Background of FFAR1/GPR40

Free fatty acid receptor 1 (FFA1), also known as GPR40, is a class A G-protein coupled receptor that in humans is encoded by the FFAR1 gene. This gene encodes a member of the GP40 family of G protein-coupled receptors that are clustered together on chromosome 19. The encoded protein is a receptor for medium and long chain free fatty acids and may be involved in the metabolic regulation of insulin secretion. Polymorphisms in this gene may be associated with type 2 diabetes.

Antibody Validation

7 Customer Q&As for Anti-GPCR GPR40/FFAR1 Antibody Picoband™

Question

Would anti-GPCR GPR40/FFAR1 antibody A01349-2 work on bovine WB with right ovary?

Verified Customer

Verified customer

Asked: 2020-02-05

Answer

Our lab technicians have not tested anti-GPCR GPR40/FFAR1 antibody A01349-2 on bovine. You can run a BLAST between bovine and the immunogen sequence of anti-GPCR GPR40/FFAR1 antibody A01349-2 to see if they may cross-react. If the sequence homology is close, then you can perform a pilot test. Keep in mind that since we have not validated bovine samples, this use of the antibody is not covered by our guarantee. However we have an innovator award program that if you test this antibody and show it works in bovine right ovary in WB, you can get your next antibody for free.

Question

I have a question about product A01349-2, anti-GPCR GPR40/FFAR1 antibody. I was wondering if it would be possible to conjugate this antibody with biotin. I would need it to be without BSA or sodium azide. I am planning on using a buffer exchange of sodium azide with PBS only. Would there be problems for me to conjugate the antibody and store it in -20 degrees in small aliquots?

L. Anderson

Verified customer

Asked: 2019-10-07

Answer

We do not advise storing this antibody with PBS buffer only in -20 degrees. If you want to store it in -20 degrees it is best to add some cryoprotectant like glycerol. If you want carrier free A01349-2 anti-GPCR GPR40/FFAR1 antibody, we can provide it to you in a special formula with trehalose and/or glycerol. These molecules will not interfere with conjugation chemistry and provide a good level of protection for the antibody from degradation. Please be sure to specify this in your purchase order.

Question

Will A01349-2 anti-GPCR GPR40/FFAR1 antibody work on parafin embedded sections? If so, which fixation method do you recommend we use (PFA, paraformaldehyde, other)?

Verified Customer

Verified customer

Asked: 2019-07-31

Answer

You can see on the product datasheet, A01349-2 anti-GPCR GPR40/FFAR1 antibody as been tested on WB. It is best to use PFA for fixation because it has better tissue penetration ability. PFA needs to be prepared fresh before use. Long term stored PFA turns into formalin, as the PFA molecules congregate and become formalin.

Question

We are currently using anti-GPCR GPR40/FFAR1 antibody A01349-2 for mouse tissue, and we are well pleased with the WB results. The species of reactivity given in the datasheet says human, mouse, rat. Is it likely that the antibody can work on canine tissues as well?

Z. Gonzalez

Verified customer

Asked: 2013-06-20

Answer

The anti-GPCR GPR40/FFAR1 antibody (A01349-2) has not been tested for cross reactivity specifically with canine tissues, but there is a good chance of cross reactivity. We have an innovator award program that if you test this antibody and show it works in canine you can get your next antibody for free. Please contact me if I can help you with anything.
