Anti-LHRH [SMI41]

Catalogue Number: AB00922-10.0-BT-ABA

Manufacturer:Vector Laboratories, Inc (ABA)
Type:Recombinant Monoclonal
Alias:GnRH; LHRH; LNRH; Anti-Gonadotropin-Releasing Hormone; GNRH1; Gonadoliberin; Gonadorelin; luteinizing hormone release hormone; SMI-41; SMI 41
Shipping Condition:Blue Ice
Unit(s): 1 mg
Host name: Human
Clone: SMI41
Isotype: IgG1
Immunogen: LHRH diacetate tetrahydrate was conjugated to potato acid phosphatase and an emulsion composed of the conjugate and Freunds complete adjuvant was injected into the hind limb of female CAF1 mice. Immune spleen cells were fused with P3-X63-Ag8.653/3 myeloma cells by a modification of the original cell fusion method using polyethylene glycol. A hybridoma screening assays were used to select for high affinity monoclonal antibodies.
Application: IHC-P, RIA, IHC

Application Notes

SMI-41 has been used in immunocytochemistry experiments to detect the expression of mature LHRH in the brain detect cells containing mature LHRH peptide (Avigdor 2004). SMI-41 also has been expressed in mice via injection of a replication-incompetent, recombinant adeno-associated virus designed to express the antibody. This has been used to cofer long-term infertility in male and female mice (Li 2015).

Short Description

This chimeric human antibody was made using the variable domain sequences of the original Mouse IgG1 format, for improved compatibility with existing reagents, assays and techniques.
