Related Product Information for anti-SLC30A8 antibody
SLC30A8 Antibody: SLC30A8 is a zinc efflux transporter involved in the accumulation of zinc in intracellular vesicles and is expressed at a high level in the pancreas, particularly in islets of Langerhans, and co-localizes with insulin in the secretory pathway granules of the insulin-secreting INS-1 cells (1). Allelic variants of SLC30A8 have been identified as major genetic risk factors for the development of Type 2 diabetes (2), but no genetic association has been found with Type 1 diabetes (3). SLC30A8 expression in ?-cells was found to be influenced by cytokine expression, particularly IFN-gamma and IL-1beta (4).

NCBI Description

The protein encoded by this gene is a zinc efflux transporter involved in the accumulation of zinc in intracellular vesicles. This gene is expressed at a high level only in the pancreas, particularly in islets of Langerhans. The encoded protein colocalizes with insulin in the secretory pathway granules of the insulin-secreting INS-1 cells. Allelic variants of this gene exist that confer susceptibility to diabetes mellitus, noninsulin-dependent (NIDDM). Several transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene.[provided by RefSeq, Mar 2010]

Uniprot Description

SLC30A8: Facilitates the accumulation of zinc from the cytoplasm into intracellular vesicles, being a zinc-efflux transporter. May be a major component for providing zinc to insulin maturation and/or storage processes in insulin-secreting pancreatic beta- cells. Belongs to the cation diffusion facilitator (CDF) transporter (TC 2.A.4) family. SLC30A subfamily. 2 isoforms of the human protein are produced by alternative splicing.

Product Notes

The SLC30A8 slc30a8 (Catalog #AAA154449) is an Antibody produced from Rabbit and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The SLC30A8 Antibody reacts with Human and may cross-react with other species as described in the data sheet. AAA Biotech's SLC30A8 can be used in a range of immunoassay formats including, but not limited to, ELISA (EIA), Western Blot (WB). Western blot at 1 - 2 mug/mL. Researchers should empirically determine the suitability of the SLC30A8 slc30a8 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 "SLC30A8, 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.
