Immunogen
The original antibody was raised against residues 18–22 of amyloid beta.
Application Notes
The specificity of the original, Fab and scFv formats of the antibody was confirmed by ELISA analysis (Tammer et al., 2002; PMID: 12197886, Nisbet et al., 2013; PMID: 23766374). The original format of the antibody is extensively used for immunohistochemistry for detection of Aβ plaques. The original format and the Fab fragment bound to Ab[1–40/42/43] peptides by western blot analysis. The Fab format of the antibody shown to bind plaques within sections of human AD brain tissue by immunohistochemistry (Tammer et al., 2002; PMID:12197886). The scFv format of the antibody bound to the central region of Amyloid beta with an affinity of ∼55 nM and significantly reduced fibril formation of Amyloid beta 1–42. Furthermore, the scFv format of the antibody ameliorates Ab1–42-mediated toxicity in the PC12 cell line and murine primary neuronal cultures (Nisbet et al., 2013; PMID:23766374). The antibody was able to immunoprecipitate aliquots of individual EDTA-blood plasma samples from five different donors by magnetic bead immunoprecipitation (Klafki et al., 2020; PMID: 32911706).
