ZP2 Antibodies

AND ZP2 ELISA kits, ZP2 Proteins

Many biological assays use antibodies to detect ZP2, such as Western Blot (WB), ELISA, Flow Cytometry, Immunocytochemistry (IHC). These antibodies can be polyclonal or monoclonal, and react with ZP2 in Human, Mouse, Rat, and many other animal samples. Boster Bio use mainly mouse and rabbit to develop ZP2 antibodies...

We validate the specificity of these antibodies to ZP2 by testing them on tissues known to express ZP2 positively and negatively. Browse below to find the ZP2 antibody that suites your experiment. We have 3 of these antibodies and many publications and validation images.

If you cannot find antibodies that fit your needs, contact us for making custom antibodies. We have a full suite of custom antibody services covering from research to diagnostic and therapeutic applications.

Designing a Western blot for ZP2? The guide has the expected band size, antibodies backed by real blot images, the controls to run alongside, and protocols taken from published papers.

ZP2 Overview

Facts about Zona pellucida sperm-binding protein 2.

ZP2 3D structure. Source: alphafold

Zona pellucida sperm-binding protein 2 (ZP2)

The mammalian zona pellucida, which mediates species- specific sperm binding, induction of the acrosome reaction and prevents post-fertilization polyspermy, is composed of a few glycoproteins, ZP1, ZP2, ZP3, and ZP4. ZP2 may serve a secondary sperm receptor.
