Biliverdin reductase A (BVRA) contains a domain that acts as a serine/ threonine/ tyrosine kinase and belongs to the insulin receptor substrate family. Whereas most tyrosine kinase activity is membrane-bound, BVR is a soluble protein. BVRA gene is mapped to human chromosome 7p13.
Spezifität

Immunogen
human biliverdin reductase A recombinant protein.
Anwendung
Anti-Biliverdin Reductase A antibody produced in rabbit may be used in western blotting and immunoprecipitation.
Biochem./physiol. Wirkung
Biliverdin reductase A (BVR, BLVRA) catalyzes the conversion of biliverdin to bilirubin in the presence of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADPH) or nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NADH). Biliverdin reductase A is also considered as a major physiologic cytoprotectant and may have other protective properties in disease states. It has been shown to suppress experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis in rats. The depletion of the enzyme leads to the accumulation of cellular oxidants and augmented cell death. Mutation in the BVRA gene is implicated in hyperbiliverdinaemia or green jaundice.

Clinical studies suggest a link between peripheral insulin resistance and cognitive dysfunction. Interestingly, post-mortem analyses of Alzheimer disease (AD) subjects demonstrated insulin resistance in the brain proposing a role for cognitive deficits observed in AD. However, the mechanisms responsible for

Biliverdin reductase-A (BVR-A) is a serine/threonine/tyrosine kinase involved in the regulation of insulin signaling. In vitro studies have demonstrated that BVR-A is a substrate of the insulin receptor and regulates IRS1 by avoiding its aberrant activation, and in animal model
