| SpCrossreactivity | The 14 AA human MCR42 immunogenic peptide sequence is 100% identical in monkey, pig, & bovine 84% with mouse, and 69% homologous with rat MC4-R. No significant sequence homology of MCR42 is seen with other melanocortin receptors. ADI has another antibody that is made to rat MC4-R sequence (MCR41-S). Actual crossreactivity of antibodies in all species is not established |
| 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. |
