Control Peptide for O3003-10 (antiserum) and O3003-11 (affinity purified) A 15aa Peptide sequence near the cytoplasmic, N-terminus of rat OAT2. Mammalian kidney and liver are critical in maintaining physiological ionic environment. Kidney specializes in removing toxins, drugs, and other organic anions from the blood by a process called renal secretion. Besides kidney, anionic substrates are also transported in other organs, e.g., choroid plexus, eye, airway, and placenta. Several multispecific OATs (OAT1-3, OAT-K1 and OATK2) and OATPs (organic anion transporting polypeptides, oatp1-3), have been cloned and characterized from various tissues. OATPs family of proteins are very similar in sequence and secondary protein structure (up to 12 transmembrane domains with cytoplasmic N and C-terminus). OAT2, previously called NLT (novel liver-specific transporter) shows 42% homology with OAT2. OAT2 (rat 535 aa, human 548 aa) is predominantly expressed in liver, and to a lower level in kidney. OAT2 mediates sodium-independent, multispecific organic anion transport (PAH, salicylate and acetylsalicylate, prostaglandin E2, and dicarboxylate. pplications: Suitable for use in ELISA and Antibody Blocking. Other applications not tested. Recommended Dilution: ELISA: 1ug/ml Antibody Blocking: 5-10ug/1ul O30003-10 or 1ug O3003-11 Optimal dilutions to be determined by the researcher. Storage and Stability: May be stored at 4C for short-term only. For long-term storage, store at -20C. Aliquots are stable for at least 6 months at -20C. For maximum recovery of product, centrifuge the original vial after thawing and prior to removing the cap. Further dilutions can be made in assay buffer.
