Description

General description

Galactocerebroside (GalC) is a major galactosphingolipid of myelin which plays a role in myelination. GalC is a very useful, specific marker for oligodendroglial lineage.

Immunogen

Synaptic plasma membranes from bovine hippocampus.

Application

Detect Galactocerebroside using this Milli-Mark Anti-Galactocerebroside-FITC Antibody, clone mGalC validated for use in FC.

Research Sub Category
Neuronal & Glial Markers

Biochem/physiol Actions

Galactocerebroside (GalC), sulfatide, psychosine and other galactolipids cross-reacts with the sulfatide ester of GalC, but to a 16-fold lesser extent. No cross-reactivity with sphingosine, ceramide, mixed ganglioside or glucocerebroside. Binds specifically with oligodendrocytes and Schwann cells.

Physical form

Protein A purified

Purified mouse monoclonal IgG3 conjugated to FITC in PBS with 0.1% sodium azide and 15 mg/mL BSA.

Preparation Note

Maintain refrigerated at 2-8 °C protected from light in undiluted aliquots for up to 6 months from date of receipt.

Analysis Note

Control
PC-12 cells

Evaluated by flow cytometry using PC-12 cells.
