gradient protein participates in key signaling pathways including the Wnt signaling pathway and the unfolded protein response (UPR). Through these pathways AG2 associates with proteins like β-catenin influencing gene transcription and cellular outcomes. In the UPR its role is important in managing cellular stress and maintaining homeostasis by regulating protein folding and quality control mechanisms.
- Associated diseases and disorders
Anterior gradient protein shows strong associations with cancer particularly in tumors such as breast and lung cancer where it is often overexpressed. Its involvement links closely with proteins like MUC1 which is found in tumors suggesting a role in promoting cancer progression and metastasis. Additionally AG2 can be related to inflammatory bowel diseases where its dysregulation may result in epithelial barrier dysfunction and contribute to the pathology.
