Gene Information

human ... SST(6750)

General description

SST (somatostatin) is present in two active forms SST-14 (14 amino acids length) and SST-28.

Immunogen

Somatostatin Precursor recombinant protein epitope signature tag (PrEST)

Application

Anti-SST antibody produced in rabbit, a Prestige Antibody, is developed and validated by the Human Protein Atlas (HPA) project . Each antibody is tested by immunohistochemistry against hundreds of normal and disease tissues. These images can be viewed on the Human Protein Atlas (HPA) site by clicking on the Image Gallery link. The antibodies are also tested using immunofluorescence and western blotting. To view these protocols and other useful information about Prestige Antibodies and the HPA, visit sigma.com/prestige.
These images and the collection of this vast data set can be viewed on the Human Protein Atlas (HPA) site by clicking on the Image Gallery link. We also provide Prestige Antibodies® protocols and other useful information.

Biochem/physiol Actions

SST (somatostatin) functions by binding to the G protein-coupled receptor (somatostatin receptors). It is a peptide hormone which is produced in the hypothalamus, the gastrointestinal tract and the endocrine pancreas. SST inhibits hormone secretion and gastrointestinal function. In presence of glucose and amino acids, SST-14 is released from δ-cells in pancreatic islets of Langerhans. It suppresses the secretion of insulin and glucagon. In the gastrointestinal tract, SST suppresses gallbladder contraction and reduces secretion.

Features and Benefits

Prestige Antibodies® are highly characterized and extensively validated antibodies with the added benefit of all available characterization data for each target being accessible via the Human Protein Atlas portal linked just below the product name at the top of this page. The uniqueness and low cross-reactivity of the Prestige Antibodies® to other proteins are due to a thorough selection of antigen regions, affinity purification, and stringent selection. Prestige antigen controls are available for every corresponding Prestige Antibody and can be found in the linkage section.

Every Prestige Antibody is tested in the following ways:
  • IHC tissue array of 44 normal human tissues and 20 of the most common cancer type tissues.
  • Protein array of 364 human recombinant protein fragments.
