Human GCase Antibody (ICC)*
Monoclonal mouse anti-human GCase antibodies (clones 1/17 and 1/23) for immunocytochemistry applications.
These antibodies were generated by Roche and are kindly made available to academic/non-profit organizations only through the MJFF Sponsored Tools Program.
-
Ubiquitin pS65 Phosphospecific Antibody (Ms ELISA)
Rabbit monoclonal phosphospecific antibody directed against Serine65 of mouse ubiquitin. Suitable for ELISA applications.
-
Rab 10 pT73 Phosphospecific Antibody
Mouse anti-pT73 Rab10 antibody that has undergone Fc species switching to develop mouse reagents from the original rabbit antibody (MJF-R21-22-5). The new chimeric antibody is approved for immunoblotting and immunocytochemistry and can be detected using Fc-specific secondary antibodies to mouse IgG.
