General Notes

This product (Catalog No. DPABH-17028) is a rabbit-derived polyclonal antibody raised against human OPN1MW, targeting the amino acid region 1–52 of the protein. This antibody exhibits cross-reactivity with Human OPN1MW from mouse and rat. It has been affinity purified by Protein A. OPN1MW (opsin 1, medium wave sensitive), also known as CBD. It is expected to be located in cell membrane. This gene encodes for a light absorbing visual pigment of the opsin gene family. The encoded protein is called green cone photopigment or medium-wavelength sensitive opsin. Opsins are G-protein coupled receptors with seven transmembrane domains, an N-terminal extracellular domain, and a C-terminal cytoplasmic domain. The long-wavelength opsin gene and multiple copies of the medium-wavelength opsin gene are tandemly arrayed on the X chromosome and frequent unequal recombination and gene conversion may occur between these sequences. X chromosomes may have fusions of the medium- and long-wavelength opsin genes or may have more than one copy of these genes. Defects in this gene are the cause of deutanopic colorblindness. The calculated molecular weight of OPN1MW is 40 kDa.
DPABH-17028 is suitable for use in Western blot (WB) (1:500–1:2,000) application.
DPABH-17028 is supplied as a liquid formulation in PBS with 0.02% sodium azide and 50% glycerol, pH 7.3. For long-term storage, keep at −20 °C. For short-term use, store at 2–8 °C. Avoid repeated freeze–thaw cycles to maintain antibody integrity and performance.
