  • IHC image of CSB-RA116104A0HU diluted at 1:100 and staining in paraffin-embedded human liver tissue performed on a Leica BondTM system. After dewaxing and hydration, antigen retrieval was mediated by high pressure in a citrate buffer (pH 6.0). Section was blocked with 10% normal goat serum 30min at RT. Then primary antibody (1% BSA) was incubated at 4°C overnight. The primary is detected by a Goat anti-rabbit polymer IgG labeled by HRP and visualized using 0.05% DAB.
  • Overlay Peak curve showing Hela cells stained with CSB-RA116104A0HU (red line) at 1:100. The cells were fixed in 4% formaldehyde and permeated by 0.2% TritonX-100 for 10min. Then 10% normal goat serum to block non-specific protein-protein interactions followed by the antibody (1ug/1*106cells) for 45min at 4℃.

Description

AGL, also known as glycogen debranching enzyme, plays an essential role in glycogen metabolism by catalyzing two distinct enzymatic activities: 4-alpha-glucanotransferase and amylo-alpha-1,6-glucosidase. This bifunctional enzyme is critical for the complete breakdown of glycogen, and mutations in AGL are associated with glycogen storage disease type III, making it a significant target for metabolic disease research, liver pathology studies, and investigations into muscle disorders.

This recombinant monoclonal antibody, clone 8D4, offers the reproducibility and consistency that demanding research workflows require. Produced using recombinant technology with a defined sequence, this antibody eliminates the lot-to-lot variability that can complicate long-term studies or multi-site collaborations. The rabbit IgG format and affinity-chromatography purification ensure high specificity for your target.

Validation studies demonstrate robust performance across multiple applications and sample types. Western blot analysis confirms detection of AGL at the expected 175 kDa molecular weight in human LO2 whole cell lysate, rat skeletal muscle tissue, and mouse tongue tissue, providing researchers with confidence when working across these species. Immunohistochemistry validation in paraffin-embedded human liver tissue shows clear staining using standard antigen retrieval protocols, while flow cytometry analysis in HeLa cells demonstrates effective intracellular detection with appropriate signal separation from isotype controls.

The versatility across ELISA, immunohistochemistry, and flow cytometry applications gives researchers flexibility to investigate AGL expression and localization using complementary approaches. Whether you are studying glycogen metabolism, characterizing metabolic disorders, or examining tissue-specific expression patterns in liver and muscle, this antibody provides a reliable tool for advancing your research.
