HPR blocking peptide
HPR Peptide - C-terminal region
Target Description: This gene encodes a haptoglobin-related protein that binds hemoglobin as efficiently as haptoglobin. Unlike haptoglobin, plasma concentration of this protein is unaffected in patients with sickle cell anemia and extensive intravascular hemolysis, suggesting a difference in binding between haptoglobin-hemoglobin and haptoglobin-related protein-hemoglobin complexes to CD163, the hemoglobin scavenger receptor. This protein may also be a clinically important predictor of recurrence of breast cancer.

Product Notes
The HPR hpr (Catalog #AAA3231415) is a Blocking Peptide and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The HPR Peptide - C-terminal region reacts with Human and may cross-react with other species as described in the data sheet. AAA Biotech's HPR can be used in a range of immunoassay formats including, but not limited to, Western Blot (WB). Researchers should empirically determine the suitability of the HPR hpr 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. The amino acid sequence is listed below: Synthetic peptide located within the following region: CLPSKNYAEV GRVGYVSGWG QSDNFKLTDH LKYVMLPVAD QYDCITHYEG. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "HPR, Blocking Peptide" 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
