Uniprot Description
SHBG: Functions as an androgen transport protein, but may also be involved in receptor mediated processes. Each dimer binds one molecule of steroid. Specific for 5-alpha-dihydrotestosterone, testosterone, and 17-beta-estradiol. Regulates the plasma metabolic clearance rate of steroid hormones by controlling their plasma concentration. 2 isoforms of the human protein are produced by alternative splicing.
Protein type: Secreted; Secreted, signal peptide
Chromosomal Location of Human Ortholog: 17p13.1
Cellular Component: extracellular region
Molecular Function: androgen binding
Biological Process: primary spermatocyte growth

Product Notes
The SHBG shbg (Catalog #AAA536258) is an Antibody produced from Goat and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. AAA Biotech's SHBG can be used in a range of immunoassay formats including, but not limited to, ELISA (EIA), Radioimmunoassay (RIA), Western Blot (WB). Researchers should empirically determine the suitability of the SHBG shbg for an application not listed in the data sheet. Researchers commonly develop new applications and it is an integral, important part of the investigative research process. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "SHBG, Polyclonal Antibody" to become dispersed throughout the inside of the vial, particularly around the seal of said vial, during shipment and storage. We always suggest centrifuging these vials to consolidate all of the liquid away from the lid and to the bottom of the vial prior to opening. Please be advised that certain products may require dry ice for shipping and that, if this is the case, an additional dry ice fee may also be required.Precautions
