What Is ANKRD26P1 and Why Study It?
ANKRD26P1 (Ankyrin Repeat Domain 26 Pseudogene 1) is a pseudogene related to the ANKRD26 gene, which encodes a protein containing ankyrin repeat domains involved in cellular signaling and cytoskeletal organization. Pseudogenes such as ANKRD26P1 have attracted growing research interest because emerging evidence suggests that certain pseudogene-derived transcripts can exert regulatory roles in gene expression, potentially acting as competing endogenous RNAs (ceRNAs) or through other non-coding RNA mechanisms. Research into ANKRD26P1 may be relevant to understanding genomic regulation and disease-associated expression patterns.
Product Description and Formulation
The ANKRD26P1 Antibody (SKU: Ab351152) from Aladdin Scientific is referenced under absea catalog number OC-373. The antibody is supplied in a PBS-only formulation, meaning it does not contain preservatives such as sodium azide or carrier proteins such as BSA. This formulation is particularly suitable for applications where preservative-free or carrier-protein-free conditions are required, such as direct conjugation, functional assays, or sensitive detection systems.
Researchers should note that PBS-only antibodies may require additional stabilizers for long-term storage and should be aliquoted to avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles.
Recommended Storage and Handling
Because ANKRD26P1 Antibody (Ab351152) is formulated in PBS only, proper storage is critical to maintaining activity and preventing degradation:
- Short-term storage (up to 1 month): Store at 4°C.
- Long-term storage: Aliquot and store at -20°C or -80°C to avoid activity loss from repeated freeze-thaw cycles.
- Avoid: Repeated freeze-thaw cycles, prolonged exposure to room temperature, and contamination.
- Consider adding a carrier protein (e.g., 0.1% BSA) or glycerol if long-term stability is a concern, unless the downstream application is incompatible.
Always centrifuge the vial briefly before opening to collect contents at the bottom of the tube.

Frequently asked questions
What is the formulation of the ANKRD26P1 Antibody (Ab351152)?
The ANKRD26P1 Antibody is supplied in a PBS-only formulation, meaning it contains no preservatives (such as sodium azide) and no carrier proteins (such as BSA). This makes it suitable for applications requiring preservative-free or carrier-protein-free conditions.
How should I store the ANKRD26P1 Antibody to maintain its activity?
For short-term use (up to one month), store the antibody at 4°C. For long-term storage, aliquot the antibody into single-use volumes and store at -20°C or -80°C. Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles, which can reduce antibody activity. Since the antibody is in PBS only, consider adding a stabilizer such as BSA or glycerol if prolonged storage is needed and the application permits.
What research applications is the ANKRD26P1 Antibody intended for?
The ANKRD26P1 Antibody is intended for research use only. Typical antibody research applications may include Western blotting, immunofluorescence, immunohistochemistry, or ELISA, depending on validated data for this specific clone (absea OC-373). Researchers should consult the official product datasheet or contact Aladdin Scientific technical support to confirm validated applications for Ab351152.
What does the absea OC-373 reference indicate?
The absea OC-373 designation refers to the original catalog or clone reference number assigned by the upstream supplier (absea) for this antibody. Aladdin Scientific distributes this antibody as Ab351152. Researchers can use the OC-373 reference when cross-referencing literature or supplier documentation related to this antibody clone.
Can I use the ANKRD26P1 Antibody for clinical or diagnostic purposes?
No. The ANKRD26P1 Antibody (Ab351152) is supplied for research use only and is not intended for clinical, diagnostic, or therapeutic applications. Use outside of research settings is not supported or validated by Aladdin Scientific.
