Antibody Ig Isotype Clone: N/A
Antibody Immunogen Source: Produced against the C-terminal peptide (Sequence N-CHLEQPPPSTEAENVKLAHMKHKEQI) of rat aquaporin 3
Antibody Modification: Aquaporin pan-specific antibody
Antibody Concentration: 1 mg/ml
Storage Buffer: Phosphate buffered saline, 50% glycerol, 0.09% sodium azide
Storage Conditions: For long term storage, keep frozen at -40°C or lower. Stock solution can be kept at +4°C for more than 3 months. Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles.
Product Use: Western blotting | Immunohistochemistry | ICC/Immunofluorescence
Antibody Dilution Recommended: WB (1:2000), ICC/IF (1:400); optimal dilutions for assays should be determined by the user.
Antibody Potency: Detects a ~31.5 kDa protein in cell and tissue lysates by Western blotting. May detect larger glycosylated ~35-50 kDa proteins.
Antibody Species Reactivity: Human | Mouse | Rat
Antibody Positive Control: 0.5 µg/ml of SPC-504 was sufficient for detection of aquaporin 3 in 10 µg of rat kidney tissue lysate by colorimetric immunoblot analysis using Goat anti-rabbit IgG:HRP as the secondary antibody.

Scientific Background: Aquaporins selectively conduct water molecules in and out of the cell, while preventing the passage of ions and other solutes. Known as water channels, they are integral membrane pore proteins (1, 2). Aquaporin 3 is found in the basolateral cell membrane of principal collecting duct cells and provide a pathway for water to exit these cells (3). AQP3 gene expression is not regulated by vasopressin (4).
