AFP ( alpha -Fetoprotein)is a 69-73 kDa member of the ALB/AFP/VDB family of proteins. It is secreted by fetal liver and serves as a carrier molecule for phytoestrogens, heavy metals (Cu and Ni), estrogen and fatty acids. Mature mouse AFP is 587 amino acids (aa) in length. It contains three albumin domains (aa 20-201, 208-393 and 400-591), plus 15 intrachain disulfide bonds. Rat AFP contains an alternate start site at Met287 that may generate an intracellular 37 kDa form. Mouse AFP also shows an analogous site at Met281 that may produce an equivalent isoform. Over aa 19-605, mouse AFP shares 83% and 66% aa identity with rat and human AFP, respectively.

Mouse alpha-Fetoprotein / AFP ELISA Standard Curve
Mouse/Rat IGF-I was serially diluted and captured by Rat Anti-Mouse alpha ‑Fetoprotein/AFP Monoclonal Antibody (Catalog # MAB5369) coated on a Clear Polystyrene Microplate (Catalog # DY990). Goat Anti-Mouse alpha ‑Fetoprotein/AFP Antigen Affinity-purified Polyclonal Antibody (Catalog # AF5369) was biotinylated and incubated with the protein captured on the plate. Detection of the standard curve was achieved by incubating Streptavidin-HRP (Catalog # DY998)Applications for Mouse alpha-Fetoprotein/AFP Antibody [Biotin]
