β-casein Antibody (H-7) is a mouse monoclonal IgG3 antibody that detects β-casein in mouse samples through applications such as western blotting (WB), immunoprecipitation (IP), immunofluorescence (IF), and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). β-casein plays a vital role in the nutritional development of newborn mammals, as β-casein is one of the primary proteins found in mammalian milk, particularly in human milk where β-casein exists alongside k-casein. The unique structure of β-casein, characterized by highly phosphorylated sites, is crucial for calcium-binding capacity, which enhances the digestibility of casein micelles in neonates, especially during the early days of life when colostrum is consumed. The β-casein gene (Bca) is intricately regulated by a network of transcription factors, including Stat5 and C/EBPβ, which respond to lactogenic hormones such as prolactin, insulin, and hydrocortisone, ensuring that β-casein is produced in adequate amounts to support the growth and development of the young. Additionally, the presence of NFκB as a negative regulator during pregnancy highlights the complex interplay of signaling pathways that govern β-casein expression, making β-casein a critical focus for studies related to lactation and neonatal nutrition. Anti-β-casein antibody (H-7) is an essential tool for researchers investigating the roles of milk proteins in health and development.
