REACH authorisation
Abcam has not and does not intend to apply for the REACH Authorisation of customers' uses of products that contain European Authorisation list (Annex XIV) substances.
It is the responsibility of our customers to check the necessity of application of REACH Authorisation, and any other relevant authorisations, for their intended uses.
Lysate preparation:
Our lysates are made using RIPA buffer to which we add a protease inhibitor cocktail and phosphatase inhibitor cocktail (ratio: 300:100:10).
This means that the protein of interest is denatured.
If you require a native form of the protein please use the live cell version. Please refer to our lysis protocol for further details on how our lysates are prepared.
User storage instructions:
Lyophilizate may be stored at 4°C. After reconstitution, store at -20°C for short-term storage or -80°C for long-term storage.

Cbr1 also known as carbonyl reductase 1 is an important enzyme in the reduction of carbonyl compounds to their alcohol forms. It weighs around 30 kDa and exhibits a wide expression across various tissues but is notably present in the liver and heart. The enzyme acts as a monomer and follows an NADPH-dependent mechanism for its action playing an important role in the detoxification of xenobiotics and the metabolism of endogenous compounds.
Biological function summary
Carbonyl reductase 1 functions in the metabolism of prostaglandins steroids and aromatic aldehydes. Cbr1 is not known to form part of a larger protein complex but acts independently to execute its enzymatic roles. It exhibits broad substrate specificity allowing it to reduce a variety of carbonyl groups which influences several physiological processes such as lipid metabolism and hormone synthesis.
Pathways
The enzyme plays an important role in the prostaglandin metabolic pathway where it reduces prostaglandin E2. Additionally Cbr1 interacts within the retinol metabolism pathway. In these pathways it functions alongside proteins such as aldo-keto reductases and aldose reductase sharing substrate specificity which impacts cellular responses and metabolic regulation.
Cbr1 influences the development of drug resistance in cancer therapy particularly in anthracycline-treated cancers due to its role in drug metabolism. It also associates with cardiovascular conditions where its metabolic activity might affect oxidative stress levels. Connections with other proteins such as superoxide dismutases link Cbr1 to oxidative stress response pathways impacting disease progression and therapy outcomes.
