Description: Vasoactive intestinal peptide, also known as PHM27 or VIP, is a peptide hormone containing 28 amino acid residues. This gene is mapped to 6q25. The protein encoded by this gene belongs to the glucagon family. It stimulates myocardial contractility, causes vasodilation, increases glycogenolysis, lowers arterial blood pressure and relaxes the smooth muscle of trachea, stomach and gall bladder. The protein also acts as an antimicrobial peptide with antibacterial and antifungal activity. Alternative splicing occurs at this locus and two transcript variants encoding distinct isoforms have been identified.
Immunogen: Amino acids HADGVFTSDFSKLLGQLSAKKYLESLM (PHM-27 sequence) from the human protein were used as the immunogen for the VIP antibody.
Storage: After reconstitution, the VIP antibody can be stored for up to one month at 4oC. For long-term, aliquot and store at -20 °C. Avoid repeated freezing and thawing.
