Specificity

Uncoupling Protein 1 (UCP1), mouse. Mouse/rat UCP1 is a 307 amino acid mitochondrial uncoupling protein (Bouillaud et al. 1986; Ridley et al. 1986; Kozak et al. 1988; Cassard et al. 1990; Miroux et al. 1993). It is only 59% homologous with UCP2 (Fleury et al. 1997). Human UCP1 is located on chromosome 4 (Bouillaud et al. 1986; Ridley et al. 1986; Kozak et al. 1988; Cassard et al. 1990; Miroux et al. 1993). UCP1 is primarily expressed in brown adipose tissues.

The antibody has not yet been tested for cross-reactivity to other species. The sequence used for immunization shows 100% homology to rat, 91% with golden hamster, 83% with rabbit and 75% with human and canine UCP1.

Immunogen

A 12 aa peptide at the C-terminus of the mouse/rat UCP1 (Bouillaud et al. 1986; Ridley et al. 1986; Kozak et al. 1988; Cassard et al. 1990; Miroux et al. 1993).

Application

Detect Uncoupling Protein 1 using this Anti-Uncoupling Protein 1 Antibody validated for use in ELISA & WB.
Western Blotting: 1-10 μg/mL using Chemiluminescence technique. An antibody made to this epitope has detected a protein of ~32 kDa in brown adipose tissues (Feil & Rafael 1994).

ELISA: 1:10,000-1:100,000; using 50-100 ng UCP1 control peptide/well.

Optimal working dilutions must be determined by end user.

Physical form

Affinity purified immunoglobulin. Liquid in PBS with less than 0.1% sodium azide.

Thermogenic adipocytes possess a promising approach to combat obesity with its capability promoting energy metabolism. We previously discovered that deletion of GPR30 (GPRKO), a presumably membrane-associated estrogen receptor, protected female mice from developing obesity, glucose intolerance, and insulin resistance when

Adult obesity risk is influenced by alterations to fetal and neonatal environments. Modifying neonatal gut or neurohormone signaling pathways can have negative metabolic consequences in adulthood. Here we characterize the effect of neonatal activation of glucagon like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor

The functional contribution of CNV to human biology and disease pathophysiology has undergone limited exploration. Recent observations in humans indicate a tentative link between CNV and weight regulation. Smith-Magenis syndrome (SMS), manifesting obesity and hypercholesterolemia, results from a deletion CNV
