General description

MARC2 (mitochondrial amidoxime reducing component 2) is a molybdenum containing enzyme, and along with MARC1, it forms a complex. It belongs to the MARC family, which forms the catalytic domain of an N-reductive complex. It has a molecular weight of 35kDa, and resides in both the inner and the outer mitochondrial membranes. It has a mitochondrial targeting signal in its N-terminal, which is succeeded by a transmembrane helical region. Molybdopterin-binding site and the active site are present in the C-terminal. This gene is localized to human chromosome 1q41.

Immunogen

MOSC domain-containing protein 2, mitochondrial precursor recombinant protein epitope signature tag (PrEST)

Application

Anti-MOSC2 antibody produced in rabbit, a Prestige Antibody, 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. The antibodies are also tested using immunofluorescence and western blotting. To view these protocols and other useful information about Prestige Antibodies and the HPA, visit sigma.com/prestige.

Biochem/physiol Actions

MARC2 (mitochondrial amidoxime reducing component 2) is a part of the catalytic domain of a tri-component enzyme complex, which activates multiple N-hydroxylated prodrugs by reducing them. As this enzyme has multiple substrates, the exact function of this enzyme is yet unknown. It is also responsible for the synthesis of nitric oxide, by the reduction of nitrite, in the presence of molybdenum.

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.

Human molybdenum-containing enzyme mitochondrial amidoxime reducing component (mARC), cytochrome b5 type B, and NADH cytochrome b5 reductase form an N-reductive enzyme system that is capable of reducing N-hydroxylated compounds. Genetic variations are known, but their functional relevance is unclear. Our

The mitochondrial amidoxime reducing component mARC is the fourth mammalian molybdenum enzyme. The protein is capable of reducing N-oxygenated structures, but requires cytochrome b5 and cytochrome b5 reductase for electron transfer to catalyze such reactions. It is well accepted that

Recent human genome-wide association studies have identified common missense variants in MARC1, p.Ala165Thr and p.Met187Lys, associated with lower hepatic fat, reduction in liver enzymes and protection from most causes of cirrhosis.
