What are the advantages of a recombinant monoclonal antibody?
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.

Conjugation ready
Our carrier-free antibodies are typically supplied in a PBS-only formulation, purified and free of BSA, sodium azide and glycerol. 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.

Sandwich ELISA
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 information

Zinc Alpha 2 Glycoprotein (ZAG) also called ZAG or AZGP1 is a soluble protein with a molecular mass of approximately 41 kDa. It functions as an adipokine and is mostly found in the liver breast and prostate tissues as well as in bodily fluids like plasma and saliva. ZAG belongs to the major histocompatibility complex class I family and it shares structural similarities with antigen-presenting proteins.
Biological function summary

Zinc Alpha 2 Glycoprotein assists in lipid metabolism. It promotes the breakdown of triglycerides in adipose tissue by stimulating the beta-adrenergic pathway. ZAG functions independently and does not typically form complexes with other proteins during this process. Its presence in adipose tissue suggests a role in energy homeostasis and body weight regulation.

Pathways

Zinc Alpha 2 Glycoprotein participates in the metabolic pathway for lipid degradation. The protein interacts with beta-3 adrenergic receptors to trigger lipolysis which involves breaking down fat cells into free fatty acids and glycerol. Its action in this pathway links ZAG with other proteins such as perilipin which protects lipid droplets from breakdown.

Zinc Alpha 2 Glycoprotein has connections with metabolic-related conditions notably obesity and cancer cachexia. In obesity lower levels of ZAG are often observed potentially linking it to impaired fat metabolism. In cancer cachexia elevated ZAG levels are frequently detected suggesting a role in the loss of fat and muscle tissue. ZAG's interaction with certain cytokines may enhance cachexia progression by affecting protein degradation pathways.
