Target description

Fatty acid synthase (UniProt: P49327; EC:2.3.1.85, Type I fatty acid synthase, FASN) is encoded by the FASN (also known as FAS) gene (Gene ID: 2194) in human. FASN is a ubiquitous enzyme that displays prominent expression in brain, lung, liver, and mammary glands. It is a multifunctional complex enzyme that catalyzes de novo synthesis of long-chain saturated fatty acids starting from acetyl-CoA and malonyl-CoA in the presence of NADPH. This entire reaction is composed of numerous sequential reactions and acyl intermediates, each catalyzed by a specific enzyme activity. FASN is present as a homodimer arranged in a head to tail fashion. It contains seven catalytic activities and a site for the binding of the prosthetic group 4′-phosphopantetheine of the acyl carrier protein (ACP) domain. Its unique carboxyl terminal thioesterase domain(aa 2207-2511) hydrolyzes the growing fatty acid chain and plays a critical role in regulating the chain length of fatty acid released. FASN is activated by nitrosylation at cysteine 1471 or Cysteine 2091. In adipocytes S-nitrosylation is shown to occur under physiological conditions and gradually increases during adipogenesis. In addition to its role in fatty acid synthesis, it also plays an important role during embryonic development. Although in all nonmalignant adult tissues FASN expression is low, it is significantly up-regulated in many cancer types. Cerulenin, a potent non-competitive pharmacological inhibitor of FASN, binds covalently to the active site of the condensing enzyme region and inactivates a key enzyme step in fatty acid synthesis. This ZooMAb^® recombinant monoclonal antibody, generated by our propriety technology, offers significantly enhanced specificity, affinity, reproducibility, and stability over conventional monoclonals.

Physical form

Purified recombinant rabbit monoclonal antibody IgG, lyophilized in PBS, 5% Trehalose, normal appearance a coarse or translucent resin. The PBS/trehalose components in the ZooMAb formulation can have the appearance of a semi-solid (bead like gel) after lyophilization. This is a normal phenomenon. Please follow the recommended reconstitution procedure in the data sheet to dissolve the semi-solid, bead-like, gel-appearing material. The resulting antibody solution is completely stable and functional as proven by full functional testing. Contains no biocide or preservatives, such as azide, or any animal by-products. Larger pack sizes provided as multiples of 25 μL.

Reconstitution

30 μg/mL after reconstitution at 25 μL per vial. Please refer to guidance on suggested starting dilutions and/or titers per application and sample type.

Storage and Stability

Recommend storage of lyophilized product at 2-8°C; Before reconstitution, micro-centrifuge vials briefly to spin down material to bottom of the vial; Reconstitute each vial by adding 25 μL of filtered lab grade water or PBS; Reconstituted antibodies can be stored at 2-8°C, or -20°C for long term storage. Avoid repeated freeze-thaws.
