ZAG (zinc-alpha 2-glycoprotein; also ZA2G) is a 40 kDa, secreted member of the MHC class I family of proteins. It is produced by adipocytes and various epithelial cells that generate exocrine-type secretions. ZAG is reported to stimulate lipid breakdown and thus may play a role in lipid homeostasis. Mature human ZAG is 278 amino acids (aa) in length. It contains one MHC class I antigen region (aa 26‑201) and a C2‑type Ig‑like domain (aa 207‑292). Two alternate splice forms exist; one shows a 66 aa substitution for the C‑terminal 30 aa, and a second shows a nine Lys substitution for aa 151‑298. Mature human ZAG is 60% aa identical to mouse ZAG.

Scientific Data Images for Human ZAG Antibody (842025)
Detection of Human ZAG by Western Blot.
Western blot shows human plasma and lysates of human prostate tissue. PVDF membrane was probed with 1 µg/mL of Mouse Anti-Human ZAG Monoclonal Antibody (Catalog # MAB4764) followed by HRP-conjugated Anti-Mouse IgG Secondary Antibody (Catalog # HAF007). A specific band was detected for ZAG at approximately 41 kDa (as indicated). This experiment was conducted under reducing conditions and using Immunoblot Buffer Group 1.Detection of Human ZAG by Simple WesternTM.
Simple Western lane view shows lysates of human prostate tissue, loaded at 0.2 mg/mL. A specific band was detected for ZAG at approximately 59 kDa (as indicated) using 10 µg/mL of Mouse Anti-Human ZAG Monoclonal Antibody (Catalog # MAB4764). This experiment was conducted under reducing conditions and using the 12-230 kDa separation system.Applications for Human ZAG Antibody (842025)
