Product Name :
FR beta polyclonal antibody Background :
Folate is an essential vitamin that must be obtained from food intake through intestinal absorption in mammals. Folate and reduced folic acid derivatives bind to the folate receptor (FR) family, which mediates the endocytosis of 5-methyltetrahydofolate into the cell. The folate receptors consist of five members, α, β, γ, γ' (which is produced by alternative splicing) and δ. α-FR and β-FR are attached to the membrane by a GPI anchor and are expressed in malignant tissues of epithelial and nonepithelial origin, respectively. γ-FR is expressed in tissues of hematopoietic origin, such as spleen, thymus and bone marrow, but the expression pattern of δ-FR is elusive, which suggests that it is highly restricted both spatially and temporally. α-FR is used as a highly selective tumor marker and may be targeted for the delivery of therapeutic compounds to tumor cells by coupling to derivatives of folic acid.

Describe :

Blocking peptides are peptides that bind specifically to the target antibody and block antibody binding. These peptide usually contains the epitope recognized by the antibody. Antibodies bound to the blocking peptide no longer bind to the epitope on the target protein. This mechanism is useful when non-specific binding is an issue, for example, in Western blotting (WB) and Immunohistochemistry (IHC). By comparing the staining from the blocked antibody versus the antibody alone, one can see which staining is specific; Specific binding will be absent from the western blot or IHC performed with the neutralized antibody.
