APH1A Antibodies
AND APH1A ELISA kits, APH1A Proteins
Many biological assays use antibodies to detect APH1A, such as Western Blot (WB), ELISA, Flow Cytometry, Immunocytochemistry (IHC). These antibodies can be polyclonal or monoclonal, and react with APH1A in Human, Mouse, Rat, and many other animal samples. Boster Bio use mainly mouse and rabbit to develop APH1A antibodies...
Designing a Western blot for APH1A? The guide has the expected band size, antibodies backed by real blot images, the controls to run alongside, and protocols taken from published papers.

APH1A Overview
Facts about Gamma-secretase subunit APH-1A.
Gamma-secretase subunit APH-1A (APH1A)
Non-catalytic subunit of the gamma-secretase complex, an endoprotease complex that catalyzes the intramembrane cleavage of integral membrane proteins such as Notch receptors and APP (amyloid-beta precursor protein) (PubMed:12297508, PubMed:12522139, PubMed:12763021, PubMed:12679784, PubMed:25043039, PubMed:26280335). Required for normal gamma- secretase assembly (PubMed:12522139, PubMed:12471034, PubMed:12763021, PubMed:19369254).
The gamma-secretase complex plays a role in Notch and Wnt signaling cascades and regulation of downstream processes via its role in processing key regulatory proteins, and by regulating cytosolic CTNNB1 levels (Probable). .
