Basic Information | |
Specificity | This antibody is specific for a 79 amino acid long region between amino acids 1462 to 1540 of the full human sequence (corresponding to amino acids 1399 to 1478 in the rat homologue) in Giantin, a Golgi matrix protein. |
Alternative Name | Golgin subfamily B member 1; 372 kDa Golgi complex-associated protein; GCP372; Macrogolgin |
UniProt | |
Immunogen | The original antibody was generated via phage display from the Griffin.1 library by screening against Rat liver Golgi (RLG) complexes derived from rat liver. |
Application Notes | The original format of this antibody (scFv) was successfully used in a Western blot and for in vitro immunofluorescence straining of Giantin in HeLa cells. siRNA knock-down of Giantin reduced TA10 staining, confirming its specificity. Furthermore, an in vivo expressed TA10-GFP construct successfully stained HeLa cells (Nizak et al., 2003; PMID: 14617357). The scFv-Fc fusion version of this antibody — hTA10 — detected Giantin when cells were fixed by paraformaldehyde (Moutel et al., 2009; PMID: 19245715). Precise characterization of the TA10 target was achieved; a region of 79 amino acids, representing less than 2.5% of the entire protein, was determined as its binding site (Vielemeyer et al., 2010; PMID:20727208). |
