Protocol Available protocols: Western Blotting, Immunoprecipitation Specificity / Sensitivity DAG Lipase alpha (D3G8H) Rabbit Monoclonal Antibody recognizes endogenous levels of total DAG lipase α protein. This antibody is not predicted to cross-react with DAG lipase β based on sequence homology of the antigen. Species Reactivity: Human, Mouse, Rat Source / Purification Monoclonal antibody is produced by immunizing animals with a synthetic peptide corresponding to residues surrounding Ser791 of human DAG lipase α protein. Background Diacylglycerol (DAG) lipases comprise two enzymes called DAG lipase α and β, which are the products of two related genes (1). DAG lipases are transmembrane proteins composed of a short amino-terminal intracellular domain, four transmembrane domains, and a large carboxy-terminal cytoplasmic domain containing the active site. These enzymes are responsible for the biosynthesis of 2-acylglycerol from diacylglycerol in a calcium-dependent manner (1). One of the major endocannabinoid ligands that activate cannabinoid receptors, 2-arachidonyl glycerol (2-AG), is produced by DAG lipases (2). Research studies suggest that DAG lipase α is the isoform primarily responsible for the central production of 2-AG (3). DAG lipase β has been implicated in studies of 2-AG production at the periphery in specific cell types and pathophysiological contexts, such as in hepatic stellate cells during alcohol induced fatty liver (4).
