Anti-MCAT antibody produced in rabbit

产品说明

一般描述

Malonyl-CoA-acyl carrier protein transacylase (MCAT) is encoded by the gene mapped to human chromosome 22q13.2. The encoded protein contains two subdomains, where one subdomain is composed of short four-stranded parallel β-sheet and 12 helices and the other subdomain contains a four-stranded antiparallel β-sheet and two helices.

免疫原

malonyl CoA:ACP acyltransferase (mitochondrial) recombinant protein epitope signature tag (PrEST)

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

Malonyl-CoA-acyl carrier protein transacylase (MCAT) is an important enzyme involved in the fatty-acid biosynthesis pathway of bacteria. This enzyme catalyzes the transfer of a malonyl group from malonyl–CoA to the free thiol group of the phosphopantetheine arm of acyl carrier protein. In addition, it is also implicated in polyketide biosynthesis, producing one of the largest classes of secondary metabolites, such as the tetracyclines and erythromycins. Hence, MCAT is considered as a key enzyme in bacterial metabolic activity. This enzyme also serves as a potential drug target in the discovery of antibacterial agents.

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.
