Descripción

General description

The gene ACAT2 (acetyl-CoA acetyltransferase 2) is mapped to human chromosome 6q25.3. It is a transmembrane enzyme. It is mainly expressed in enterocytes in the small intestine and hepatocytes.

Immunogen

Acetyl-CoA acetyltransferase, cytosolic recombinant protein epitope signature tag (PrEST)

Application

All Prestige Antibodies^®Powered by Atlas Antibodies is developed and validated by the Human Protein Atlas (HPA) project . Each antibody is tested by immunohistochemistry against hundreds of normal and disease tissues. These images can be viewed on the Human Protein Atlas (HPA) site by clicking on the Image Gallery link. We also provide Prestige Antibodies^® protocols and other useful information.
Anti-ACAT2 antibody produced in rabbit has been used for western blotting.

Biochem/physiol Actions

ACAT2 (acetyl-CoA acetyltransferase 2) is responsible for the production of cholesteryl esters from cholesterol and fatty acids. In mouse model, absence of intestinal or hepatic ACAT2 results in atheroprotective effects. Thus, it is suggested as a target for treatment of hypercholesterolemia. Mutations in this gene are associated with changes in plasma lipid levels and coronary artery disease (CAD) risk.

Features and Benefits

Prestige Antibodies^® are highly characterized and extensively validated antibodies with the added benefit of all available characterization data for each target being accessible via the Human Protein Atlas portal linked just below the product name at the top of this page. The uniqueness and low cross-reactivity of the Prestige Antibodies^® to other proteins are due to a thorough selection of antigen regions, affinity purification, and stringent selection. Prestige antigen controls are available for every corresponding Prestige Antibody and can be found in the linkage section.

Every Prestige Antibody is tested in the following ways:

• IHC tissue array of 44 normal human tissues and 20 of the most common cancer type tissues.
• Protein array of 364 human recombinant protein fragments.

Linkage

Corresponding Antigen APREST77420

Physical form

Solution in phosphate-buffered saline, pH 7.2, containing 40% glycerol and 0.02% sodium azide
