Background of OBCAM/OPCML
Opioid-binding protein/cell adhesion molecule-like (OPCML), (also called opioid-binding cell adhesion molecule (OBCAM). OPCML is a member of the IgLON family of immunoglobulin (Ig) domain-containing glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI)-anchored cell adhesion molecules, as an excellent candidate for the 11q25 ovarian cancer TSG in EOC. The OPCML gene comprises 7 exons, spans approximately 600 kb, and is transcribed from telomere to centromere . And due to the lack of transmembrane domains necessary for signal transduction, it is improbable that OBCAM acts independently as an opioid receptor; more likely, it plays an important accessory role in opioid receptor function.
Antibody Validation
Boster validates all antibodies on WB, IHC, ICC, Immunofluorescence and ELISA with known positive and negative samples to ensure specificity and high affinity.

Question
We are currently using anti-OPCML antibody PA1131 for human tissue, and we are happy with the WB results. The species of reactivity given in the datasheet says human, mouse, rat. Is it true that the antibody can work on dog tissues as well?
Verified Customer
Verified customer
Asked: 2018-11-22
Answer
The anti-OPCML antibody (PA1131) has not been validated for cross reactivity specifically with dog tissues, though 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 dog you can get your next antibody for free. Please contact me if I can help you with anything.
