GPX5 (FITC)

FITC

Recombinant protein corresponding to aa22-219 from porcine Epididymal secretory glutathione peroxidase.

Suitable for use in FLISA. Other applications not tested.

May constitute a glutathione peroxidase-like protective system against peroxide damage in sperm membrane lipids. Since the purified porcine enzyme has very little activity towards hydrogen peroxide or organic hydroperoxides the protective effect is not likely to be exerted by its enzymatic activity. Instead, may protect sperm from premature acrosome reaction in the epididymis by binding to lipid peroxides, which might otherwise interact with phospholipase A2 and induce the acrosome reaction.

IgG

Polyclonal

Purified by Protein G affinity chromatography.

Suitable for use in FLISA. Other applications not tested.

Optimal dilutions to be determined by the researcher.
