Anti-Prosurfactant Protein C/SFTPC Antibody

SFTPC(Surfactant pulmonary -associated protein C), also known as SFTP2, SPC, PSP-C or PULMONARY SURFACTANT PROTEIN SP5, is a protein that in humans is encoded by the SFTPC gene. It is a membrane protein which manufactures surfactant. Glasser et al.(1988) assigned the SFTPC gene, symbolized SFTP2 by the Human Gene Mapping nomenclature committee, to chromosome 8 by hybridization to somatic cell hybrid DNA. Wood et al.(1994) identified 4 cosmids at the SFTP2 locus by cDNA hybridization. Using a polymorphic CA repeat in the SFTP2 gene and linkage analysis in 8 CEPH families, they located the gene close to D8S298; maximum lod = 19.3 at theta = 0.01. They regionalized the gene to 8p21 by fluorescence in situ hybridization. Moore et al.(1992) showed that the corresponding mouse gene, Sftp2, maps to chromosome 14.

Pulmonary surfactant associated proteins promote alveolar stability by lowering the surface tension at the air- liquid interface in the peripheral air spaces.

Immunogen affinity purified.

Add 0.2ml of distilled water will yield a concentration of 500ug/ml.
