Anti-HSD17B4 antibody produced in rabbit

产品说明

一般描述

17β-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase type 4 (HSD17B4) gene is mapped to human chromosome 5q2. This gene is of more than 100kbp length. It consists of exons ranging from 21bp to 286bp and it encodes an 80kDa protein.
HSD17B4, also known as D-bifunctional protein (DBP), is highly expressed in liver, heart, prostate and testis. It is a 737 amino acid protein consisting of three functional domains N-terminal 3-hydroxyacyl-CoA dehydrogenase domain, a central 2-enoyl-CoA hydratase domain, and a C-terminal sterol carrier protein 2-like domain.

应用

All Prestige Antibodies Powered by Atlas Antibodies are developed and validated by the Human Protein Atlas (HPA) project (www.proteinatlas.org)and as a result, are supported by the most extensive characterization in the industry.

The Human Protein Atlas project can be subdivided into three efforts: Human Tissue Atlas, Cancer Atlas, and Human Cell Atlas. The antibodies that have been generated in support of the Tissue and Cancer Atlas projects have been tested by immunohistochemistry against hundreds of normal and disease tissues and through the recent efforts of the Human Cell Atlas project, many have been characterized by immunofluorescence to map the human proteome not only at the tissue level but now at the subcellular level. These images and the collection of this vast data set can be viewed on the Human Protein Atlas (HPA) site by clicking on the Image Gallery link.

生化/生理作用

HSD17B4 (17β-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase type 4) enzyme plays a major role in β-oxidation of fatty acids and steroid metabolic process. Mutations in HSD17B4 gene lead to Zellweger syndrome and an autosomal recessive disorder called DBP (D-bifunctional protein) deficiency, both of which are generally fatal. Increase in the expression of peroxisomal protein leads to prostate cancer.

特点和优势

Prestige Antibodies^® are highly characterized and extensively validated antibodies with the added benefit of all available characterization data for each target being accessible via the Human Protein Atlas portal linked just below the product name at the top of this page. The uniqueness and low cross-reactivity of the Prestige Antibodies^® to other proteins are due to a thorough selection of antigen regions, affinity purification, and stringent selection. Prestige antigen controls are available for every corresponding Prestige Antibody and can be found in the linkage section.

Every Prestige Antibody is tested in the following ways:

• IHC tissue array of 44 normal human tissues and 20 of the most common cancer type tissues.
• Protein array of 364 human recombinant protein fragments.
