Antibody Assistant

Anti-Pan Trk pAb

The Trk receptors are a family of tyrosine kinases and include TrkA, TrkB and TrkC, each having preferred neurotrophin ligands. Anti-Pan Trk pAb (Cat.# G1581) is purified using the EGGstract® IgY Purification System (Cat.# G2610).

  • Immunogen: Fusion protein containing a peptide corresponding to amino acids 778–790 of the cytoplasmic domain of human TrkA.
  • Antibody Form: Chicken IgY provided at 0.5mg/ml as frozen liquid in 0.1M NaCl, 0.01M K2HPO4 and 50μg/ml gentamicin.
  • Specificity: Recognizes amino acids 778–790 (ALAQAPPVYLDVL), located in the highly conserved region of the Trk receptors. Recognizes and cross-reacts with TrkA, TrkB and TrkC.
