HMG-coenzyme A synthase 2 (mitochondrial) (HMGCS2) is the mitochondrial form of HMG-CoA synthase, the enzyme that catalyzes the condensation of acetyl-CoA with acetoacetyl-CoA to form HMG-CoA. HMG-CoA synthase 2 regulates and rate-limits ketone body production and mitochondrial fatty acid oxidation within liver cells and some extrahepatic tissues such as the colon.
Especificidad
Anti-HMGCS2 (AB1) polyclonal antibody reacts with bovine, human, mouse, rat, canine, pig, and chicken HMG-coenzyme A synthase 2 proteins.
Inmunógeno
synthetic peptide corresponding to a region of human HMGCS2 with an internal ID of P24247
Aplicación
Anti-HMGCS2 (AB1) polyclonal antibody is used to tag the HMG-coenzyme A synthase 2 for detection and quantitation by Western blotting and in plasma by immunohistochemical (IHC) techniques. It is used as a probe to determine the roles of HMG-coenzyme A synthase 2 in ketone body production and mitochondrial fatty acid oxidation within hepatic and other tissues.
Forma física
Lyophilized from PBS buffer with 2% sucrose

Diet has a profound effect on tissue regeneration in diverse organisms, and low caloric states such as intermittent fasting have beneficial effects on organismal health and age-associated loss of tissue function. The role of adult stem and progenitor cells in
Little is known about how metabolites couple tissue-specific stem cell function with physiology. Here we show that, in the mammalian small intestine, the expression of Hmgcs2 (3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl-CoA synthetase 2), the gene encoding the rate-limiting enzyme in the production of ketone
We have previously proposed that catabolic fibroblasts generate mitochondrial fuels (such as ketone bodies) to promote the anabolic growth of human cancer cells and their metastasic dissemination. We have termed this new paradigm "two-compartment tumor metabolism." Here, we further tested
Little is known about how pro-obesity diets regulate tissue stem and progenitor cell function. Here we show that high-fat diet (HFD)-induced obesity augments the numbers and function of Lgr5(+) intestinal stem cells of the mammalian intestine. Mechanistically, a HFD induces

Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDA) tumor cells are deprived of oxygen and nutrients and therefore must adapt their metabolism to ensure proliferation. In some physiological states, cells rely on ketone bodies to satisfy their metabolic needs, especially during nutrient stress. Here
