| Antigen | 3 different peptides (14 aa from human BD-2, 14-aa from rat defensin-2, and 17 aa from mouse BD-2 (the mixture designated as designated HBD21-P; control peptides)
Epitope location ~ near the N-terminus of mature BD-2 conjugated to KLH |
| Form | Antigen/blocking Peptide |
| Product Type | Peptide |
| SpCrossreactivity | The beta-defensin-2 peptides selected for antibody production have no significant sequence homology with other defensins. Antibody HBD21 reacts with HBD-2 from mouse, rat, and human beta defensin-2. Antibody cross-reactivity in various other species has not been studied. |
| SpeciesReactivity | Human |
| SugApplications | Control or blocking peptides are recommended for ELISA plate coating for direct ELISA testing of antibodies or competitive ELISA, and antibody blocking or neutralization. |
