Rabbit anti-Human ZP2 Polyclonal Antibody | anti-ZP2 antibody
ZP2 Antibody
Phosphate buffered saline, pH 7.4, 150mM NaCl, 0.02% sodium azide and 50% glycerol.
Subunit Structure: Can form homopolymers that assemble into long fibers (in vitro). Polymers of ZP2 and ZP3 organized into long filaments cross-linked by ZP1 homodimers (By similarity). Interacts with ZP3 (PubMed:28886344).
Post-translational Modifications: Proteolytically cleaved before the transmembrane segment to yield the secreted ectodomain incorporated in the zona pellucida. Proteolytically cleaved in the N-terminal part by the metalloendopeptidase ASTL exocytosed from cortical granules after fertilization, yielding a N-terminal peptide of about 30 kDa which remains covalently attached to the C-terminal peptide via disulfide bond(s). This cleavage may play an important role in the post-fertilization block to polyspermy. Additional proteolytically cleavage of the N-terminal peptide of 30 kDa occurs in one-cell and two-cell embryos. N-glycosylated. O-glycosylated; contains sulfate-substituted glycans.
Similarity: The ZP domain is involved in the polymerization of the ZP proteins to form the zona pellucida. Belongs to the ZP domain family. ZPA subfamily.
NCBI and Uniprot Product Information
Predicted: 83 kDa
NCBI Description
The zona pellucida is an extracellular matrix that surrounds the oocyte and early embryo. It is composed of three glycoproteins with various functions during fertilization and preimplantation development. The glycosylated mature peptide is one of the structural components of the zona pellucida and functions in secondary binding and penetration of acrosome-reacted spermatozoa. Female mice lacking this gene do not form a stable zona matrix and are sterile. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Feb 2014]
Uniprot Description
The mammalian zona pellucida, which mediates species-specific sperm binding, induction of the acrosome reaction and prevents post-fertilization polyspermy, is composed of three to four glycoproteins, ZP1, ZP2, ZP3, and ZP4. ZP2 may act as a secondary sperm receptor.

Product Notes
The ZP2 zp2 (Catalog #AAA9602881) is an Antibody produced from Rabbit and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The ZP2 Antibody reacts with Human and may cross-react with other species as described in the data sheet. AAA Biotech's ZP2 can be used in a range of immunoassay formats including, but not limited to, Western Blot (WB), ELISA (EIA). WB: 1:1000-3000. Researchers should empirically determine the suitability of the ZP2 zp2 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 "ZP2, 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
