Cytochrome b-245 heavy chain (UniProt: P04839; also known as CGD91-phox, Cytochrome b(558) subunit beta, Cytochrome b558 subunit beta, Heme-binding membrane glycoprotein gp91phox, NADPH oxidase 2, Neutrophil cytochrome b 91kDa polypeptide, Superoxide-generating NADPH oxidase heavy chain subunit, gp91-1, gp91-phox, p22 phagocyte B-cytochrome) is encoded by the CYBB (also known as NOX2) gene (Gene ID: 1536) in human. Gp91phox is a multi-pass membrane glycoprotein of the NADPH oxidase family that contains three extracellular domains, six transmembrane domains, and four cytoplasmic domains. It contains four iron binding sites and has a ferric oxidoreductase domain (aa 54-286). It is a critical component of the membrane-bound oxidase of phagocytes that generates superoxide and plays an important role in the host defense function of phagocytic cells. It also functions as a voltage-gated proton channel that mediates the H+ currents of resting phagocytes. It can undergo polyubiquitination at lysine 48 by RNF145 that triggers its endoplasmic reticulum-associated degradation. Mutations in CYBB gene are known to cause granulomatous disease that is characterized by the inability of neutrophils and phagocytes to kill ingested leading to life-threatening bacterial and fungal infections. This ZooMAb^® recombinant monoclonal antibody, generated by our proprietary technology, offers significantly enhanced specificity, affinity, reproducibility, and stability over conventional monoclonals. (Ref.: Burritt, JB., et al. (2003). J. Immunol. 170 (12); 6082-6089).

ZooMAb^® antibodies represent an entirely new generation of recombinant monoclonal antibodies. Each ZooMAb^® antibody is manufactured using our proprietary recombinant expression system, purified to homogeneity, and precisely dispensed to produce robust and highly reproducible lot-to-lot consistency. Only top-performing clones are released for use by researchers. Each antibody is validated for high specificity and affinity across multiple applications, including its most commonly used application. ZooMAb^® antibodies are reliably available and ready to ship when you need them.

KLH-conjugated linear peptide corresponding to 17 amino acids from the N-terminal half of human NOX2/gp91phox.

Clone 1J16 is a ZooMAb^® recombinant rabbit monoclonal antibody that specifically detects NOX2/gp91phox. It targets an epitope within 17 amino acids from the N-terminal half.

Purified recombinant rabbit monoclonal antibody IgG, lyophilized in PBS with 5% Trehalose, normal appearance a coarse or translucent resin. The PBS/trehalose components in the ZooMAb formulation can have the appearance of a semi-solid (bead like gel) after lyophilization. This is a normal phenomenon. Please follow the recommended reconstitution procedure in the data sheet to dissolve the semi-solid, bead-like, gel-appearing material. The resulting antibody solution is completely stable and functional as proven by full functional testing. Contains no biocide or preservatives, such as azide, or any animal by-products. Larger pack sizes provided as multiples of 25 µL.

300 µg/mL after reconstitution at 25 µL per vial. Please refer to guidance on suggested starting dilutions and/or titers per application and sample type.

Recommend storage of lyophilized product at 2-8°C; Before reconstitution, micro-centrifuge vials briefly to spin down material to bottom of the vial; Reconstitute each vial by adding 25 µL of filtered lab grade water or PBS; Reconstituted antibodies can be stored at 2-8°C, or -20°C for long term storage. Avoid repeated freeze-thaws.
