Target description

Phenylalanine-4-hydroxylase (UniProt: P00439; also known as EC:1.14.16.1, PAH, Phe-4-monooxygenase) is encoded by the PAH gene (Gene ID: 5053) in human. Phenylalanine-4-hydroxylase (PAH) is a rate-limiting, homodimeric enzyme that catalyzes the hydroxylation of L-phenylalanine to L-tyrosine by para-hydroxylation of the aromatic side-chain. It can also exist as a homotetramer. Its N-terminal region contains an allosteric binding site for phenylalanine and an inhibitory domain that regulates the activity of a catalytic domain in the C-terminal region. It uses tetrahydrobiopterin (BH4) and a non-heme iron for catalysis. In this reaction, BH4 functions as a co-substrate that is also hydroxylated at each turnover to pterin-4 carbinolamine (4a-OH-BH4), with consequent dissociation from the enzyme. The dehydration and reduction of 4a-OH-BH4 back to BH4 is catalyzed sequentially by pterin carbinolamine dehydratase. PAH deficiency results in the inability to convert the essential amino acid phenylalanine into tyrosine. It leads to hyperphenylalaninemia, the most common disorder in amino acid metabolism. PAH has an obligatory cofactor, tetrahydrobiopterin (BH4). Mutations in PAH gene have been linked to severe phenylketonuria, an autosomal recessive disorder that is characterized by high blood concentrations of phenylalanine, low tyrosine, and intellectual disability. 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 with 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

300 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.
