General description

Carnitine palmitoyltransferase 1A (CPT1A, CPT1-L, or L-CPT1) is an hepatic enzyme that, together with CPT2 and carnitine-acylcarnitine translocase, mediates the oxidation of long chain fatty acids to produce energy, in periods of fasting. CPT1A is localized in the outer mitochondrial membrane and catalyzes the addition of carnitine to long-chain fatty acids thereby enabling effective transport of these molecules to the inner mitochondrial membrane where they are metabolized. CPT1A may function as part of a complex consisting of the acyl-CoA synthetase (ACSL) and the voltage-dependent anion channel (VDAC) and is regulated by malonyl-CoA. Deficiencies in CPT1A result in hypoketotic hypoglycemia.

Immunogen

GST-tagged recombinant protein corresponding to rat CPT1A.

Application

Detect CPT1A using this Anti-CPT1A Antibody validated for use in Western Blotting.

Signaling
Research Sub Category
Developmental Signaling

Quality

Evaluated by Western Blot in mouse liver tissue lysate.

Western Blot Analysis: A 1:1,000 dilution of this antibody detected CPT1A on 10 µg of mouse liver tissue lysate.

Target description

~78 kDa observed. An uncharacterized band appears at ~32 kDa in some lysates. The calculated molecular weight is 88 kDa, however CPT1A has been shown as a ~78 kDa band in western blots (Tan, L., et al (2011). J Inherit Metab Dis. 34:443–447.)

Physical form

Rabbit polyclonal serum containing 0.05% sodium azide.
Unpurified

Storage and Stability

Stable for 1 year at -20°C from date of receipt.
Handling Recommendations: Upon receipt and prior to removing the cap, centrifuge the vial and gently mix the solution. Aliquot into microcentrifuge tubes and store at -20°C. Avoid repeated freeze/thaw cycles, which may damage IgG and affect product performance.

Hydroxysteroid (17β) dehydrogenases (HSD17Bs) form an enzyme family characterized by their ability to catalyze reactions in steroid and lipid metabolism. In the present study, we characterized the phenotype of HSD17B13-knockout (HSD17B13KO) mice deficient in Hsd17b13. In these studies, hepatic steatosis

Inhibiting lipogenesis prevents hepatic steatosis in rodents with insulin resistance. To determine if reducing lipogenesis functions similarly in humans, we developed MK-4074, a liver-specific inhibitor of acetyl-CoA carboxylase (ACC1) and (ACC2), enzymes that produce malonyl-CoA for fatty acid synthesis.
