Immunogen: Synthetic peptide from the C-terminal region of human PAF-AH
Host: Rabbit
Species Reactivity: (+) Human PAF-AH; (−) Mouse, guinea pig, canine, and chicken PAF-AH
Application(s): WB
PAF-AH converts PAF to the biologically inactive lyso-PAF. Plasma PAF-AH is highly selective for phospholipids with very short acyl groups at the sn-2 position and is associated with lipoproteins. It has been linked to atherosclerosis and may be a positive risk factor for coronary heart disease in humans.
