Targeting Tools: FabFc-ZAP – A new secondary conjugate

Background of General Preparation and Components: Over the last few years, riding on the coattails of the established customer base for the ZAP line of secondary conjugates, Fab-ZAP has become the most popular ATS product group in the catalog. Combining species-specific monovalent secondary antibodies with the cytotoxic ribosome-inactivating protein, Saporin, the Fab-ZAP line of products

Saporin Cleavage

Can you comment on the mechanism by which the SAP toxin is cleaved off from the antibody? Your website indicates that the cleavage occurs in the endosome. I just want to verify that it is not cleaved in the lysosome. From what we have gathered, there is a great probability that something gets broken in
