Enzo Biochem Grp78/BiP Polyclonal Antibody
Overview
This polyclonal antibody is designed to target Grp78 (Glucose-regulated protein 78), also known as BiP (Binding immunoglobulin protein), a major ER resident chaperone. It functions as a critical regulator of endoplasmic reticulum homeostasis and the unfolded protein response (UPR) signaling pathway.
Highlights
- Broad reactivity across multiple species for endoplasmic reticulum stress research.
- High specificity for the 78 kDa Grp78/BiP protein.
- Compatible with standard immunoassays for protein localization and expression analysis.
