Pancreatic polypeptide (PP) is a 36 amino-acid residue peptide with sequence and 3-D structural homology with NPY and PYY. PP is the least conserved of the three peptides and was the first to be identified. It is almost exclusively expressed in the endocrine pancreas and released in response to cholinergic stimulation and food intake. PP has inhibitory effects on gall bladder secretion, intestinal motility and pancreatic secretion. PP may serve as a marker for certain gut endocrine tumors including carcinoid tumors.
Synthetic human PP coupled to carrier with glutaraldehyde
ABS 030-06 binds human full length pancreatic polypeptide. Cross-reactivity with NPY and PYY was <0.1%.
The epitope of ABS 030-06 has not been determined.
ABS 030-06 binds free PP in solution.
ABS 030-06 reacts in ELISA with PP coated directly onto the microtiter well.
