Species Reactivity: Human Source / Purification Monoclonal antibody is produced by immunizing animals with a synthetic peptide corresponding to residues surrounding Leu120 of human AGPS protein. Background Genome-wide CRISPR-Cas9 suppressor screens show that peroxisomes contribute to ferroptosis in human renal and ovarian carcinoma cells by synthesizing polyunsaturated ether phospholipids (PUFA-ePLs). PUFA-ePLs serve as substrates for lipid peroxidation. Genes identified in the screens include those for alkylglycerone phosphate synthase (AGPS) and fatty acyl-CoA reductase 1 (FAR1), two peroxisomal enzymes catalyzing ether lipid biosynthesis. Studies suggest that AGPS and FAR1 contribute to ferroptosis sensitivity (1,2). In addition, research studies show that AGPS suppresses prostate cancer cell proliferation by enhancing ferroptosis (3).
