Targeting Tools: Rat-ZAP

Advanced Targeting Systems is pleased to announce the arrival of its newest second immunotoxin, Rat-ZAP (Cat. #IT-26). This new screening agent is constructed from goat anti-rat IgG conjugated to saporin. Like the other second immunotoxins, Hum-ZAP, Mab-ZAP and Rab-ZAP, it converts your primary antibody, in this case a rat IgG, into a potent cytotoxic agent

Targeting Article: CCK-SAP in Binding Studies

Our thanks to Drs. Frank Porecca, Victory Hruby and Josephine Lai, Department of Pharmacology, The University of Arizona Health Sciences Center for sharing the results of their studies. Cholecystokinin (CCK) is widely distributed in the central nervous system and the gastrointestinal tract. The 33-amino acid peptide contains a carboxyl terminal octapeptide sequence Asp-Tyr-Met-Gly-Trp-Met-Asp-Phe-NH2 which confers
