Overview
Type: Synthetic peptide
Form: Lyophilized powder
Somatostatin Receptor Type 5 (extracellular) Blocking Peptide (#BLP-SR005) is the original antigen used for immunization during Anti-Somatostatin Receptor Type 5 (extracellular) Antibody (#ASR-005) generation. The blocking peptide binds and ‘blocks’ Anti-Somatostatin Receptor Type 5 (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.

Applications
Demonstration of Pre-adsorption control
Western blot analysis of rat brain lysate:1. Anti-Somatostatin Receptor Type 5 (extracellular) Antibody (#ASR-005), (1:200).
2. Anti-Somatostatin Receptor Type 5 (extracellular) Antibody, preincubated with Somatostatin Receptor Type 5 (extracellular) Blocking Peptide (#BLP-SR005).
Expression of SSTR5 in mouse cerebellumImmunohistochemical staining of Somatostatin receptor 5 (SSTR5) in mouse cerebellum using Anti-Somatostatin Receptor Type 5 (extracellular) Antibody (#ASR-005). A. SSTR5 (red) appears in Purkinje cells (horizontal arrows) and in molecular layer interneurons (vertical arrows). B. Parvalbumin (green) appears in the Purkinje cells and their processes. C. merge of SSTR5 and parvalbumin demonstrates co-localization in Purkinje cells (horizontal arrows) but not in the molecular layer (vertical cells). DAPI is used as the counterstain (blue).
