CST, 72322SF, Pyruvate Dehydrogenase (C54G1) Rabbit Monoclonal Antibody (BSA and Azide Free)

Monoclonal Antibody for studying PDHA1. Validated for Western Blotting,Immunohistochemistry (Paraffin). Highly specific and rigorously validated in-house, Pyruvate Dehydrogenase (C54G1) Rabbit Monoclonal Antibody (BSA and Azide Free) (CST #72322) is ready to ship. Product Usage Information This product is the carrier free version of product #3205. All data were generated using the same antibody clone in the standard formulation which contains BSA and glycerol. This formulation is ideal for use with technologies requiring specialized or custom antibody labeling, including fluorophores, metals, lanthanides, and oligonucleotides. It is not recommended for ChIP, ChIP-seq, CUT&RUN or CUT&Tag assays. If you require a carrier free formulation for chromatin profiling, please contact us . Optimal dilutions/concentrations should be determined by the end user. BSA and Azide Free antibodies are quality control tested by size exclusion chromatography (SEC) to determine antibody integrity. Formulation Supplied in 1X PBS (10 mM Na 2 HPO 4 , 3 mM KCl, 2 mM KH 2 PO 4 , and 140 mM NaCl (pH 7.8)). BSA and Azide Free. For standard formulation of this product see product # 3205 Storage Store at -20°C. This product will freeze at -20°C so it is recommended to aliquot into single-use vials to avoid multiple freeze/thaw cycles. A slight precipitate may be present and can be dissolved by gently vortexing. This will not interfere with antibody performance. Specificity / Sensitivity Pyruvate Dehydrogenase (C54G1) Rabbit Monoclonal Antibody (BSA and Azide Free) detects endogenous levels of total pyruvate dehydrogenase α1 subunit. Species Reactivity: Human, Mouse, Rat, Monkey Source / Purification Monoclonal antibody is produced by immunizing animals with a synthetic peptide corresponding to residues surrounding Asp112 of human pyruvate dehydrogenase protein. Background The pyruvate dehydrogenase complex catalyzes the conversion of pyruvate and CoA into acetyl-CoA and CO in the presence of NAD . Acetyl-CoA then goes into the citric acid cycle where it reacts with oxaloacetate to form citrate. The reaction of oxidative decarboxylation of pyruvate serves as a critical link between glycolysis and the citric acid cycle. In mammalian cells, the pyruvate dehydrogenase complex is located in the mitochondrial matrix (1). This complex is composed of three enzymes: pyruvate dehydrogenase (E1), dihydrolipoamide acetyltransferase (E2), and dihydrolipoamide dehydrogenase (E3). Pyruvate dehydrogenase (E1) consists of two subunits: α and β. This enzyme catalyzes the removal of CO from pyruvate. Mutations in the α subunits of pyruvate dehydrogenase (E1) lead to congenital defects that are usually associated with lactic acidosis, neurodegeneration, and early death (2).
