Mitochondrially encoded cytochrome b (MT-CYB; CYTB) is encoded by mitochondrial DNA.
Immunogeno
Synthetic peptide directed towards the N terminal region of human CYTB
Applicazioni
Anti-CYTB antibody produced in rabbit is suitable for western blotting at a concentration of 1.0μg/ml.
Azioni biochim/fisiol
Mitochondrially encoded cytochrome b (MT-CYB; CYTB) is a component of complex III mitochondrial respiratory chain. Mutations in CYTB are associated with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy and Leber′s hereditary optic neuropathy. CYTB is up-regulated in uterine leiomyomas compared with myometrium tissues. Homoplasmic alteration in CYTB has been associated with colorectal cancer. Mutation in CYTB is also detected in primary bladder cancer patient. Cleaved CYTB protein functions as cytoplasmic mediator of FAS-induced apoptosis.

Mitochondrial dysfunction is a characteristic of heart failure. Mutations in mitochondrial DNA, particularly in MT-CYB coding for cytochrome B in complex III (CIII), have been associated with isolated hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM). We hypothesized that MT-CYB mutations might play an important

Functional selection of genetic suppressor elements (GSEs), engineered gene fragments that interfere with the function of a particular gene product, was used to identify regulators of FAS-induced apoptosis. Chicken DF-1 cells expressing human FAS receptor and susceptible to FAS-induced apoptosis
Four new missense mutations have been identified through restriction analysis and sequencing of the mitochondrial DNAs (mtDNA) from Leber's hereditary optic neuropathy (LHON) patients who lacked the previously identified 11778 mutation. Each altered a conserved amino acid and correlated with
