FSH beta Antibody (INN-hFSH-60) Summary

• Immunogen: Human FSH
• Specificity: Directed against the Beta 2 epitope of the Beta subunit of hFSH, NB100-64755 shows strong reactions with hFSH and beta-hFSH, but no cross-reactivity with hTSH, hLH, hCG, alpha-hCG or alpha-hFSH. The recognition site is located near the alpha 1 binding site on the hFSH molecule. It is not compatible with other anti-hFSH-beta antibodies. In combination with NB100-62203 it can be used to detect holo-hFSH bound to a solid phase.

Background

Follicle stimulating hormone enables ovarian folliculogenesis to the antral follicle stage and is essential for Sertoli cell proliferation and maintenance of sperm quality in the testis. Members of the pituitary glycoprotein hormone family, of which FSH is one (see also luteinizing hormone, chorionic gonadotropin, and thyroid stimulating hormone), consist of a shared alpha chain and a beta chain encoded by a separate gene. The FSHB gene encodes the beta subunit of follicle stimulating hormone.
