Overview
Type: Synthetic peptide
Form: Lyophilized Powder
CLEC7A/Dectin-1 (extracellular) Blocking Peptide (#BLP-LR062) is the original antigen used for immunization during Anti-CLEC7A/Dectin-1 (extracellular) Antibody (#ALR-062) generation. The blocking peptide binds and ‘blocks’ Anti-CLEC7A/Dectin-1 (extracellular) primary antibody, this makes it a good negative reagent control to help confirm antibody specificity in western blot and immunohistochemistry applications. This control is also often called a pre-adsorption control.

Expression of CLEC7A/Dectin-1 in rat hippocampus.Immunohistochemical staining of perfusion-fixed frozen rat brain sections with Anti-CLEC7A/Dectin-1 (extracellular) Antibody (#ALR-062), (1:2400), followed by goat anti-rabbit-AlexaFluor-488. A. Staining in the hippocampal dentate gyrus region, showed CLEC7A immunoreactivity (green) in astrocytes of the hilus (H). B.

Multiplex staining of CLEC7A and GFAP in rat hippocampal CA1 regionImmunohistochemical staining of perfusion-fixed frozen rat brain sections with Anti-CLEC7A/Dectin-1 (extracellular) Antibody (#ALR-062), (1:600), followed by goat anti-rabbit-AlexaFluor-488 and Guinea Pig Anti-GFAP Antibody (#AFP-001-GP), (1:600), followed by goat anti-guinea pig-AlexaFluor-594. A. CLEC7A immunoreactivity (green) appears in astrocyte profiles. B. GFAP immunoreactivity (red) appears in astrocyte profiles. C. Merge of the two images demonstrates extensive co-localization. Cell nuclei are stained with DAPI (blue). P = pyramidal layer.
