Clathrin heavy chain 1 (UniProt: Q00610; also known as Clathrin heavy chain on chromosome 17, CLH-17) is encoded by the CLTC (also known as CLH17, CLTCL2, KIAA0034) gene (Gene ID: 1213) in human. Clathrin is the major protein of the polyhedral coat of coated pits and vesicles. It is a trimer composed of three heavy chains and three light chains. Each monomer projects outwards like a leg; this three-legged structure is known as a triskelion. In this assembly , the heavy chains form the legs with their N-terminal β-propeller regions extending outwards, while their C-terminal - -superhelical regions form the central hub of the triskelion. Multiple triskelia interact on the surface of vesicle and forms the polyhedral lattice that are termed as clathrin coat. Two different adapter protein complexes link the clathrin lattice either to the plasma membrane or to the trans-Golgi network. Clathrin heavy chain localizes to the cytoplasmic face of coated pits and vesicles. When complexed with transforming acidic coiled-coil containing protein 3 (TACC3) and cytoskeleton associated protein 5 (CKAP5), it is localized to inter-microtubule bridges in mitotic spindles and stabilizes them. Clathrin heavy chain is reported to interact with Atg16L1 and plays a role in early autophagosome formation. Inhibition of clathrin-mediated internalization reduced the formation of both Atg16L1-positive precursors and mature autophagosomes. This ZooMAbZooMAb^® recombinant monoclonal antibody, generated by our propriety technology, offers significantly enhanced specificity, affinity, reproducibility, and stability over conventional monoclonals.

KLH-conjugated liner peptide corresponding to 18 amino acids from the C-terminal region of human Clathrin heavy chain 1.

Purified recombinant rabbit monoclonal antibody IgG, lyophilized in PBS, 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.

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.

Reconstitute lyophilized antibody pellet with 25μL of ultrapure water or Phosphate Buffered Saline (PBS). Please refer to our reconstitution protocol and the specific application guidance on the suggested starting dilutions and sample type.
