Prostate Specific Gene-1 (HPG-1)

Human Prostate-Specific Gene-1 (HPG-1) product is a recently discovered membrane-anchored protein of approximately 15kD. It was detected exclusively in the prostate (19 different tissues were tested). Antisense- oligonicleotide inhibition of HPG-1 expression inhibited the growth of one prostate cancer cell line (LNCaP) significantly (86%). HPG-1 might be a novel diagnostic and/or therapeutic target. \n\nApplications:\nSuitable for use in ELISA and Western Blot. Other applications not tested.\n\nRecommended Dilution:\nOptimal dilutions to be determined by the researcher.\n\nStorage and Stabillty:\nLyophilized powder may be stored at -20 degrees C. Stable for 12 months at -20 degrees C. Reconstitute with sterile ddH2O. Aliquot to avoid repeated freezing and thawing. Store at -20 degrees C. Reconstituted product is stable for 12 months at -20 degrees C. For maximum recovery of product, centrifuge the original vial after thawing and prior to removing the cap. Further dilutions can be made in assay buffer.
